A collection of tools related to the creation and visualization of geographic data related to the serratus project.
A single page HTML file that takes a list of coordinates as input and renders them as markes into a world map with a minimal graphical style.
The code makes use of deck.gl, a high-performance data visualization library for browsers.
In order to render your own data, there's two variables near the top of the file that you need to set up:
-
DECKGL_ICONLAYER_DATA- A JSON array with a list of objects (markers) that you want to be displayed
- Each of these objects should have the following properties:
- color: an array with three numbers with the RGB value of the color you'd like to use for the current marker
- coordinates: an array with two numbers, latitude and longitude, with the location where you'd want the marker to be
- tooltip: a string of text that will be displayed when users move their mouse over the current marker
-
DECKGL_INITIALVIEWSTATE- A JSON object with the properties of the initial viewport that is shown when the map loads
- Properties:
- latitude: latitude of the center coordinate of the map
- longitude: longitude of the center coordinate of the map
- zoom: default zoom level for the map
To use, just copy the file and set up the aforementioned variables, then open the page in any modern browser. It should look like this:
