I posted something in July about how to geotag a photo or image and link it to Google Earth. 7 Things You Should Know About Mapping Mashups, is a 2 page guide from Educause. Here is the abstract:
"Mapping mashups use online mapping services, such as those offered by Google or Yahoo, to display customized, clickable markers showing points of interest and related information. In the classroom, they can place lessons in a rich geographical context and increase interactivity. They can be useful for spatial display of research data or for enhancing information on campus Web sites."
The guide struck me as too thin for comfort on practical examples and "how to" guides. What it really needs is an additional section of links of the form "to find out about this, go here, about that, go there". Suggestions?
