Getting back on track

After quite a gap, due to commitments at work and co-writing a paper for ALIA09, I am getting back on track and doing the required postings for finishing the 21 Lunges program. I actually read ahead and investigated all the recommended sites, but neglected to do my homework and post my observations on my blog. So, now it’s catch up time and Daniel will be monitoring this to keep me on track and headed towards the finish line.
Week 13 has seen me looking at mapping and mashups. I looked at the examples of mashups provided and of course have seen them when looking at interactive maps. I found an interactive map of flights in and out of the Netherlands and today when following my AFL team, live action tracking players across the oval. I started considering the application for our library and I would really like to pursue the possibility of our current print maps (of different site libraries) being online with the capability of mousing over and having pop up views of the actual site and position in the library, with maybe a few words of explanation.
