Standard profiles

Post by Bernd Welter »

Hello together,

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:
SILKYSAND profile
SILKYSAND profile
TARENDER (not standard)
TARENDER (not standard)
GREENZONES profile
GREENZONES profile
FOOTPRINTS profile
FOOTPRINTS profile
SANDBOX profile
SANDBOX profile
DEFAULT profile
DEFAULT profile
UPPERCLASSES (not standard)
UPPERCLASSES (not standard)
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>
It is also an option to change
  • color schemes
  • line widths
  • text layouts
by editing the INI files. And there are many more gimmicks available in the native interface - let us know what you require ;-)

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
