Module Size: 17 kb (minified 8 kb)
Original Source: GeoRSS support for Bing Maps v7 AJAX control
Dependencies: jQuery
Description:
This module allows you to import GeoRSS files into Bing Maps. A GeoRSS feed will be downloaded and parsed into an EntityCollection which can then be added to the map. Additional metadata is captured and stored in a Metadata tag on
each shape making it easy to relate shapes to their metadata.
Note that the example for this module also includes a GeoRSSProxy service for accessing GeoRSS across different domains. This can be ignored if the GeoRSS files you are loading are hosted on the same domain as your
web application.
