Documents
21 April 1997 		New important pieces of information for users & software developers that want to use MPB in new ways or with new software:
  • Photographic information:
    Walter Johnson has prepared a set of tutorials & documentation on using Multipoint builder with Photographic nodes. This helps answer some of the questions of mapping out node locations when the original sites were not created in a virtual perfectly mathematical universe.
  • Creating location resources in QTVR & Panoramic PICT files.
    Review Technical Specs for a description of the Multipoint resource record & sample code for adding camera information to your PICT & QTVR nodes.
