Checkout Mapbuilder (http://mapbuilder.codehaus.org/) and Mapbender (http://www.mapbender.org/index.php/Main_Page) for some sophisticated AJAX WMS/WFS clients.

Mapbender has an advanced administrative interface and I think can curently consume Goole map services. Mapbuilder is more of a library and working toward supporting consumption of Google map services.

Also DM Solutions has an AJAX client:
http://www.maptools.org/
that has Google-style tiled panning.

For a mapserver, check out http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/ (highly recommended!)

All of these tools are Open Source.

Hi All,

   These maps look pretty good.  Yet all the samples are pretty similar, does anyone have any examples where they have been further customized?  Has anyone experimented with Ajax, or google style interfaces?

 

    Thanks,

Hi Lacey,

Discovery will work and you can host the map library right from your own web site server.  You can find out more about it here including a free trial so you can try it out.

[MI-L] Interactive Maps on the Web

 

 

 




Dear Listers,
 
I use MI Pro 8.0 to create quite a number of thematic maps. I would like to know, if I want the thematic maps be accessed interactively from the library's web site (basic functions like viewers can turn layers on and off, zoom in and zoom out), what do I need (in terms of software, hardware and knowledge) to make this happens? I just want to check the feasibility.
 
I checked the MI Discovery but it seems to me that the maps have to be accessed from a MapInfo site, not your own web page, right? Any help would be much appreciated (I am only a MI Pro user. Don't know much about web publishing or application development though). Thanks very much in advance.
