I have been challenged to design an active map display (on Windows). My first thought was to consider something based on the combined osgPick and osgMFC examples, but I wondered whether anyone could suggest something better or an existing open source solution that could be adapted.
Design points Map returns the current mouse pointer in metre offsets from map origin. Use origin offsets to return culture data (building, road, river, etc). Cars, traffic lights, etc can be dynamically drawn on top of the map. Map can be dynamically modified by adding roadworks. Map projection must be orthographic. Zoom in and out without pixel blockiness (hence a 3D solution) Scroll the map within its window. Easy construction of the map data/models from existing 3D terrain. Good correlation between map and visual data.
