LibertyGIS is an Adobe Flex framework for creating rich, interactive maps. It works by parsing and displaying ShapeFiles (.shp), which contain geographical data. Using this functionality, developers now have at their disposal an easy and direct programming interface to leverage an abundant source of raw geographical data sets.
Functionality Highlights:
- ShapeFiles can be loaded over a network URL or ByteArray (either embedded or local file access). This gives developers unparalleled creative possibilities.
- Developers can combine multiple ShapeFile data sets to create expansive maps not found elsewhere.
- ShapeFile data sets can be uniquely styled. Style individual map features or whole data layers.
- Fast vector drawing operations, providing unparalleled graphics rendering (Requires Flash Player 10).
- Full Flex 3 and Flex 4 MXML support.
