Developing Your own Apps
Mobile web vs. Native
iOS Development tools
iOS Tutorials
Image Layer Example
WhirlyGlobe-Maply Tutorials
Native Dev for Mobile
Pros
Apps more interactive
Better integrated into system
Cons
Development tools unfamiliar
One version of app per platform
Web Geospatial for Mobile
You can, but keep it simple
Not as interactive
Not very well integrated
