Hi Hallie,
We had been looking for solution too over here at Emory. We were
especially interested in the ability to use them as field data
collectors. Anyhow, I went to Ted's (Avenza) presentation at NACIS in
St. Petersberg last week and the work they have done on the app is
fantastic. I especially like the ability to drop a waypoint and add
attributes. As an after thought I meant to ask Ted if there was (or will
be) a way to export the points with attributes so we could export them
into other programs (perhaps he could respond to that). Further, in one
of my GIS classes a few students for their final project are interested
in publishing geospatial PDF maps directed for use in iPad/iPhone. We
also have some existing geospatial PDFs we hope to offer up for this
platform. Good stuff.
Best regards,
Michael

Our library just purchased iPads we intend to check out to students.
Any suggestions for map aps beyond Google Earth we might consider?
Thanks!
