Hi there, just wondering if there are any out of the box solutions that enable microsofts virtual earth to be used as a broadcast graphic in news bulletins for accidents weather etc? if not would anyone be able to build one? And how much would it cost? Many thanks Paul.

Hi Paul,

I don't know what is involved..

From Microsoft's license for Virtual Earth there is a part that says:

"(iv) Broadcast Service: If you are interested in using the Virtual Earth Platform for broadcast, please contact maplic@microsoft.com."

They might be able to point you in the right direction?

Also, I'd recommend to post a new thread in this section

Map Forums - MapPoint Web Service and Virtual Earth at MapForums.com (http://www.mapforums.com/mappoint-web-service-virtual-earth/)

Then I think you will get more eyeballs on your question.

Also, use a title that succinctly states what you "Looking for help with using Virtual Earth for broadcasts"

Many thanks Eric.

Much appreciated - great resource!
