How to show event points on a geo map

Bruno Busco
Hi devs,
I have a list of recorded events, each one with its GPS coordinates,
and I want to create a screen with a map (google ?) where they are
shown.
I know that in the OFBiz framework there is some geolocalization
feature but I never used it.

Do you think that the existing feature can be used to do what I want?
Any pointer ?

Many thanks,
-Bruno

Hi Bruno,

Yes sure it was designed with this in mind. It should be extended though. Should be very simple, look for the javascript examples. I
guess Googling for mulit-points you should quickly find examples.

Hi Jacques,
is there some documentation od even a simple JIRA or ML discussion
where I can read how does it work now?
Or may be could you point me to the files/entity involved?

Many thanks,
-Bruno

Bruno,

I did some work along these lines 2-3 years ago, but I can't find it,
now. But I did add WfsEventHandler to work with Geoserver, I believe.
It is probably more than you want right now.

I also remember using the RomeEventHandler to implement GeoRSS and
populated a Google map with markers that way. I would definitely look
into GeoRSS (http://www.georss.org/Main_Page) to do what you want.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Hi Bruno,

Look for GeoPoint in *.ftl, *.java, *.js, *.xml file. Should be enough for a guy like you ;o)

Hi Al,
many thanks for the pointers.
I found the getLocationURI(HttpServletRequest request) method in
WfsEventHandler that is almost completely commented out.
Is this the one you are referring to?
Where can I read what it is supposed to do?

The same for the RomeEventHandler. It seems not used anywhere. Any doc
or even only few words describing the logic?

Many thanks,
-Bruno

You may also look for GeoPoint in Jira and Wiki
