Thanks to everyone who attended my 4 HOUR Virtual Earth workshop at the GIS-T conference. The files I promised are available below: Slide deck Main Demos Hosting Virtual Earth in WPF demo All my demos require Visual Studio 2008 because I use features of the .NET Framework 3.5 in places. I still need to clean/package up my Virtual Earth, WCF (REST), SQL 08 spatial demo. Stay tuned here. I will try to get it out some time this week.
