Detailed Description

Supports display of data on screen using a map with layers.

There are several aspects to a Map, including:

  • data layers: a Map contains a list of layers that visualize data
  • navigation: the map has a camera that can be manipulated using MapNavigator or directly
  • dpi/scaling support: See related article
  • integration: the map can be integrated in a UI framework. This is demonstrated in our samples
  • threading: See threading article on how the Map's threading model works

This tutorial demonstrates how you can set up a Map and add data to it
