Weather mashup with Visio 2010

 

 
System requirements                   Instructions                   Visio 2010 weather mashup (online view)

Use this Microsoft Visio 2010 weather mashup to create a compelling, data-linked visual that others can intuitively interact with to check current weather conditions. This mashup brings together two live, interactive diagrams rendered as web drawings in Visio Services on Microsoft SharePoint 2010. It uses the Link Data to Shapes and Data Graphics capabilities in Visio to bind the weather map and console diagrams to values in the public MSN weather data source. The mashup can be published to a SharePoint site directly from Visio. Some minor JavaScript coding establishes the interaction between the two web parts, so that clicking on an individual state in the map diagram automatically updates the weather information in the console diagram. This sample mashup shows how you can offer web-based navigation of public and private data sources, such as stock information or census data, using visual diagrams created with Visio.

What am I looking at?

The diagram you can see here is a web view of the template, published through Visio Services. Using the controls at the top, you can change which section of the template you see, zoom in or out for a closer or wider view, and even see linked data sources through the shape information pane.
With Visio Services and either Visio Professional 2010 or Visio Premium 2010, you can publish any type of diagram (static or data-linked) to SharePoint, so others can view the diagram without needing to have Visio installed on their machines.
