What's New
- We have just launched GeoWeb Guru - a new community website for users and developers of the geospatial web. The new site has articles, information, discussion forums, and a download directory. If you wish to work with the geospatial web and other online mapping applications, then you will find this new site invaluable.
- Our new MPMileage Mileage Computation Tool has recently been launched. MPMileage computes point-to-point route mileages and travel times. Unlike our popular MileCharter add-in which computes mileage tables, MPMileage calculates a list of routes specified in a database. MPMileage is also capable of fully utilizing modern multi-core computers, allowing it to run significantly faster than MileCharter. Further information can be found on the MPMileage website.
- In partnership with MP2KMag.com, our Mapping-Tools.com website is able to offer Microsoft MapPoint 2009 North America, priced at US$269.
- This past summer we were involved in field work for the University of Dallas' Ecological features of reforestation sites at Leaves and Lizards Arenal Volcano Cabin Retreat, Costa Rica research project. We created the EcoMap Costa Rica website in support of the project; supervised the acquisition of field data and panoramic photos; and created the online interactive maps. The site includes background information, student blogs, and student reports. The online interactive maps which are implemented using MapServer, OpenLayers, and Virtual Earth.
What We Do
Winwaed Software Technology LLC provides software consulting and programming services. We can take on most projects, but specialise in geographical and scientific applications. We currently support the Gistix GIS Toolkit, and produce and sell a number of utilities for Microsoft's MapPoint application.
Recent projects include custom programming solutions for Microsoft MapPoint, Destinator, and MapServer with OpenLayers. We have also worked with the University of Dallas Department of Biology on a number of projects including the ongoing ecological study of reforestation sites in Costa Rica.
Why Winwaed?
The word Winwaed goes back to a major Anglo-Saxon Battle in 655AD. Although the location of this battle is unknown, Richard Marsden (Winwaed Software Technology LLC's founder) grew up at one of its most likely locations. For further information, there's a website devoted to the Battle of Winwaed.
