The Live Maps / Virtual Earth Blog points out that the MapDotNet Server 2007 is available for download.
The basic principal is very straight forward - server based GIS with access to enterprise data, dynamically rendered for use in Web applications. You have data in Oracle Spatial, PostGIS, or ESRI shape files that you want to integrate in ASP .NET apps. MapDotNet supplies drag n drop server controls for Visual Studio to hook up to your data sources and render map layers on the fly. Advanced features include direct editing of data in ESRI ArcSDE and projection transformations.
So there you go, if you are unhappy about the cost of ArcGIS Server and run ArcSDE, this might be something to take a look at.

Mark, I’m surprised that this flew under my radar. We are going to test it out this week and see if it will be of any use to us in the future.

Great website. We have been working Mapdotnet for a few months and were impressed with the fact that we took over 800k shape files and mapped them into the product in just a couple of days. Harris County Demo on their website. We are working on taking all of our roads, bridges and buildings and using it for asset management and inspections.
Keep up the great site. I review it often.
