Rick,
The David Rumsey Historical Map Collection provides one of the best examples
you will find of cutting edge Internet GIS technologies combined with
compelling on-line geospatial content. From a user perspective, this public
access site is completely vendor neutral and platform independent, requiring
the user only to have a web browser (IE, Netscape, AOL) and a decent
Internet connection. The site includes two browser-based GIS interfaces
designed for the GIS novice as well as the GIS professional user. Both user
interfaces include revolutionary tools for interactive on-line image/map
comparison, analysis, and visualization: http://www.davidrumsey.com/gis.
Another unique feature of this resource is the interactive Web 3D Viewer for
selected historical maps (currently San Francisco, Los Angeles, Lake Tahoe,
Yosemite Valley, Lewis & Clark Expedition Route):
http://www.davidrumsey.com/3D.htm.
Our Company (Telemorphic, Inc.) created these public access Internet GIS and
Web 3D resources on behalf of the David Rumsey Collection. The site makes
extensive use of commercially available off-the-shelf software (Maplicity,
ArcIMS, ArcGIS, and Virtools) to provide a enhanced functionality,
scalability, and value with a minimal investment of resources.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly. Good
luck with your GIS course, and keep up the good work!
Best regards,
Todd

Subject: [gislist] project examples on the web
I was wondering if anyone had some good links to GIS projects on the web
that I could point my students to. These are first semester, non-GIS
students taking a mandatory GIS course in a 2 year environmental
management diploma program. I thought if they could see examples of
some of the things going on out there, it might get them excited. They
will have an integrated GPS/GIS project to do before the end of the
semester using ArcView 3.3.
Thanks millions.
