Bridge Tracker Application

This is from MSNBC.com by Phil Zepeda --

QUOTE: "About a week and a half ago we published an investigative report on bridge inspections. I was part of the team that worked on the related Bridge Tracker, an interactive map tied to a database that provides specific information on bridges that you would cross along any given route within the continental U.S. For you geeks out there, we had a proxy specially built to pass info from Virtual Earth to MapPoint, which contained a bridge database that we got from the government through a FOIA request. And yes, it’s all harder than it sounds."

There's also a cool screenshot of the application.
