New Flash Interface

This is an example of a new map interface using Flash. Notable changes include:

  • Maps stored as image tiles at various scales – allows for much larger and more detailed images without overloading the server.
  • Background colours and watermark on images.
  • Asynchronous updates (continue scrolling / zooming in and out while the map is updating).

The zoom / pan controls should be self-explanatory so please try it out and let me know what you think!

  5. Hi rotor,
    It was intended as an online service – maps to put on your website. You may have noticed Google doing something similar… ;) I guess the best description of current status would be “An old project now on hold while I decide what, if anything, to do with it”.
