OpenLayers Explorer

build coverage codacy npm

OpenLayers Explorer (olexp) is a simple out-of-the-box web mapping solution. It provides a web application to add, visualize, and analyze spatial data. It provides the following common tools:

  • Toolbar with standard tools (e.g., measuring tools).
  • Outline to inspect and control the visible layers and overlays.
  • Map to display raster tiles, vectors, and overlays.

It's a Javascript library that combines the mapping power of OpenLayers and the layout management of w2ui.

GETTING STARTED

An explorer can be added to a map by adding its dependencies OpenLayers, w2ui, and jQuery
