Mush

August 3rd, 2007

Sean Gillies has been experimenting with a web service, Mush. It takes two GeoRSS feeds and calculates the “sphere of influence”, or spatial intersection, of the two feeds.

Perhaps it’s part of a trend (hopefully) for more “analytical” services in “neogeography”.

The Planning Alerts GeoRSS API was used as a clever example. In combination with a GeoRSS feed of Celtic coins, it shows areas where development activities might unearth more coins — actually sounds useful!

    This kind of geo-processing would be a sweet feature for Mapstraction too.
