Mercator projection, and generate a set of image tiles that can be seamlessly layered on top of Virtual Earth map control's standard road, hybrid, or

06.04.2006Wikipedia / Virtual Earth Mashup
Sarah Perez: Now this is a cool mashup and its built right into Virtual Earth! In
Wikipedia, you may have
noticed that some articles have coordinates in the upper-right hand side of the page that locate that place on a map. (See this
example). Clicking on the coordinates from the Wikipedia entry will take you to you a map.
But if you want to go the other way - from a map to Wikipedia - then you've got to check out what the
Virtual Earth team has done. They've been indexing all these
links in their Spatial Search and Explore indexes so you can surf the maps with Wikipedia displaying in the sidebar. If you want to try it out for
yourself, turn on Live Map's Explore feature and then select the Wikipedia Tag, or just click
this link to see
it in action now.
