3rd Week, Wendsday

Yesterday, I searched Wintrust bank locations, made an excel file and xml file.

57 Wintrust banks in Chicago. Wintrust has many small banks in their company.

After finding location, you can get their longitude and latitude in google.

This is easy work, but it took my time more than I thought. 

Just, search the bank locations in their web site, and make a file. Using notepad, follow the form and when 

you save your file, make sure to add .xml end of the file name. 

Final form is this. I changed their icon a little because it was hard to recognize.

Bright yellow background color, and blue font.

Today, I will do same job for MB financial, Banco Popular, Charter one, Northern trust.

The Interactive Tutor/Mentor Program locator was built during 2008-09 by a team from India, using a grant from an anonymous donor.  We ran out of money in early 2009 and have not had funds since then to keep updating the technology (or fix problems) and to update the data on the maps.  Thus, it is really great to see how Byungkwan Jang, and intern from South Korea, has been able to update information on the maps.  There is much more work to be done, and finding a university and/or business partner to help do this work, and make the program locator available to other cities, is a priority.
