Professional Scrum Master Certified Geek.

This summer, I got my Professional Scrum Master I certification. I’m extremely happy with this, because I absolutely love the framework. I’ve been working within the Scrum framework as a developer for some years now and when I started working for Tensing I found out two things…

AngularJS + OpenLayers 3

AngularJS + OpenLayers 3

This is just an awesome project, and I’m liking it more and more everyday. When I started learning AngularJS, my prime goal was to build a method of making easy OpenLayers maps. David Rubert (tombatossals on GitHub), however, beat me too it, by far. (as I’m still learning the intermediate things of Angular) This is…

Incoming book: Book of OpenLayers 3

Incoming book: Book of OpenLayers 3

I saw this a few weeks ago, there is a new book incoming about developping with OpenLayers 3. It is being written by Antonio Santiago and it looks promising, so I thought I might as well share it here. Update: you can now purchase the book. It says it’s 70% completed now. Update2: 100% completed!

OpenLayers 3.0 released!

OpenLayers 3.0 released!

Just noticed that OpenLayer 3.0 is now officially released a few hours ago. As a big fan of the project I recommend you to take a look at it. Although the development packages were released through ol3js.org, they have now moved back to the official Openlayers website.

Just another quick post here. Just moved my domains back to the Netherlands (Ricksel Hosting) after being hosted in the USA (Arvixe) for some time.

Creating a SharpMap WMS Server using .NET MVC4 Razor

Creating a SharpMap WMS Server using .NET MVC4 Razor

Lately I’ve been playing with the idea of creating a lightweight method of displaying geospatial data. I’m currently working on a project using NHibernate Spatial, .NET MVC4 and Sql Server 2012.stock-map

As our deployment will initially be without a full server install (no dedicated server) I can’t depend on a GeoServer installation what I would normally do. So I went to my best buddy Google and found a WMS implementation built in SharpMap which is nearing its 1.0 release. (Currently RC2)
