The following are the steps needed to show an OpenScales map:
Instantiate the map:
_map = new Map(); _map.size = new Size(1200, 700); //this is the area in pixel that will be shown on the screen _map.center = new Location(-73.98,40.77, "EPSG:4326"); //these are longitudes and latitudes coordinates _map.resolution = new Resolution(100, "EPSG:900913"); _map.maxResolution = new Resolution(10000, "EPSG:900913"); _map.minResolution = new Resolution(2, "EPSG:900913");
Create the layers that will be inside this map:
var mapnik:Mapnik=new Mapnik("Mapnik"); //_map.addLayer(mapnik); var bing:Bing = new...
