Hello, It sounds like you are asking about displaying multiple layers and applying map styles (e.g. point symbols) - is that right ?
You have already created a FeatureLayer to display your base shapefile. In the same way you can add further layers to your map (e.g. points of interest) by creating a FeatureLayer for each and adding them to the same MapContent instance. Map styling (e.g. setting a point symbol or line style and labels) can be done using an external SLD file or programmatically. The SLD file is probably easiest. The Map Style tutorial explains the basic concepts: http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/tutorial/map/style.html The GeoServer SLD cookbook has lots of good examples of how to set different feature styles: http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/styling/sld-cookbook/index.html Michael On 10 December 2012 20:31, Jose Angel Jimenez Perez <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello, > > I´m a newbie programmer and I´m making a Java desktop application as Final > Project Degree that implements methods for help decision locating optimist > places, such as renewal energies installations, business, etc. I think I´ll > use GeoTools. > > I´m finishing the app and I have the next problem: > > - I have a whole shapefile, with 3 files: *.shp, *.dbf, *.shx.
