The mobile app, unveiled by Longview GIS Manager Justin Cure, allows users to take photos, record video and audio of a problem, and automatically provide GPS coordinates. After the report is submitted, users can track all reported problems on a map as well.

Street food is a well worn tradition in large cities, and apparently Portland, Ore. is known as “the street food capital of the world.” Bing launched the Bing Food Cart Finder map app, tailored to Portland foodies, helping them easily find what food they want to eat among the myriad choices that the city has to offer.
According to Waggoner Edstrom, the map experience includes details on more than 250 food carts in the Portland area, including editorial reviews, photos and menus.
