Mapnificent | ||
======== | ||
=========== | ||
|
||
Mapnificent is a framework for overlaying geographical data on Google Maps using Canvas and JavaScript. No Flash or Tile-Servers. A live example with the really cool "Urban Distance" layer (inspired by [http://mapumental.channel4.com](Mapumental)) and other small layers can be found on [http://www.mapnificent.de](Mapnificent.de). | ||
|
||
The framework is only known to work for small layers, e.g. the size of a not-so-small city like Berlin. Bigger layers might not work, because Mapnificent has many code parts which think the earth is actually flat. | ||
|
||
The framework is currently released under [Creative Commons by-nc-sa](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0). The license might get more free in the future. | ||
|
||
A documentation on how to write layers for Mapnificent is available at docs/index.html | ||

||
Mapnificent currently uses [ELabel by Mike Williams](http://econym.org.uk/gmap/elabel.htm) and jQuery/jQuery UI. It only works with Google Maps. | ||

Mapnificent currently uses jQuery/jQuery UI and only works with Google Maps. Looking forward to an OSM fork. |
