It seems that the web interface improved greatly since the last time I checkd that project! Neverthless, if I'm right, the project started around the low-level software, concerning vehicle data acquisition, not around the web application. Also I don't think that the architecture used by OpenGTS (Java/Tomcat) is well suited for a modern web-GIS application. It seems to me also that the back-end engine for data acquisition is tightly tied to the web interface. I imagine a stand-alone web interface instead, getting data from a database where others stand-alone data engines put data. I mentioned MapFish as a possible framework. Finally I don't like very much the dual-version projects, with an open source basic version and a closed source enhanced one. I fear that the organization controlling the code base will prevent the community from pushing advanced features into the open version. But I cannot speak about OpenGTS, because I never followed the project actually. -- Niccolo Rigacci Firenze - Italy _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
