The grid view gave a very detailed view of the data obtained from the stack of software that collected the data from the web service, was stored in a database, and was then shared from the database via an API.

For this part of the project, we will reuse every part other than a gridview, and build a new visualization using a world map.

To ensure the map view has some data, the Monitor needs to be running, as does the API.

The main project for this chapter is the mapviewer project in the sample code bundle.
