The attached images and patch show a basic solution that uses the Leaflet Maps
API.
So far, I simply replaced the calls to the Google Maps API with what I judged
to be equivalent calls to the Leaflet Maps API. I have tried to leave all
other code intact and untouched.
The map tiles are working and the markers are all being assigned the correct
data from the RSS feed as content in popups.
At the moment, however, my solution is not ideal as I'm getting a few
inconsistencies with the way the popups are displayed and behave in different
browsers. So I think a bit more work needs to be done to get the popups
similar in each browser.
It would be great to have uniformly sized popups with scroll bars appearing
when the content overflows the popup. But somehow I'm missing the magic CSS
settings or Leaflet properties to achieve this. I've set the 'maxWidth'
property of the popup upon binding it to the marker. I've also tried the
following CSS settings, which certainly had some effect, particularly when
using Firefox:
{code}
.leaflet-popup-content
{
height:300px;
width:300px;
overflow:auto;
}
{code}
But unfortunately no scroll bars appeared in either Chrome or Safari!
Furthermore, I haven't yet tested on Internet Explorer...

> A suggestion was made on one of the SIS wiki pages to update the 'demo.jsp'
> file in the SIS webapp to use an open source maps API, such as Leaflet
> (http://leaflet.cloudmade.com), rather than Google maps.
> For reference, below is a copy of the comment from Paul Ramirez, see
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SIS/OODT+File+Manager+to+SIS+Connection+Demo
> for details:
> Instead of using Google Maps you may want to use Leaflet
> (http://leaflet.cloudmade.com/) or OpenLayers (http://openlayers.org/) due to
> required API key for the map. This might matter if you are going to host this
> example on the SIS Wiki or OODT Wiki as the required API would be attached to
> you.
> Here's how a snippet of Leaflet code to setup the map:
> {code}
> var map = new L.Map('map');
> // Setup the basemap
> var osm = new
> L.TileLayer('http://otile{s}.mqcdn.com/tiles/1.0.0/osm/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {
> minZoom: 1,
> attribution: 'Basemap <a
> href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/"
> target="_blank">CC-BY-SA</a> by © <a href="http://openstreetmap.org/"
> target="_blank">OpenStreetMap</a>, Tiles Courtesy of © <a
> href="http://open.mapquest.com" target="_blank">MapQuest</a>',
> subdomains: ['1','2','3','4']
> });
> // Add the basemap to the map
> map.addLayer(osm);
> // Create a marked for the map and add it
> var marker = new L.Marker(new L.LatLng(10.0, 30.0));
> map.addLayer(marker);
> // Attach a given HTML content to the marker. For brevity I truncated the
> content
> marker.bindPopup("Title: geodata.txt<br/>Link:<a
> href='http://localhost:8080...'>...</a>");
> {code}
> Unlike the GoogleMap API this does not require a key and is an open source
> product as is the basemap (e.g. Open Street Map served by Mapquest). Then
> this would be a complete open source solution from top to bottom. If you have
> any questions feel free to hit me up on the SIS or OODT lists.
