This 200 page revised edition of Microsoft Mapping includes the
latest details about SQL Server 2014 and the new 3D and
Streetside-capable map control for Windows 10 applications. It
contains updated chapters on Microsoft Azure and Power Map for
Excel plus a new chapter on Bing Maps for Universal Windows. The
book tells a story, from beginning to end, of planning and
deploying a single geospatial application built using Microsoft
technologies from end-to-end. Readers are expected to have basic
familiarity with the fundamentals of developing for Microsoft
platforms (some understanding of basic SQL, C#, .NET, and WCF); as
readers work through the book they will build on their existing
skills so that they will be able to deploy geospatial applications
for social networking, data collection, enterprise management, or
other purposes. Microsoft Mapping Second Edition provides: The only
full book for developers who want to create location-aware apps
using the Windows 10 platform Fully working code samples that show
the concepts in use with ASP.NET 4.5 and Windows 10. Complete
solutions to the common problems of geospatial development:
visualization, hosting and localization of services are all
explained. Demonstrates how the Bing Maps API can be connected to
the Azure Cloud in order to provide a stand-alone mapping bolt-on
with little additional up-front cost and great reliability. Unique
coverage of how the Bing Maps API can be implanted within Windows
and Windows Phone applications for Windows 10 applications to
provide a robust service tailored to the capabilities of each
device.Coverage of the new Windows 10 Bing Maps control, which
supports viewing Streetside and aerial data.
Geospatial mapping applications have become hugely popular in
recent years. With smart-phone and tablet numbers snow-balling this
trend looks set to continue well into the future. Indeed, it is
true to say that in today's mobile world location-aware apps are
becoming the norm rather than the exception. In Microsoft Mapping
author Ray Rischpater showcases Microsoft's Bing Maps API and
demonstrates how its integration features make it by far the
strongest mapping candidate for business that are already using
Windows 8 or the .NET Framework. Whether you want to build a new
app from scratch of add a few modest geospatial features to your
existing website Ray's carefully chosen examples will provide you
with both the inspiration and the code you need to achieve your
goals. What you'll learn * Fully working code samples that show the
