In this quick chat, I caught up with Alvin Poh, to find out what innovation he has been working on. Dubbed “Schools Near Me”, the application allows us to use a Postal Code, retrieve a set of GPS coordinates and pulls a map from Virtual Earth and overlay data onto the map to provide meaningful services and information. As the name suggests, this applications allows us to find all the schools around where I stay. http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/yizhe/Schools-Near-Me-Virtual-Earth Tue, 17 Jun 2008 07:10:00 GMT http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/yizhe/Schools-Near-Me-Virtual-Earth yizhe yizhe 4 http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/yizhe/Schools-Near-Me-Virtual-Earth/RSS SQL Data Mining In a recent Heroes Community Launch, Dennis (IT Pro Evangelist) caught up with SQL Server MVP, Wee Hyong, who is one of the brains behind a local community event. The event combines 3 local community groups and runs a full day of topics, Tech.Ed style. Wee Hyong discusses about how he applied Data Mining techniques to help with generating more personalized experience and what Data Mining could do to drive the communities forward. The introduction of Data Mining opens new doors and modes of engagements for User Group community.”

He will also be talking about the new spatial support found in the CTP.

This is part 1 of a 3 part series. In Part 2, he will be doing a deep dive in the 2 new spatial data types (geography and geometry), along with spatial indexing.

This demo has resonated quite well with the attendees at the event.  A number of them wanted to see the code so they can build a "here are my stores" map and embedded into their web sites.  As such, I just recorded a video of me doing the exact same demo but with more commentary of my code.  Here's Chewy's video and a copy of the resulting code from the video demo.

Code

The Postal2Gps web service used is a web service we built to wrap a raw JSP service from Best.SG.  You need to sign up for a developer ID from Best.SG to make use of their service.  The web service wrapper we used will be updated by the end of Oct to allow you to type in your own developer ID.
