The question is - if possible, on the basis of OSM write offline GIS on JEE platform with Vaadin framework? Visualize some of the objects over the map, whose coordinates are specified in the database.
What tools are needed for this and where to start?
I didn’t exactly get a solid view of what you are trying to accomplish, but if you are planning a GIS software on a Vaadin stack you will want use this add-on: http://vaadin.com/directory#addon/openlayers-wrapper
there are, whether the source code of demos presented on the page add-on? Such as
Vol example Application and
vgis ?
I would be very grateful for the help!
I have a few questions will be in the application of this add-on - perhaps, if it is based on GIS to write, which will operate on an intranet? Need-a MapServer or GeoServer that will draw a map from the database?
As far as I know, the OSM download in tabular form and used MapServer to render images. Can do add-on to provide
offline GIS ? In the company’s
intranet ?
I think it is possible to download the openstreetmap data and import it to geoserver. Then you can use it as e.g. WMS layer. Haven’t done this but I’d guess it is possible.
Thank you very much, Matti Tahvonen!
Whew! This is really impressive! And I’m going to do GIS with the involvement of APIs, provided by the OpenLayers Wrapper!
Thank you! The question arose in connection with the fact that the
sample does not allow this format.
Now another question - i installed and configured GeoServer, create map and i can see her in Layer Preview → OpenLayers:
That’s what I get -
