NASA’s OnEarth Has Been Abandoned
Paul Ramsey noted this morning that OnEarth is no more.
This server no longer provides full WMS services for any of the datasets. Furthermore, the MODIS daily mosaics are no longer being updated. The tiled WMS access, described in the Tiled WMS and Google Earth KML support will stay operational. This includes access to the archived of MODIS daily mosaics, which were built from 2006 to the end of 2010.
Interesting as this was a great resource that I’m not sure was freely available elsewhere.

It’s the One Earth that I know…

SimpleGeo is Acquired/Merged with Urban Airship
Update: SimpleGeo has posted a FAQ that will “answer many of your questions”.
The topic of SimpleGeo is usually a fun conversation starter in geospatial circles. Figuring out their business model was always sort of a crapshoot, but boy did they sure put together an all-star team. Arrington broke the news earlier this week that SimpleGeo, who had raised $10 million in VC money, was acquired by Urban Airship for $3.5 million of “stock”. I’m no math genius, but that sounds brutal for the investors of SimpleGeo. Clearly, what the money guys valued at SimpleGeo was the staff so we’ll have to see what plans Urban Airship has for the SimpleGeo team.
Hey! What happened?
