Flat Out Resuscitation

with 2 comments

One of my goals this year was to revive my GIS blog, which suffered much neglect over the last year. In fact, I was even scrapped after the Planet Spatial Reboot. After reviewing some of my older posts I decided to start with a clean slate. The posts really didn’t add any value, so I wiped them out and am starting fresh.

I have a pile of ideas for blog topics saved up, but nothing to show as of yet. With a renewed focus on quality content, I’ll be taking a retrospective look over the last year on my experience with:

  • ASP.NET/ASP.NET Ajax
  • OO JavaScript
  • Abandoning ArcGIS Server for Google Maps
  • SQL Server 2008
  • Open Source GIS (MapGuide, FDO, OpenLayers…)

At the same time, I’ll also be digging into some new territory as I’m starting a new job. While I’m not completely unfamiliar with these items, I’ll definitely be taking more of a deep dive:

  • Java web development
  • ArcGIS Server 9.3
  • Weather GIS
  • REST
  • WMS/WFS/WCS

It should be quite interesting going from .NET to Java land, and to also be getting back into ArcGIS Server again. Happy reading…
