Does anyone know of a good even paid API for mapping to get GEO stuff.
I am really frustrated with google map giving poor results even though it beats all others.
I have tried so far.
Can anyone suggest other good services ?
Hope ya CAN !
I'm assuming you've tried ArcGIS and ArcView? This might be a little more than what you are looking for.
Check for Navdata website. Its very expensive but is cool and is used in almost GPS software.
I can highly reccomend deCarta. They were the engine that Google and Yahoo started on. They are used by VZNavigator, Tmobile, Samsung, Nokia, and many other companies.
Their developer zone is free and you can it out there.
Try an API that can consume WMS and WFS, in addition to imagery. I highly recommend a JavaScript API called OpenLayers, which can consume Google, Bing, WMS, WFS, KML, and your own custom services.
