Description:About the Author A professional writer for more than six years, Martin C. Brown (MC) is the author of both the Perl and Python Annotated Archives and Complete Reference books (all four Osborne/McGraw- Hill), Microsoft IIS 6 Delta Guide (Sams Publishing), and 14 other published computing titles. His expertise spans myriad development languages and platforms—Perl, Python, Java, JavaScript, Basic, Pascal, Modula-2, C, C++, Rebol, Gawk, Shellscript, Windows, Solaris, Linux, BeOS, Microsoft WP, Mac OS, and more—as well as web programming, systems management, and integration. MC is a regular contributor to ServerWatch.com and IBM developerWorks. He is also a regular writer of white papers and how-to guides for Microsoft on subjects such as migrating Solaris/Unix/Linux development and systems administration to Windows 2000 and 2003 Server product lines. He draws on a rich and varied background as a founding member of a leading U.K. ISP, systems manager and IT consultant for an advertising agency and Internet solutions group, technical specialist for an intercontinental ISP network, and database designer and programmer—and as a self-confessed compulsive consumer of computing hardware and software. In his formative pre-writing life, he spent 10 years designing and managing mixed platform environments. As a result he has developed a rare talent of being able to convey the benefits and intricacies of his subject with equal measures of enthusiasm, professionalism, in- depth knowledge, and insight. MC is currently a member of the MySQL Documentation Team. Do you know where you are? Do you know where you are going? Could you find the nearest restaurant to your current location? When you looked at your latest holiday photos, could you remember where you were? It is just these sorts of questions that drove me to write this book. I’m interested in the answers to all of these questions, and particularly in ways in which I can represent information about my world, and the world we live in, in a way that relates that data to its location. During the course of writing this book I visited New York (U.S.), Edinburgh (Scotland), and Sorrento (Italy), in addition to many different places within a few miles of my home. In each case, Google Maps and Google Earth could be used to record information about where I had been, to look up information about where I was going, or simply to help me understand the area I was visiting. All of these situations, and more, are documented and described within this book. Who This Book Is For This book is aimed at both amateur and professional programmers who want to make use of either Google Maps or Google Earth in their own applications. To get the best out of this book, you should have some basic programming experience and ideally be familiar with HTML and JavaScript. It would also be beneficial to have experience with scripting languages (particularly Perl) and SQL databases, such as MySQL. Managers and other interested parties might also find sections of the book useful, because it can help them understand how the applications work and also provide background knowledge on what Google Maps and Google Earth are capable of. How This Book Is Organized The book is divided into four basic parts: Part I covers the basics of the Google Maps interface, the fundamentals of the Google Maps API, and how to organize and translate existing information into a format that can successfully be used within Google Maps and Google Earth applications.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
