Beauty Christopher, thanks for sharing- both the application and the under-the-hood information! I look forward to seeing OpenLayers move forward.
Steve >>> Christopher Schmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 07/04/06 9:43 AM >>> It is my distinct pleasure to announce the redesign of the Boston Free Map: http://boston.freemap.in/ This map is powered by ka-Map and OpenLayers, using Mapserver as a rendering engine. More information about the map is available from http://boston.freemap.in/about.html Including a link to the mapfile: http://boston.freemap.in/basemap.map This map is served through the support of the Free Map project. The Free Map System is designed to run as an open hosted service for mapping applications using free and open source software, public and copyleft geographic data, and community information anywhere in the world. All data for the Boston Free Map is available under an attribution license from MassGIS. The mapfile is similarly released under an attribution license by the Free Map Project. Mapserver has proved to be a hugely useful tool for rendering, and ka-Map has successfully solved many of the issues related to creating and caching tiled images from Mapserver. Many thanks to all participating members of the Mapserver and ka-Map projects for creating the software which allows the generation of this map. Regards, -- Christopher Schmidt Web Developer
