| 03:53.30 | mindjuju | so, this Zend framework, it's $1k |
| 03:53.36 | mindjuju | did you buy it or your employer? |
| 03:53.52 | bigdog_ut | then zend framework is free |
| 03:54.39 | mindjuju | i *thought* it was part of PHP 5 or something, then when I looked it up, i saw this |
| 03:54.39 | mindjuju | http://www.zend.com/store/software/zend_platform |
| 03:54.48 | mindjuju | confused |
| 03:54.50 | bigdog_ut | that is not the framework |

| 21:45.24 | dataw0lf | http://dataw0lf.org/gmap.html |
| 21:45.54 | dataw0lf | one of the many cool things I'm hacking up to produce one large web app that will cut our company's prep time in half |
| 21:46.06 | dataw0lf | you guys think it's pretty slick? |
| 21:46.15 | _psychic_ | ya |
| 21:46.27 | _psychic_ | what are the shapes for? |
| 21:46.32 | _psychic_ | (they work, btw) |
| 21:46.42 | dataw0lf | this is just a little hack I came up with that will be put in our large GIS app |
| 21:46.50 | dataw0lf | instead of a client sending us a quad map with boundary lines |
| 21:47.19 | dataw0lf | they'll be able to log onto our web app, and this facility will allow them to produce lat / longs boundary lines that will be saved into our database for future reference |
| 21:47.45 | _psychic_ | how precise is it? |
| 21:47.46 | dataw0lf | this is one of the things I can actually publish without worrying about NDAs and the like. hehe |
| 21:47.53 | _psychic_ | ;) |
| 21:48.04 | dataw0lf | fairly precise, the next version will use our own maps for the most part |
| 21:48.31 | _psychic_ | cool |
| 21:49.01 | mindjuju | that's awesome |
| 21:50.38 | jsmith | dataw0lf: That's wicked! |
| 21:51.18 | dataw0lf | jsmith: dude, getting that circle right almost killed me |
| 21:51.23 | _psychic_ | haha |
| 21:51.34 | dataw0lf | it was like a flashback ten years ago to junior high geometry. |
| 21:51.54 | dataw0lf | plus I have to convert it from lat long and then back again |
| 21:51.55 | dataw0lf | ugh |
| 22:22.46 | jsmith | Youch... |
| 22:22.52 | jsmith | Definitely worth the work :-) |
| 22:23.14 | dataw0lf | yea, it's going to be really cool. I've got a couple other things on the burner / in the oven that are going to be even cooler, I'll share if possible. |
| 22:24.35 | macnewbold | dataw0lf: pretty cool stuff |
| 22:25.10 | macnewbold | besides drawing the lines, is there a way to do anything cool once you've drawn them? Or to pass a link to someone that would show them the same lines you drew? |
| 22:25.34 | dataw0lf | macnewbold: yea, I can extract the coordinates. |
| 22:25.47 | dataw0lf | macnewbold: the plan is to extract them into a database |
| 22:25.49 | macnewbold | nice |
| 22:26.05 | dataw0lf | I could send them somewhere and redraw them on another google map window, but most likely the first version will do this: |
| 22:26.19 | dataw0lf | if we don't have maps of our own for a certain area, we'll use google |
| 22:26.46 | dataw0lf | it'll save those coordinates and send a request block to our flight guys |
| 22:26.51 | dataw0lf | who'll fly it |
| 22:26.55 | dataw0lf | the film will be scanned |
| 22:27.00 | dataw0lf | put into our database |
| 22:27.06 | dataw0lf | and then the saved coordinates will be applied |
| 22:27.15 | dataw0lf | and the client will make any adjustments that are needed |
| 22:27.42 | dataw0lf | this is the Ideal (tm) way. |
| 22:29.25 | jsmith | dataw0lf: What, you're actually training your customers to give you the right data, and fix any mistakes themselves? |
| 22:29.57 | jsmith | Self-correcting behavior with customers -- that's a novel idea! I should patent it! |
| 22:31.11 | dataw0lf | jsmith: yea, I know. Far fetched. |
| 22:31.33 | dataw0lf | getting even the correct boundary lines from our customers is a painful process. |
| 22:34.37 | *** join/#uphpu usynic (n=synic@pdpc/supporter/student/synic) |
| 22:37.30 | jsmith | dataw0lf: I'll bet. I remember the summer after high school, I did mapping for all the power poles in my county -- what a nightmare. |
| 22:38.01 | dataw0lf | jsmith: Awesome. I really love GIS and photogrammetry, but the customers are precocious. |
| 22:38.55 | jsmith | dataw0lf: And, since the photography is so expensive, they never want to admit their own mistakes. |
| 22:39.19 | macnewbold | hehe |
| 22:39.21 | dataw0lf | jsmith: Exactly. :) |
| 22:39.26 | macnewbold | that's true with building web sites too... |
| 22:39.32 | macnewbold | not just taking pictures |
| 22:39.35 | dataw0lf | The worst is when you HAVE to fly an area, and the vice president is fly fishing. |
| 22:39.38 | jsmith | macnewbold: Bingo! |
| 22:39.42 | dataw0lf | so you got a two week no fly zone. |
| 22:39.49 | dataw0lf | :D |
| 22:40.05 | jsmith | C'est la vie... or however you spell that... |
| 22:40.37 | dataw0lf | that's it, I think. |
| 22:40.39 | dataw0lf | frenchman! |
| 22:41.07 | jsmith | Are you calling me a frenchie? You have the audacity to call me a frog?!? |
| 22:41.13 | dataw0lf | yes sir, I do. |
| 22:41.20 | jsmith | I can't be french -- I didn't spell it (or pronounce it) right... |
| 22:41.22 | dataw0lf | go wave a white flag. |
| 22:41.36 | jsmith | They'd never accept any kind of mess like that from me :-) |
| 22:41.44 | dataw0lf | hehe |
| 22:41.48 | jsmith | Even if I did speak perfect french... |
| 22:42.01 | dataw0lf | yea, they could tell you were American from your odor (clean). |
| 22:42.05 | jsmith | They wouldn't let me say it, as I'd showered in the past 6 months... |
| 22:42.10 | jsmith | Bingo... |
| 22:42.11 | dataw0lf | hehe |
| 22:42.23 | dataw0lf | I see someone else has walked the streets of Paris too |
| 22:42.30 | jsmith | Nope... never cared to. |
| 22:42.48 | jsmith | Been over that direction plenty of times, but never had the desire. |
| 22:42.50 | dataw0lf | Waste of time, visit the Czech instead. |
| 22:43.03 | dataw0lf | my fiancee at the time made me, I swear it wasn't my idea. |
| 22:43.11 | jsmith | I'll be in Germany, UK, and France again in June. |
| 22:43.16 | jsmith | Maybe Italy in May... |
| 22:43.17 | dataw0lf | 'we've been in Europe for two years and haven't visited Paris!' |
| 22:43.24 | dataw0lf | 'That's the plan, honey.' |
| 22:43.28 | jsmith | Lucky you |
| 22:43.49 | jsmith | That reminds me -- anybody else here know what famous battle the Mexicans are celebrating when they celebrate Cinco de Mayo? |
| 22:43.52 | dataw0lf | I thought living in Germany would be awesome, but after the first month it's like, uh, I want to go back to the states. |
| 22:44.21 | dataw0lf | jsmith: yup |
| 22:44.28 | dataw0lf | jsmith: 1862~ |
| 22:44.43 | dataw0lf | they killed a bunch of French and renegade Mexicans near Mexico City |
| 22:44.53 | jsmith | Bingo! |
| 22:45.00 | jsmith | Even the Mexicans beat the French! |
| 22:45.01 | dataw0lf | :D |
| 22:45.10 | dataw0lf | I heart history. |
| 22:45.12 | jsmith | And they have a holiday to celebrate it! |
| 22:45.14 | dataw0lf | hehe |
| 22:45.18 | dataw0lf | the poor french. |
| 22:45.34 | dataw0lf | if they weren't so arrogant, that'd be real sympathy. |
| 22:45.49 | jsmith | We need a holiday to celebrate the Mississippi Rifles and their success too... |
| 22:46.36 | dataw0lf | :D I see someone else hearts historical warfare too |
| 22:46.55 | dataw0lf | who was it... Jefferson Davis? |
| 22:47.32 | dataw0lf | at Buena Vista? greatly outnumbered by Mexican forces? |
| 22:47.52 | dataw0lf | Google Maps have fried my brain, I could be completely off. |
| 22:48.10 | dataw0lf | ~google jefferson davis |
| 22:48.16 | dataw0lf | hmph |

| 22:49.59 | dataw0lf | cool stuff |
| 22:53.14 | jsmith | dataw0lf: Yup, you've got it :-) |
