This application attempts to resolve geographic locations in the context of an HTML page by dereferencing rel="alternate" or rel="where/elsewhere" links to "GeoWeb" resources, and demonstrate the usefulness of such links to web developers. The text of a proposal for where and elsewhere links is at http://code.google.com/p/where-link-relation-type/. Eventually, I'd like to extend this to handle links in HTTP headers, but for now it's HTML <a> or <link> only.
For starters, try either http://atlantides.org/where-demo.html ("alternate" link to KML) or http://atlantides.org/data-uri-example.html (rel="where" link to a Data URI) in the form below.
