Hi, I am working on a site that displays thematic data for the United States, and I would like to include small maps for Alaska and Hawaii in the corners of the main map, rather than having to zoom so far out to see them. Does anyone have any suggestions about the best way of going about doing this? Thanks.
This is really a composition problem where you need to compose a single image from multiple separate images. The answer really depends on what media you are using like html, pdf, etc.
If you are trying to do this in a web application I would recommend an approach some like:
Using PHP/Mapscript, generate you three images and then use PHP GD to compose the three images into a single image and then return that to the browser. You can use a similar approach if you are using PDF depending on the PDF lib you are using.
