Sample to find Area and perimeter of a Polygon

Hi,
Today tried a sample to fetch Area and perimeter of a surface using ArcGIS API with Google maps. It is easy to use, we just need to join the points for the respective surface for which we need to find the Area & perimeter and double click. I always like Central park in Newyork, Thought let us try the tool there... It works perfect... please find the link & screen shot below.

Terrain Analysis in ArcGIS Explorer

Hi

Tried installing the Terrain Profile plug-in for ArcGIS explorer. Found it interesting because, I came to know that Terrain analysis & calculations are done through ArcGIS web-servers in real-time. The location striked on my Mind was Mt. Everest from Himalayas. Just searched for Mt. Everest and landed in the location. I just enabled Terrain Analysis, drew a straight line and double clicked in order to start calculation. In few seconds it was done! The values are almost close... Its fun working with this tool & much more to explore...

Where Am I ! A sample on Geo location using ArcGIS API



Hi

I have created a Geo location finder page using ArcGIS api. It is a test page to display the current location of the browser. I am sending to friends across the globe to evaluate. Please try from your end and reply whether it works fine or not & your browser version. mostly it is supported in all latest versions.

Live Sample : http://www.kuwaitfresh.com/WhereAmI.htm

We have used the following web-service in this sample:
http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer



Observation as on 1 July: For some friends in IE 8 it didn't work. Rest for Firefox version greater than 3.5,Chrome, IE9, It worked once the user allowed "share my location" option. and we have also tested in Iphone which is upgraded with version 4.3.
