I'm trying to use GeoModel python module to quickly access geospatial data for my Google App Engine app. I just have a few general questions for issues I'm running into. There's two main methods, proximity_fetch and bounding_box_fetch, that you can use to return queries. They actually return a result set, not a filtered query, which mea...
Google Maps can now pinpoint my location with street precision with the help of Firefox. I understand this is a new feature of HTML 5 compatible browsers and that the location is fetched by using some sort of feature of the connected WiFi network (I hope I'm not making any silly assumptions).
