Something I had wanted to figure out. The LandscapeMapEditor on wondefl provided all that was required to get started. The original code was under a MIT license and that license is therefore carried on.

Code found on wondefl can be executed within Flex Builder. Create a project File > New ... > Actionscript Project. Make sure that you have the Flex SDK 3.5 installed and that this project makes use of it (Project > Properties > Actionscript Compilers > Flex SDK Version). If Base64Decoder is required for the project to run, download the SDK source for 3.5. Locate mx.utils.Base64Decoder. In your project, create a folder mx/utils/ and copy there the class Base64Decoder. Delete the line that define the resource metadata as this requires the Flex framework (not included in an Actionscript project). Run your project,
For a mini AIR project I had some issue with sandbox security violation warnings that kept coming up any time I was using DragManager on images for which the source had been set to some locally held images (within the User Directory).
To bypass these warning, it is required to load the bytes into a bitmap and to get the image component display the bitmap. Code below.

A list of university is given. One in particular that interest me:
Let's debunk a few more claims.
If you go on the runrev webpage presenting enterprise case studies, as of today, you will find this:

The part that I am interested in is "Learn how NASA, the University of Vienna and others use Rev."
It is about how "NASA used revolution for the Landsat program". In the article, there is mention of "United States Geological Survey" but the headline really makes mention of NASA.
Runrev recently proposed the following challenge:
"If you have code samples in other languages that you feel would be good illustrations of how revTalk can be shorter and/or more readable. [...] We're especially interested in : ActionScript (Flash) [...]
Runrev challenge is to find the shortest possible way to wrrite the equivalent of :
