Integrating MapPoint in your .NET applications

Today I'd like to introduce you to an astonishing C# article at The Code Project. The author Chayan programmed a sample application that's worth testing and talking about!

The MapPoint technology by Microsoft provides a programmable web service, used by enterprises and independent software developers to integrate location-based services such as maps, driving directions and proximity searches into software applications and business processes.

Feel free to download the source code of the "MapPoint Project" and leverage the code sequences in your .NET applications. In addition you may download the MapPoint SDK!

Please don't forget to apply for a "Trial Developer Key" at the Microsoft Site before using that sample!

By the way, this sblog is about VB.NET codes, so I'll translate the most important code sequences from C#.NET to VB.NET soon!
