Download Bluemapia Mobile 0.9.6 Beta 2 (June 2009) 
Dear friends,
We are very pleased to announce our latest and improved version of Bluemapia Mobile.
What’s new on Bluemapia Mobile? After extensive planning and development, a list of new features have just gone live.
Here’s a quick rundown on what’s new:
New Search
You can now search by entering the name of a place. If a result is not found on bluemapia, then we search for that place in google and return the result on the map.




Wikipedia’s georeferenced articles
Just select Wikipedia in the “Others” field of the search dialog and you will see the wikipedia icon on the map to indicate a georeferenced article that you can read directly on your mobile device.



Application Programming Interface for external layer providers
In addition to the Wikipedia layer, we have now an API to make new layers available from Bluemapia Mobile. Please contact info@bluemapia.com if you want to propose your layer service to Bluemapia.
Update Web Servers URLs
You can now choose “Update” to get the latest definitions of the web map server URLs that we keep up-to-date on the bluemapia server. By default only OpenStreetMap is available after the installation. Also, if you know the address of a good web map server, you can now manually add that URL to the list of the available servers following the bluemapia format specified here:
Single Create Placemark command including Send
You now have a consistent and rapid way to shoot a photo that will create a placemark at the current coordinates (that is also your current position if the GPS is active) and send the placemark to the bluemapia site or decide to save it locally on your phone. All in the same operation.
The new Bluemapia Mobile is now available here for download.
With these new features Bluemapia Mobile is now the best Geo-Browser available for Windows Mobile. The Bluemapia Mobile Open Source project is still hosted by sourceforge, with a GPL license based uniquely on open source portable libraries.
