?HOW to develop:

Field sketching skills based in tradition

Meaningful spatial and geographic awareness

Rick Steves’s Europe Through the Back

Google GlassGoogle FieldtripMap My Run

Integration with geospatial mapping

Record, save and share GPS

referenced paths with a time stamp

?HOW to develop:

Field sketching skills based in tradition

Meaningful spatial and geographic awareness

Bundled travel media on one device

Media is stored in a gallery and later in

a backup server

A variety of media to capture

Add informational tags to media

GPS markers locate the media recorded

?HOW to develop:

Field sketching skills based in tradition

Meaningful spatial and geographic awareness

Bundled travel media on one device

Sharing, assessment, playback, and archive opportunities

Share content with fellow

travelers and social media

Integration with Google Maps and Google Earth

Share paths with the world
