today a customer asked me how to enable the visualization of buildings in xMap. I just would like to draw your attention to the mechanism of "legacy profiles" in xMap. On a running xServer it is documented in
http://127.0.0.1:50010/manual/Default.h ... s%7C_____0
By switching the request profile to a referenced INI file you can create images such as the following ones: The required part of the XML code of a native request is
Code: Select all
<CallerContext_6>
<wrappedProperties xmlns="http://baseservices.service.jabba.ptvag.com">
<CallerContextProperty key="CoordFormat" value="PTV_MERCATOR" />
<CallerContextProperty key="Profile" value="sandbox" />
<CallerContextProperty />
</wrappedProperties>
</CallerContext_6>
- color schemes
- line widths
- text layouts
If you want to create your own tile-based approach you may have to check the mash-up of foreground- and background layer as we do this in AJAX maps.
Best regards from Germany,
Bernd
PS: and here are the XML sources - you can use xMap test client to replay these XMLs
