2/25 Update and Meeting Recap

Progress Report:
*Since ThinkMap is deeply integrated into GCAT, it would be extremely difficult to replace it with FreeMind. Currently we're waiting on a 30-day trial version of ThinkMap.

*ArcMap can only render animations over the entire map. ArcScene can animate object layers along a set path (seen here) but it requires environmental data which can be difficult to generate.

*Using the ArcGIS Javascript API seems to be the best solution now. The user is able to generate markers on a map and move it. Animation still needs some work.

*The PowerPoint presentation can be downloaded here.
*The dragPoint file can be downloaded here.



To Do:
*Figure out how to animate the markers using a timer in javascript.
