GEO 2.0 , an introduction, by Tanguy De Lestré, AGORIA

GEO 2.0 = WEB 2.0 within Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Enables visualisations of cartographic data, withouth prior technological know-how

Key concept 1: Geotagging Process of adding geographical identification to various media such images and is a form of geospatial metadata (source wikipedia)

Geotagging example : Google maps- user generated control included

Key concept 2 :Geo-mashup “ A mashup is a webpage or a webapplication where data can be combined of different sources” (source: Wikipedia) GEO mashup combines maps with underlaying data.

Geo-mashup example : San-Francisco lowest Price Gas finder http://207.45.186.82/~mdelfs/iphone/sanfrangas/index/index.html

Key concept 3: Web distributionPLATFORM

Content creation by end-user in collaborative way

Easy transfer of data to GPS device or mobile phone

Example Platform : create workout jogging route on mobile, webshare and export easily the GPS tracks ( http://sportstracker.nokia.com)

Key concept 4: Crowdsourcing or concept of ‘outsourcing’ innovation to a large ‘crowd’:users participate in making changes to geografic spatial data.

Active crowdsourcing : participation in map drawing Examples : Open street map edit function; TomTom mapshare edit street name function.

Passive crowdsourcing : mobile location information sourced for better navigation Example: RTBF mobilinfo from be-mobile

Localised user generated travel 'city' guides Social networks that use localisation aspects and geotagging Price shopping and combine on and offline shops GPS track

Insert routeyouprintscreen GPS tracks to share and export; Example: Routeyou.be

Social mobile community networks Example : one click or no click upload of own pictures and GPS coordinates from mobile phone (N79, iphone,…) to Shozu, Gypsii, Pelago, Loopt,…

Price shopping that combine on and offline shop(s) and reviews Example: Pongr, Shopsavvy

Localised User Generated travel 'city' guides ; Example WERTAGO (nightlife), Urbanspoon (transport, food,…)
