In a way http://olarchitect.com/ does this, but that is more to provide a GUI interface for a back-end developer to create a quick map. That said, through browsing nabble you could quite easily create a map in a day or two that has:
Basic controls Layer chooser Measure tool Pick coordinate Some of these are already built into mapfish as well (http://trac.mapfish.org/trac/mapfish/wiki/Home) Personal opinion is that is far easier and quicker to get a map up using openlayers api, than the google api Andrew -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sebastian Albrecht Sent: 10 October 2008 12:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OpenLayers-Users] Openlayers based generic GIS tool? Hello, I am looking for a generic non-thematic GIS tool based on Openlayers as a replacement for e. g. Google Maps. There are lots of examples and GIS applications in the gallery of Openlayers but they all are very specific and only show one special kind of data. A generic GIS tool could combine all the advantages of OpenLayers with the good quality data of GM. It would be great then to have additional tools like measuring, grabbing a latlon-coordinate or quickly adding a WMS source a overlay for GM. Is there something like this or is it weird to think about something like that at all for some reason?
