Hi all, I need to switch to a back-end that scales. Please suggest what technology to use.
This is my custom front-end using open layers and the custom written flash DIY streetview player. http://www.diy-streetview.org/data/development/20110217/index.html For then map data is provided like this by a text-file: A single data set looks like this: lat lon imgdirection filename nation country town street 49.9942724285861 8.66443542324444 339 000037.jpg Germany Hessen Langen Westendstrasse For the DIY streetview player: Each pano (e.g. "000045") has a corresponding xml file e.g. "000045.xml". (File location can be changed in the DIY streetview player to point to the same URL for all streetviews.) Describing both the "pano" istself, and "neighbour"s to be displayed. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <eyesisplayer> <pano direction="88" latitude="49.9945861297528" longitude="8.66527973166667" altitude="188.9559633" /> <neighbours> <neighbour path="000044.xml" latitude="49.99458200" longitude="8.66510383" altitude="189.84849720" /> <neighbour path="000046.xml" latitude="49.99459026" longitude="8.66545564" altitude="188.06342780" /> <neighbour path="000088.xml" latitude="49.99463573" longitude="8.66556697" altitude="173.86521180" /> <neighbour path="000087.xml" latitude="49.99451248" longitude="8.66556220" altitude="173.76674110" /> <neighbour path="000043.xml" latitude="49.99457787" longitude="8.66492792" altitude="190.74103240" /> <neighbour path="000047.xml" latitude="49.99459439" longitude="8.66563155" altitude="187.17089200" /> <neighbour path="000089.xml" latitude="49.99475898" longitude="8.66557174" altitude="173.96368040" /> <neighbour path="000086.xml" latitude="49.99438923" longitude="8.66555743" altitude="173.66826920" /> </neighbours> </eyesisplayer> Obviously the map approach does not scale at all, and the .xml files are hard to maintain at best. What would you use to provide this data? Thanks, Jan -- http://www.DIY-streetview.org
