Hi, Since we are talking Flash + GIS here are a few more link to throw into the mix.
http://www.ci.davis.ca.us/gis/unitrans/index.cfm This is an all-in-one 'GIS-like' app with (simple) data built into Flash. http://www.ci.davis.ca.us/gis/streetmap/ Same guy, but this time the data is served from ESRI's ArcIMS (this allows much more - read vast Gb - of data to be accessed). cheers David -----Original Message----- From: Robin Hilliard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2003 4:05 PM To: Flash Developers List Cc: 'Kirk Mower'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [fugli] Flash GIS Prototype Hi All, Thought you may be interested in this prototype I've been working on for an Australian Developer article and my MXDU presentation: http://www.macromedia.com.au/robin/walkabout.zip It's a highly detailed map of Australia using the Geoscience Australia TOPO250 data set available at http://www-a.ga.gov.au/download/ Click to centre any point on the screen, and shift-drag up and down to zoom. I'm in the process of deploying it on Central (it's a bit big for a banner add :-) but it really shows off the performance improvements in Flash Player 7 - for instance the data (21,321 shapes composed of 1,028,851 points) is all stored in actionscript arrays. There's more to do (e.g moving some of the data layer to the server and caching with local shared objects) but it proves the viability of Flash as a GIS platform. I've included source files for the program but not the data (I'm not sure that I'm allowed to distribute that) - although you do have the compiled data swfs. Comments and questions welcome (may give me some ideas for the article).
