GIS is not really my expertise and need advice from experts here. Pardon me for my incorrect terms. I have a client asking to develop a system which provides API to consume data from their POI, PA and MPA datasets (in shapefile). Question is, what are my options to do this? Should I develop the system from scratch by maybe converting the shapefile to GeoJSON, or us there any opensource/paid solution already made for this use case? Any help/tip/advice would be much appreciated! Thank you!
You can try Geoserver. I know people without GIS or technical knowledge who managed to publish geodata with it on the web. The vector data / JSON API is an implementation of the OGC WFS standard - which might come handy if later your client decides to plug the data in something like Leaflet or OpenLayers (or most other GIS frameworks for that matter).
Note that GeoServer is a great standalone solution. But I'm not so sure it is your best option if what you are describing is just one part of a more complex system.
Can anyone help me on how to test using "Regions" in sikuli automation tool (i.e) how to use a region, where to use etc..
If there is tutorial (or) video link that would be gr8..if anybody has an webinar session that covers the entire programming stuffs in sikuli, then that would be useful.
Thanks,
V.Prashanth
All documentation that you require for using 'Region' in SikuliX is found here -
http://doc.sikuli.org/region.html
There is a launchpad site for SikuliX where you can read existing queries/ post your queries -

I'm a web designer by education and I design WordPress-based websites using HTML5, CSS3 and some easy jQuery scripting. I want to learn how to handle JSON and RESTful API calls (e.g. retrieving data from Twitter's Streaming API), but don't know where to start.
Are there any Sitepoint, O'Reilly, or any other big publisher with books on this? Any superblog articles with tutorials? Any tips, suggestions? Pardon in advance for my rusty english.
If you know HTTP, you know REST, so the HTTP standard (especially the Method Definitions section). REST is just using HTTP as it was originally intended, with each URL representing a resource. Its philosophical background is explained in the Wikipedia page, and at length in the original paper.
Specifically for twitter's streaming API, consult their documentation. You can easily test HTTP queries and what they return with curl or a Python's urllib.
I'm searching for complete explanations about how to use geokit-rails3. I've found loads for rails2 but not for rails3. Does any of you have a simple and complete tutorial about how to display a google map on Rails3, from A to Z ?
Thanks a lot for your help !
Geokit (and geokit-rails3) can be thought of as geocoding utility libraries, useful for finding and storing the locations of model instances and for performing location-based searches, but they do not include mapping support.
For Google Maps mapping in rails 3 there are a few choices, but no clear winner. At the moment, most end up just using the Google Maps javascript API version 3 directly. I found Google's Maps API documentation very clear and easy to use.
Is there a developer guide for Manifold System?
In their site i didn't find a beginners guide ,only a user guide and some samples.
I'm mostly interested in google map development through manifold.
Thank you
There is some information on the documents up on the website, but generally it takes a bit of digging to find out what you may need to know. There is no developer guide as such.
The Manifold GIS forum is very helpful for questions and where I would suggest going if you haven't already.
there is also a manifold training video put out by www.gisadvisor.com that actaully shows you how to program the object model. While its VBScript in its teaching, it does give you a good handle on the object model, and the general way in which you do scripting and programming in Manifold.
There is the "Programming Reference" section in the manual:
http://www.georeference.org/doc/manifold.htm#programming_reference.htm
That includes the Scripting Reference page, and various pages for API objects, constants and so on.
