Erik Hazzard is a web developerdesigner, Open Source advocate, and VI user. He loves to learn, teach, and occasionally blogs on his website at http://vasir.net/. As a professional web developer of five years, Erik specializes in Python and JavaScript, using open source software whenever possible. When he's not developing web applications, he's often developing or designing video games.
He works at FREAC (Florida Resources and Environmental Analysis Center), a great place with great people that does all kinds of GIS and web development work.
I'd like to thank the developers of OpenLayers, who continually do a fantastic job of developing the best web-mapping framework. I'd like to also thank my friends and mentors Ian Johnson and David Arthur for giving me the confidence and support I needed to get into web development. I'd like to thank Georgianna Strode and Stephen Hodge for their guidance, advice, and providing me with the opportunity to become a better web developer. I could not have written this book without the help of the great team at Packt; I hope every author can be as lucky as me to have such an excellent group of people to work with. I'd like to thank my parents for their never ending support. Lastly, I'd like to thank my love, Alisen, for her understanding and taking the time to help me make sure that the book is as easy to read as possible.
Xurxo Mndez Prez was born in 1983 in Ourense, a little town in the south of Galicia, Spain. He lived there until he started the study for a degree in IT in the University of A Corua, which finalized in 2008.
For the last two years he has been working, at the Computer Architecture Group of the University of A Corua developing GIS applications (making intensive use of many OGC standards) like Sitegal and SIUXFor (web GIS based applications to manage land properties and promote their good uses in the Galician region), MeteoSIX (a GIS system that provides access to geolocated observed and forecasted meteorological data in Galicia) and others.
He also has large experience (3+ years) as a developer of mobile applications, having played first with JavaME, but nowadays he specializes in Google Android, with more than a dozen developed applications, some of them combining concepts like GIS and geolocation, real time responsiveness, and multiuser needs.
Alan Palazzolo has been building web applications big and small for over five years, most of which have been with the open source, content management system Drupal, and along the way has picked up some experience in data visualization and mapping. He is a strong believer and advocate for the open source methodology in software and in life. He was involved in starting a Free Geek chapter in the Twin Cities, and constantly tries to use technology, and specifically the Internet, to enhance the lives of those that are less fortunate than most.
Ian Turton is a geography researcher at the Pennsylvania State University. He became a geographer by accident nearly 20 years ago and hasn't managed to escape yet. During that period he was a co-founder of the GeoTools open source Java toolkit that is now used as the basis of many geographic open source projects. He continues to serve on the Project Steering Committee for the project as well as committing new code and patches. He has also taught the very popular course "Open Web Mapping" using open standards and open source programs at the Pennsylvania State University and the University of Leeds.
