Although this is somewhat unrelated, I just want to comment here that OpenLayers provides a non-tile based client side vector map renderer as well. Although it is not likely to be optimized for the same use case as this is, I wanted to make anyone who cared aware that this type of functionality has been in OpenLayers (and steadily improving in many ways) for multiple years now. Included is: * The Ability to read many different goedata formats (KML, GeoRSS, GeoJSON, WKT) * The ability to render in Canvas, SVG, or VML * THe ability to interact with drawn features -- click to select, change color on hover, etc. * THe ability to draw in the map, adding new data, * Styling based on SLD, or Javascript-generated style descriptions in a simlar vein to SVG. * etc. etc. Best Regards, -- Christopher Schmidt MetaCarta _______________________________________________ Geowanking mailing list [email protected] http://geowanking.org/mailman/listinfo/geowanking_geowanking.org
