Re: [FlexJS] US States Map example - pure AS3
Hi there,
We have a requirement to have a heat map for one of the application. It's
required for both web and iPad(app). I have a common library for both and
one of the views needs this heat map(of UK).
Om,
AS Code: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/d1d8d6d8c544f985e387
That code seems to be FlexJS specific. Is there something similar which is
purely using Flex\AIR? I tried to search, but all of them seem to be actual
maps(like google, modestmap, ArcGIS etc) which needs network connectivity.
App would be offline, hence I just need to draw that country and highlight
specific parts of the country based on data.
Kindly let me know how can I go about it.
Cheers!
Deepak

Re: [FlexJS] US States Map example - pure AS3
Posted by OmPrakash Muppirala <bi...@gmail.com>.
Okay, I have created a map component from scratch in Flex.
Here is the basic code
https://github.com/bigosmallm/flexmapcomponent/tree/master/MapComponent
For now, this supports only a WorldMap. You can follow the code and create
a UK map, it should be straightforward.
You can get your maps from wikipedia as svg files and load them as plain
xml files (like in WorldMap.as)
Hope this is a good starting point for you.
Thanks,
Om

Hi Om,
I need it ASAP, as I need to wrap it up by this month end. That's great to hear from you. Surely, I'll pitch in.

I'm not quite sure how to get those lat\long points for the boundaries. I tried http://geojson.io/ , but that's for custom coordinates.

Hi Om,
I need it ASAP, as I need to wrap it up by this month end. That's great to
hear from you. Surely, I'll pitch in.
For now, I wanted UK's map with its states\bricks highlighting based on
data(For Ex: red\yellow\green). If it's for SDK, then I guess it needs to
be generalised(for both web and mobile). Any ideas what can be the best
approach for this?
While searching some more, I came across this great place where there are
so many flex libraries(at least I was not aware of many of them). May be
this will be of some help to others too:
https://github.com/uhub/awesome-actionscript
In that list, I got this library which fits by needs.
https://github.com/Srirangan/flex-choropleth-map-component/blob/master/ChoroplethMapExample.mxml
However, it's purely in Flex 3. Need to check if converting it to 4 works
as intended or if there shall be many changes to it. I'll be doing that now.
I'm not quite sure how to get those lat\long points for the boundaries. I
tried http://geojson.io/ , but that's for custom coordinates.

Deepak,
I have been thinking of adding a similar Map component to the Flex SDK.
How urgently do you need this component?
Can you help out with adding this to the Flex SDK? If I have some help, I
can build it faster.
It should not be very hard and I can help you all the way, as needed.
Thanks,
Om
