The application is called Augmented Explorer [Prototype].

The prototype was developed using the Layar application.

But from the new screenshots

I can’t find a Layar reference anymore. [link]
It seems to be working on iPad/iPhone, hope to see more of it soon.

As in Urban Augmented Reality .

Click here to view the embedded video.

It is  an application for the Dutch Architectural institute and shows information about buildings and building to be build.
http://www.nai.nl/uar is the Dutch language site.

Apple iTunes download.

[update]
It seems that this application is not a real white-label service but instead uses a “launcher” application that uses links to preload URLs into Layar.
Smart move by the UAR team, and therefore not something that Layar has made available.
