    Great idea!
    But how will the crowdsourced data be licensed? If it’s just available under a proprietary license I might as well add my POIs to OpenStreetMap and hope for an open AR-solution.
    If you plan to license the data more liberally, you might want to cooperate with OpenStreetMap. They already have lots of POIs on there maps and both parties could greatly profit from a collaboration.

    Regards,

    WIKITUDE and Mobeedo teamed up to create Wikitude.me in order to provide a free, easy-to-use, open, mobile information platform for anybody who wants to access or provide location based and situation-specific information or services via mobile phones.

    Basically, Wikitude.me can be understood as a platform which anybody can contribute to freely, very similar to the philosophy of Wikipedia, but for mobile augmented reality. With regards to intellectual property, Wiktude.me will be implemented under a Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License.

    I’ve added both InfoAreas and InfoPOIs, but they are not showing up in Wikitude on Android… what am I missing?

    Just like Mykro. I’ve added some POIs in my area and they are not visible in my phone although they are visible in Wikitude.me

    I sure wish I can get this on my Palm Pre. Is there any plans to make it available on this platform?

    Still, why not connect with other open geodata communities?

    Same thing with Wikitude iPhone app: I’ve added some POIs in my area and they are not visible in my phone although they are visible in Wikitude.me

    The same with me. I added POI’s and they don’t appear in my iphone, only in wikitude.me .. anyone?

    indeed, it would be helpfull if you could tell us how long it takes before a POI is updated on the Iphone.

    It will appear immediately. please check the language setting of your Wikitude app – if you add a poi in English and you have activated “German” in Wikitude it will of cores not appear.

    Ok. That makes sense.

    I’m adding some locations near the Dutch/German border. The Germans will prefer their German setting on their Iphone and the Dutch (probably) English. So best thing to do is add a POI in that case in multiple languages?

  • Roy Janssen
    20. November 2009

    Is the language based on the language chosen in the upper right corner of the computer screen (English/German) or the language I choose from the pull-down menu when I add a POI?

  • Luiz

    but, where on the iphone app we choose the language? the app is already in english and I can’t see any poi that i added…

  • christina
    26. November 2009

    But what language setting does your phone have?

  • christina
    26. November 2009

    just log in again and edit your POI’s by clicking on them!

  • Luiz
    26. November 2009

    what you mean by “settings”
    y iphone is in portuguese, but I already changed to english to try. the app itself don’t have any settings about language..

  • christina

    Luiz, if you have added your POI’s in Portuguese, you have to make sure your regional settings on your iPhone (you will find it under: general settings > language and there is a button for “regional settings”) are also in Portuguese! If you add POI’s in English same procedure: change to English. Please let me know if that worked! Regards, Christina

  • Luiz

    yes, you are right. using “regional settings” with english, the POIs appear. but then, everytime I want to use Wikitude, I need to change the settings of my phone?

    :-(

    because I can’t add POI’s with portuguese language settings on your website…
