using JS API and georss feeds

[AlexanderStepanov]

Good afternoon All:

I was wondering if you could point me out to documentation or examples which cover use of georss feeds with JS API.

For example, there is an example ( in Samples section ) of displaying points obtained from CSV file.
Is it possible to use georss feeds with JS API?

Kind regards,
Alexander

I think this application uses GeoRSS: Gulf Oil Spill Social Media Application (http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=a15fd28af5574d24b43ecaa4cf64fed2)

The Data Access Samples from the API documentation may help: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/help/jssamples_start.htm#jssamples/data_requestXM...

The sample axxl linked to showing how to fetch XML is a good building block. I also did a very simple app that retrieves, parses and displays data from the USGS's earthquake GeoRSS feed:  http://swingley.appspot.com/maps/eq

Guys, thank you so much for prompt reply.

It is exactly what I was looking for.

just checked the sample at The Data Access Samples from the API documentation at: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/jav...equestXML.html.  

It's not working, someone from ESRI may want to take a look at it. Thanks for the working ones!

Hi, this is just the info I've been looking for! Specifically the earthquake feed from USGS is there any more recent info about how to incorporate the georss or geojson feed into a webmap created with Js API?
the example Derek provided at http://swingley.appspot.com/maps/eq no longer works.
I have checked out the source code, is this the best solution for real-time earthquake data?
