Hi,
what's the planned timeline for the WLM Layar app?
A working Layar app would be an additional plus for WLM-ee to ask
sponsorship from local mobile company (a Layar supporting smartphone
as price for example).
And it would also help to get more people hooked to the competition.
Platonides
has been working on the API. If the a basic API is up and
running we could output things in Layar format. Platonides, how is
development going? When the framework is up adding different formats
shouldn't be that hard.

It should be working now.
See
http://toolserver.org/~erfgoed/api/api.php
Although maybe there's still some bug with some untested option (I
hope there's not!). Kentaur has been adding KML output. I guess it's
working, too (?).
Thanks for taking he lead on this Platonides. Api looks nice! Is
the
feature to provide a bounding box already available? That's used by
Google Earth/Maps and OpenStreetMap.
What's the format of Layar files?
The format of Layar files is described at
http://layar.pbworks.com/w/page/7783213/API-structure .
In short: The client (a phone) provides a location and some more info.
The api should return POI's (point of interest) in a JSON format.
So on the search side we need bounding box and point+distance search to
get this working.
