WorldKit 3.1 Released

Sat, 30 Dec 2006

Mikel Maron has released version 3.1 of WorldKit, the very functional, lightweight, web GIS client that we use at the Journal of Maps. FlashPlayer 8 is now supported, along with the addition of select zoom and pan buttons. There are three things that would really help our use of WK though:

• scale dependent renderer for displaying points and polygons (i.e. a point when zoomed out and a polygon when zoomed in).
• when hovering over an object the description text is displayed, but if this is too long it is cut off the display
• being able to point it at a (MySQL) database to read objects rather than using an XML file
