If you've ever tried to find a way to display an ESRI ShapeFile on a Virtual Earth map, you'll have probably noticed how little information there is on the Internet about how to accomplish this apparently arduous task. As a matter of fact, I needed to do exactly this while adding some collateral features to the software Serena and I are developing for ......

In this article we'll see how easy it is to use Virtual Earth SDK to produce a simple mashup, using web services that provide information in JSON format. Live Demo - Source Code If you are not familiar with JSON or how to integrate JSON services in ASP.NET AJAX applications, you can take a look at my 3-part series of articles on JSON and ASP.NET AJAX ......

This is the third part of a series of articles on ASP.NET AJAX and JSON. If you haven't read part 1 and part 2 of this series, you are strongly advised to do so before going on to read this article. Let's take what we've seen so far on JSON and ASP.NET one step further, and discover how we can leverage the ASP.NET AJAX infastructure to make the managing ......

Often, when dealing with mathematical models for hazard estimation, one has to make the most out of just a handful of experimental data, and try to extract a rule or a behavioural function. While the use of lookup charts printed on paper may sometimes be a viable option, we won’t be able to rely on it when we want to implement a software solution. When ......

Now, after the very futile example which accompanied the introduction to JavaScript Object Notation in my last post (by the way, I forgot to mention that this is what the fancy acronym stands for, but I'm sure you already knew that), let's go straight to the fun part, and see how we can leverage the flexibility of JSON (and ASP.NET AJAX, of course) ......

If you are a web developer, and you haven't been living under a rock for most of the past year, you must at least have heard of JSON. In the wake of the tremendous hype relating to everything even vaguely AJAX-related, JSON has climbed in record time the list of the top 10 technologies a web developer has to master. Let's make it clear from the start: ......

Hi, this is our first post. We finally decided to set up a blog where to write about our development experiences. We're both Computer Engineering students and .NET programmers. Our interest is mainly focused on Web Development, using ASP.NET, SQL Server, CSS, and (recently) Javascript. We're also interested in developing soft-computing models for risk ......
