Hi Sebastian,

You need to download the source to add your own data to TME. I'm working on a more flexible solution.

I love your idea, just wish that it would be more flexible with the data input - is there the possibility to include Cancer mortality from UNdata which I would love to visualise for a presentation at my university?

Friendly notice for you of a little bug I just found...
When I type a big number in the number of classes, it says 'engine failed'. (Actually, sometimes even you input 10, it says engine failed)..

Maybe you forgot some error check on the relationship between numOfDistinctValues and numOfDefinedClasses. If(numOfDistinctValues '<'numOfDefinedClasses), the situation is the same as unclassified.

You might want to take a look at this:)

But, I am still stuned by what you did!

Hi Bjorn,

Thak you so much for the amazing Blog. I learned lots of things on thematic maps thanks to you.
Any chance you release the source code of TME in the future ?

What should I do to make the kml/kmz work in google maps? It loads fine in GE but when I upload the file, google maps complains about the kmz format

2008-09-07T06:32:00.000+01:00

Hi,
I am amazed with the wonderful tool you have developed.

I am not familiar with PostGIS, MySQL and Php programming, but only VB, Access and Excel. I have some country statistics in MS-Excel and MS-Access that I would like to see ploted in a kml format. So I have 1 questions and 2 suggestion.
Question: Do you have the code in VB to read from shapefile and another code to create a KML file? Since I think you may not have it at hand, I have a suggestion.
Suggestions: The engine you developed is great, so why don't you develop a format in DBF or TXT/CSV, so that any user could upload a file (with country name/index and the statistics) to the engine, make all the setup and receive a nice KML file? It would be also lovely to have a stand-alone version of the engine to run it in a Windows environment.

Thank you in advance and congratulations for your nice blog.

Hi it is wonderful

Hi i have a client jps application.
It produce tabular data.
Is it possible use your engine as server to produce thematic maps?
I wish to have a mush-up solution for Spatial OLAP.

Thanks

2008-08-05T18:00:00.000+01:00

You should be able to do that by wrapping the borders into different Folders and attach timestamps to the folders. It is actually what the Thematic Mapping Engine is doing, except that the borders are repeated for each time period.

Any possibiltiy of putting in country borders in a timeline? So for example, you can see the Roman Empire expand, then collapse.

I'd like to use your tool and try to integrate in my own mapfish application. Would you share the source ? (guru_wireless@yahoo.fr)

Hi Bjørn

cool tool. However when using danish æ,ø and å in description fields it's look strange. Do you plan to support all the unicode characters for your tool?

Absolutely amazing! Thx!

2008-06-11T20:25:00.000+01:00

I see. The geographical units will for sure not be countries - so the current version of TME will not help you. I plan to add support for different geographical units at a later stage.

You could try GMapCreator from CASA.

2008-06-11T19:33:00.000+01:00

I am new to the GE community so the geographical units I am not fully aware of as of yet. My focus is primarily in the Middle East in Iraq. I want to be able to show in GE the most dominant to least dominant of the Sunni, Shia, and Shi'ite religion due to their "geographical location" in that particular area. So if you could provide an example of what I describe, I would like to stay in contact with you to possibly learn more about how to embed this type of information across the GE community. This is totally a non-profit organization. We are working to aid the military for better strategical learning of environmental differences.

Thanks

Hi Earl,

Your project sounds interesting. What are the geographical units of the "ethnical dominance" data?

If you have data on country level - I'm happy to include samples in my database, as long as the data can be used without restrictions (non-profit use).
