Creating Flash Maps and Tools PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 25 September 2008 23:46
Two recent geoblog entries discuss making Flash maps, the first one from APB on UMapper, a tool to create your own Flash widget maps built on VE, GMaps or OpenStreetMap: "UMapper is a web-based map authoring application that makes it easy to create, manage, and distribute online maps. The application is built on proprietary UMap technology, which allows it to display geo-data and any layer on top of any map data provider (Microsoft Virtual Earth, Google, OpenStreetMap). Once created, maps can be distributed via flash widgets." Here"s the gallery. The second entry is open source goodies for Flash Maps: KMLParser, MarkerManager, and Planetary MapTypes: "Sometimes there"s functionality that"s ridiculously useful for a niche group of developers, and completely unnecessary for others. That"s the kind of functionality that"s now available in our brand spanking new "Google Maps API for Flash Utility Library" open-source project, and is ready for developers to use, modify, and even improve."
