Failed to load spatial interface - augmented-reality

I am trying to load Vuforia Spatial Content using the beginner tutorial here, and the console shows this error:
The page loads the default template without interaction with the elements and has no camera elements to engage the spatial content.
I cannot find a similar error elsewhere, so I have nowhere to start with.
Also, I am using caddy to start a local HTTPS server for this.

How to show GeoJson javascript data as layer in Google Maps in iOS swift

I have requirement that is, I have to show GeoJson data (java script file) as a layer in Google maps either using Native or Web view. I have checked few forums, as per they said, it is possible only for Android to load java script for loading data layer in Google maps.
So, my requirement is, I want to show some java script which contains geojson data as layer and then after that, I have to draw a route or path from start point to end point in map(like user started walking from 1 place to other place around 1 to 10 kms like footsteps).
I seen in Google maps forum, only Android and Web possible this kind requirement.
And I have checked MapBox library too, I am not sure whether it will help to my requirement. But, my preference is Google Maps.
Anyone can suggest me how to achieve this?

MVC Web App via TV Display

I was planning to create a MVC web app that displays graphs and charts that Is built from LIVE data. The app would display the charts in a carousel style. 4 pages total.
My question is:
1) Is there a framework or tool that does most of this for me? If so, I would just have to create the graphs and chart
2) What hardware/Software do I need to display this on a TV monitor that is remote? (i.e monitor on a shop flop of a production plant)
3) What are other options instead of a web app? (i.e create a console app that generates a .png and spit out to a file location on a shared drive. The TV would cycle through the images when pointed to the shared folder)
Something similar to this question
Data visualization / analytics / dashboard in ASP.NET (NOT Google analytics integration)
I have a similar revolving dashboard setup that consist of the following:
1. Standard TV
2. Standard networked PC with monitor cable going to TV
3. PC configured not to go to sleep/display screen saver
4. Browser open and in full screen mode, navigated to my internal MVC website
5. MVC site using bootstrap template with NAV removed.
6. MVC site utilizes highcharts for ease of generating my dashboard components.
7. Main display page (Home controller Index view) includes js that fires off Ajax calls to controller to fetch data from my DB and responds with json to reload/refresh my highcharts displays on Ajax get response every 5 minutes on a counter.
Maybe this can point you in the right direction. When researching when I was going to do it I also considered a wpf application that functions similar to a screen saver to load dynamically created images. What won me over with my current setup was ease of use of highcharts. It's an insanely easy, free, and produces high quality graphics. That combined with twitter-bootstrap for auto screen sizing made the project a breeze. I'm sure if you can get ahold of a smart TV to negate the need for a connected PC then it may be even easier if a physical setup for you.

How to check which external connections are being used by my website

I'm not 100% sure if this is a programming question, but I do believe I'm targeting the correct audience for this issue.
I've built a web-based frontend for an application. Now the frontend will be deployed to the customer's machine (localhost-based website). However, this frontend uses Google Maps V3 and some other external components. It will need internet access, but the customer network is highly secured. Here my issues begin.
To make sure everything works as planned, we need to allow the connections that are being made when starting up the webpage, so I need a list of URLs that my frontend is using when starting up. I mainly need the google maps URLs, they are so varied (googleis.com, gstatic.com, ...)
How can I get a list of these URLs? Is there any Google documentation (didn't find any)?
I've thought about using Firebug and listing all entries in the Network tab. However, that scales to about 2000 items (including all images, scripts, CSS stylesheets etc that are being loaded from the local website).
Or is there a tool/workaround to easily find out which connections should be explicitly allowed for the website to work like it should?
Your approach of using the Firebug - Network tab is good. The Chrome Developer Tools - Network view is also very good. I haven't seen a list of everything that gets loaded by the map, but that is because it varies based on how you set up your map. I know that Google works hard to only load what is needed by your map, based on your options.
So if you only use selected map controls, Google will try to limit the image downloads to just what is needed to display the controls your map needs. Of course, if you include additional items, such as using a parameter on the URL that loads the drawing tools (libraries=drawing), you will have additional network loading. Google defined these "extra" items as libraries to avoid loading everything; just those that need them will have to load them.
Other than setting your map up and watching what is loaded, I can't think of another option.

Mapnik Blue Tiles with TileCache

I am still trying to get my server running OpenStreetMap. I have TileCache and Mapnik installed. I have an extract of the U.S. state of Oklahoma imported into my database. I have used OSM Mapnik tools to create an XML stylesheet and I have confirmed that 'generate_image.py' makes a nice map image. I have (at least I believe I have) granted PostGIS access properly. My user has full permissions over all of the tables in the database. When I look in the Apache logs, all I see are notes about cache misses (I used to see database connection issues, but I don't any more). In the Postgres logs, I don't see anything (again, I used to see access denied issues, but I don't anymore). Despite all of this, when I ask TileCache to render a tile from the OSM Mapnik layer, all I get is this image:
This image shows up no matter where I am on the map or what zoom level I am at. I have TileCache running under CGI and it has a configuration like this:
[osm]
type=Mapnik
mapfile=/var/maps/bin/mapnik/osm.xml
spherical_mercator=true
I am using OpenLayers and my Javascript looks like this:
var map = new OpenLayers.Map("mapdiv");
var vec = new OpenLayers.Layer.TMS("TC", "http://maps.company.com/cgi-bin/tilecache/tilecache.cgi/", {serviceVersion: "1.0.0", layername: "osm", type: "png"});
map.addLayer(vec);
I have been working on this server for two and a half weeks. I have read every blog, forum, or other post I can find. This is my third question today. I am getting desperate. I would really appreciate any help anybody has.
Can you confirm that you have valid data in postgis? Opening up the data in Quantum GIS is a good way to check.

Issues with Filemaker IWP working with hyperlinks on images

I have a filemaker database that I need to be able to link records and all associated data (including container field data) to various points placed on a large PDF image, and then make that data appear via instant web publishing when someone clicks on the marker for that area on the PDF. For example the PDF may be an image of a car, and then I would have various close up images of issues with the car and descriptions of those images as records in the database. I would then want to drop points on the base PDF image and when you clicked on those points be able to see the close up images and other data related to those images.
I'm being told this is too much for IWP because:
I need to place the markers outside filemaker via PDF annotation
Filemaker IWP can't handle the number of markers that may be necessary (it could be up to 1,000 on an E sized image.
Does anyone have a work around or explanation why this is a problem?
If I understand correctly, you would like to setup a PDF with links that will open a browser and show data related to what was clicked. Assuming that is the case, the reason this wont work is because IWP does not provide a unique URL for a unique page. For example, here on StackOverflow you can directly link to any question based on its URL:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3207775/ -- this question
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4973921/ -- some other question
IWP uses Javascript and session variables to manipulate the output to the screen, so there is no way to link to a specific section of your IWP site, since the URL is always something like:
http://yoursite.com/fmi/iwp/cgi?-db=YOUR_DB-loadframes -- Product A
http://yoursite.com/fmi/iwp/cgi?-db=YOUR_DB-loadframes -- Product B
http://yoursite.com/fmi/iwp/cgi?-db=YOUR_DB-loadframes -- Product C
Because of the limited nature of IWP, you will not be able to workaround this issue. You'll need to build your own web-interface using the Custom Web Publishing Engine, either using the built-in PHP extensions or some other technology where you invoke the XML publishing API.
I agree with Nate
IWP is the wrong solution to this problem. You'd be better off simply hosting those images on a webserver.
Now here comes the plug, you can use SuperContainer to really simplify the management of the images from FileMaker.
