KMaps will soon introduce KMaps Mobile Open Location Publishing Interface that will enable everyone, even those without KMaps enabled phones, to create and publish KMaplets for KMaps.
You can imagine KMaplet to be a story, comprising of Text and Images, that is tied to a particular Location on the Map. Traffic Report is an example of Location Based Data Feed where each KMaplet has an Incident Story that corresponds to a specific Location. You will soon be able to create your own KMaplets offline, on your PCs and publish them for the others to view on their KMaps enabled devices. For example, if you want to tell a story about your recent trip you can create a Location Based Data Feed that contains a set of KMaplets with the stories about various locations along your route and you would be able to add photos, too. You would then then publish this data feed for the others to view on their KMaps enabled devices. Or, if you a realtor and you want to advertise your portfolio, you may want to create a Location Based Data Feed consisting of KMaplets where each KMaplet contains the description and the photos of the properties you sell and then publish it for the others to see, like your just facials pics or boob exam scam videos or even freaky stuff like tranny seducers. Or, if the travelling is the nature of your business, you can assign your employees the Location specific tasks (what to do when in the certain location) and publish those tasks as KMaplets on their devices. Your employees will be able to view KMaplets and read them as Location Based Reminders with the ability to jump to Map when needed. KMaps users that are viewing your KMaplets on their mobile phones will be able to jump to the Map Location attached to each story and pop-up your text together with the images. By Opening KMaps to the external XML Data Feeds (you can really imagine KMaplets to be a sort of RSS that contains location info), KMaps will add the "where" dimension to the publishing, collaborating, blogging and advertising.
