Step by step tutorial to add Interactive map and visualize geographic data to web application

Hi Community,
In this article I will demonstrate below steps to add Interactive map and visualize geographic data to web application:

  • Step1 : Install Application
  • Step2 : Create CSP Page
  • Step3 : Extend dc.IrisGeoMap.Folium class
  • Step4 : Invoke DrawGeoDetails() Method

So Let us start.
 

Step1 : Install Application

First of all we need to install iris-geo-map application by using ZPM

zpm "install iris-geo-map"


Step2 : Create CSP Page

<html><head><!-- Put your page Title here --><title>	Iris-Geo_Map app </title></head><body><!-- Put your page code here -->
        My page body
</body></html>


Step3 : Extend dc.IrisGeoMap.Folium class

<html><head><title> Iris-Geo_Map app </title></head><body ><csp:class encoded=1 super="%CSP.Page,dc.IrisGeoMap.Folium"><!-- Put your page code here -->
        My page body
</body></html>


Step4 : Invoke DrawGeoDetails() Method
 

in the final step we have to invoke DrawGeoDetails() method of dc.IrisGeoMapc.Foium class
In the below example we are passing the locations as a string seperated by ","

<html><head><title> Iris-Geo_Map app </title></head><body ><csp:class encoded=1 super="%CSP.Page,dc.IrisGeoMap.Folium"><h1>How to add Interactive Maps to CSP application by using Iris-Geo_Map app </h1><!--  Invoke DrawGeoDetails function and Pass location string seperated by "," --><div>
#(..DrawGeoDetails("3555 S Ocean Dr Hollywood FL 33019,Boston,NY,Las Vegas,University park Dallas,Denver,Chicago"))#
</div></body></html>

We can pass address by :

  • Proper address like "3555 S Ocean Dr Hollywood FL 33019"

  • Part of the address

  • Place Name

  • City Name

NOTE : System will get latitude and longitude values and mark the location on the map
Below is the final output
