I've been playing around with Squork Mapping this week. Squork is a digital mapping solution intended to enable business professionals to plot, upload and manage their own data securely on high quality digital maps. Unlike Googlemaps and similar solutions, Squork Mapping is more like a fully functioning GIS system that's provided online and made really easy to use. The app provides account holders with controls to design and personalise their map area, upload and manage data (without you having to be a computer whizz) and then view and share the maps you've produced.
This example (link to it from the title of this article) shows all of the published WiFi spots across the UK by carrier. It's likely to be pretty useful if you ever need to get onto the Web in a hurry with your iPAD ;-)
You're able to add your own logo, title - even choose your own pin, tag or dot styles for the maps you publish.
There are a number of example maps that Squork have already published in their gallery to example the uses of the mapping site - and the quality of the results. I'd have to say, so far, the accuracy of the maps looks excellent!
I'm going to spend a bit more time with Squork Mapping this month. I'll hope to show you some of my results!
