You can place a scanned aerial image or a historical map onto a Mapbox map with spatial referencing.

Georeferencing imagery

Below, we go over the steps of how to take a non-georeferenced JPEG image and turn it into a geospatial dataset ready for rendering in Mapbox Studio and other Mapbox tools. Here, we use the free and open-source application Quantum GIS (version 2.4) and a couple plugins to georeference an image onto a map. We’ll then save the image and upload it to Mapbox. Load QGIS plugins. The Map Academy › CartoDB.js. What you’ll learn This introduction to CartoDB.js from the ground up will take you through the common uses of the library.

Last week we announced the release of OpenLayers 3 Beta 2, so this week I wanted to share some recent experiments combining OpenLayers 3 and Ember.js to create a LayerSwitcher that supports grouping and overlays as well as base layers.

Using OpenLayers 3 with Ember.js

This was my first attempt to use Ember.js, an open-source client-side JavaScript web application framework based on the model-view-controller (MVC) software architecture pattern. It uses the Handlebars library for its templates. Some of my takeaways from this exercise were: Ember seems powerful, and easy to learn. Odyssey.js. Los mejores plugins para Leaflet. Better Maps For IOS: Introducing Mapbox GL - Splash. Google to Mapbox. Are you using Google Maps and searching for the equivalent code in the Mapbox JavaScript API?

Google to Mapbox

This guide walks you through examples in the Google Maps API v3 and their implementation in mapbox.js. Getting started To begin, you’ll need the latest version of mapbox.js. Unlike Google, there’s no API key required when you include the script in your HTML. Just link directly to a hosted version by copying this snippet into the header of your HTML document.

We welcome Dmitriy Skougarevskiy who is a doctoral candidate at The Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies in this guest post to let him tell us about his pet project on the loopholes in the Law of the Sea, called donutholes.ch.

Map of the Week: Doughnut Holes in international waters

It all started with an International Law volume where I glimpsed this illustration: Simply put, the 1982 U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea established that an area stretching 200 nautical miles from a seashore is an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the respective state.

Expanding Leaflet's format support with Omnivore. Omnivore helps Mapbox.js & Leaflet eat more types of data. We love and support GeoJSON, but sometimes specific data is in other formats, like GPX from a running watch, KML from Google Earth, CSVs from your spreadsheets, or TopoJSON files with enhanced geometries. Omnivore makes it all super-simple: omnivore.gpx('run.gpx').addTo(map); SIG Web ou GéoCloud ? Quelques réflexions personnelles...

Il y a près de 20 ans, avec l'avènement de l'Internet et sa généralisation dans la société civile comme dans le monde professionnel, est apparue la notion de SIG Web. Il était alors question pour certains des acteurs historiques de la géomatique (les traditionnels éditeurs de SIG lourds travaillant sur stations de travail, Mac et PC) de s'adapter à cette nouvelle technologie, plus moderne, plus puissante, plus souple et plus tendance.

D'autres n'y ayant pas cru, n'ont pas pris ce virage. On en reparlera... A Simple Map. Open source mapping software in the cloud. To make it easy for you to get started with open source mapping software on own server, we provide server images including everything you need: PostGIS, MapServer, TileCache, GDAL, WFS, WMS, Elasticsearch, Leaflet and OpenLayers. Just launch an instance and start uploading your spatial data in only 5 minutes. After launch no configuration is needed, just start using your server and share maps with the world. Configuration of the servers: Ubuntu 12.04LTS (64 bit) running Apache2 as Worker MPM.PHP5.3 is running as FPM (a FastCGI implementation).The tile cache running as a mod_python application.Oracle JDK We’ve also put a basic GeoServer install on the images. You can quickly get a full GC2 server up and running on your own server by using our virtual machine image.
