Microsoft TS: Ms Virtual Earth 6.0, Application Development Sample Questions:

1. You have the following information about a hurricane path:
Latitudes
Longitudes
Time
Description
A measure point of the above data every 10 minutes
You need to display the movement, time, and description of the hurricane path on a Virtual
Earth 6.0 map.
Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
Choose two.)

A) Import a GeoRSS feed to a new layer.
B) Encode the measure points as a GeoRSS feed.
C) Store the hurricane path as a Live Maps collection.
D) Import a Live Maps collection to a new layer.
E) Encode the measure points as pushpins by using the VEShape.SetPoints method.
F) Encode the hurricane path as a polyline by using the VEShape(VEShapeType, points) method.

2. You are creating a Web application by using the Virtual Earth 6.0 map control.
A Web page of the application provides links to a number of pre-defined locations. The application must meet the following requirements:
The links can be shared.
The links are encoded with map properties.
Users can copy the links to the Windows clipboard.
You need to write code to meet the requirements.
Which code fragment should you use?

A) <button id="Link" onclick="location.replace(' http:
//www.mymappingsite.com/mymappage.aspx?40.689167&-74.04472&16&h');"> Liberty
< /button>
B) <code id="Link"
onclick="window.open(location.protocol+location.pathname+'?40.689167&-
7 4.04472&16&h');"> Liberty </code>
C) <a id="Link" href="http: //www.mymappingsite.com/mymappage.aspx?40.689167&-
74.04472&16&h">Liberty</a>
D) <address id="Link"
onclick="location.replace(location.protocol+location.pathname+'?40.689167&-
74.04472&16&h');"> Liberty </address>

3. Your companys Web site has a Virtual Earth 6.0 map. You create custom buttons. You need to ensure that Web site users are able to pan the map to the north-east direction.
What should you do?

A) Use VEMap.Pan with delta x > 0 and delta y < 0.
B) Use VEMap.Pan with delta x > 0 and delta y > 0.
C) Use VEMap.Pan with delta x < 0 and delta y < 0.
D) Use VEMap.Pan with delta x < 0 and delta y > 0.

4. DRAG DROP - (Topic 1)
The location data of your company branch offices is stored as description and title in pushpins on a Virtual Earth 6.0 map.
You need to ensure that the data is displayed in a data panel named BranchInfo on top of the map every time a user moves the mouse over the pushpin.
What should you do? (To answer, move all the actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

5. You are creating a custom tile set by using Microsoft MapCruncher. The tile set must overlay a weather map image in a Virtual Earth 6.0 application by using MapCruncher.
You need to perform two tasks before using MapCruncher to create the custom tile set.
Which two tasks should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
Choose two.)

A) Obtain the latitude and longitude coordinates for the corners of the weather map image.
B) Split the weather map image into tiles.
C) Apply the proper alpha filter to the weather map image to display any transparent portions on the Virtual Earth map.
D) Obtain low resolution weather map images for low zoom levels and high resolution weather map images for high zoom levels.
