Fotowiki: distributed map enhancement service

Published: 23 October 2006 Publication History

Abstract

Fotowiki (FW) is a wiki-based map service that integrates visual and textual information with map. FW divides a geographical area into sub-areas. An individual responsible for providing information about a sub-area enters collected data into a wiki page. FW uploads distributed wiki-pages, and overlays the information on the map. This demonstration shows FW's architecture and functionalities.
