API :

API - Control

A visible widget with a DOM element in a fixed position on the screen.

 By default these are placed in the container with CSS class name ol-overlaycontainer-stopevent, but can use any outside DOM element.

API - Control

A control displaying rough x-axis distances, calculated for the center of the viewport.

For conformal projections (e.g. EPSG:3857, the default view projection in OpenLayers), the scale is valid for all direction

controls: ol.control.defaults().extend([new ol.control.ScaleLine({
        className: 'petabp-scale-line ol-scale-line'
      })]),

API - Interaction

  • Set of interactions included in maps by default.

 

  • Specific interactions can be excluded by setting the appropriate option to false in the constructor options, but the order for interactions is fixed.

API - Interaction

The default set of interactions in sequence :

 

API - Interaction

this.map = new ol.Map({
      target: 'map',
      interactions: ol.interaction.defaults({
        mouseWheelZoom: false
      }),
  var drawMarkerPoints = new ol.interaction.Draw({
      type: "Point",
      source: this.markerSource
    });

- Interaction that allows drawing geometries

API - Sources & Formats

  • Tile sources => ol.layer.Tile

  • Vector sources => ol.layer.Vector

  • Image sources => ol.layer.Image

  • Formats for reading/writing vector data => ol.format.WMSCapabilities

API - Sources & Formats

- Layer source for tile data with URLs in a set XYZ format that are defined in a URL template. By default, this follows the widely-used Google grid where x 0 and y 0 are in the top left. Grids like TMS where x 0 and y 0 are in the bottom left can be used by using the {-y} placeholder in the URL template, so long as the source does not have a custom tile grid

var baseLayer;
    if(isProduction) {
      baseLayer = new ol.layer.Tile({
        source: new ol.source.XYZ({
          url: '/basemap/xyz/DOSM/Desktop/?z={z}&y={y}&x={x}'
        })
      });

API - Sources & Formats

- Layer source for tile data from WMS servers.

 var buLayer = new ol.layer.Tile({
      source: new ol.source.TileWMS({
        serverType: 'geoserver',
        url: wmsBaseUrl,
        params: {
          LAYERS: 'dsm:bu'
        }
      })
    });

API - Sources & Formats

  • Image sources => ol.layer.Image

Subclasses:

API - Sources & Formats

- Provides a source of features for vector layers.

- Vector features provided by this source are suitable for editing.

this.ebSource = new ol.source.Vector();
    var ebLayer = new ol.layer.Vector({
      source: this.ebSource,
      style: new ol.style.Style({
        stroke: new ol.style.Stroke({
          color: "rgb(192,0,0)",
          width: 2
        })
      })
    });

API - Sources & Formats

API - Sources & Formats

  • Formats for reading/writing vector data => ol.format.GeoJSON

  • format : ol.format.GeoJSON

- Format for reading and writing data in the GeoJSON format

 mounted() {
    this.gjFormat = new ol.format.GeoJSON({
      featureProjection: 'EPSG:3857'
    });

API - Features

  • A vector object for geographic features with a geometry and other attributes properties, similar to the features in vector file formats like GeoJSON.

  • format : ol.Feature
var feature = new ol.Feature({
  geometry: new ol.geom.Polygon(polyCoords),
  labelPoint: new ol.geom.Point(labelCoords),
  name: 'My Polygon'
});

// get the polygon geometry
var poly = feature.getGeometry();

// Render the feature as a point using the coordinates from labelPoint
feature.setGeometryName('labelPoint');

// get the point geometry
var point = feature.getGeometry();

API - Features

DRAW_POINTS(payload) {
      // Draw the points on the map + set label
      let { label, coordinates } = payload;
      let newCurrentFeature = new ol.Feature(new ol.geom.Point(coordinates));
      newCurrentFeature.set("text", label);
      this.markerSource.addFeature(newCurrentFeature);

      // Push the points to the submit object
      this.PUSH_POINTS_TO_SUBMIT({label, coordinates});
    },

Projection

All coordinates and extents need to be provided in view projection (default: EPSG:3857)

//Transforms a coordinate from longitude/latitude to a different projection.
this.mapView = new ol.View({
      center: ol.proj.fromLonLat([101.5183469, 3.0738379]),
      zoom: 12,
      minZoom: 11,
      maxZoom: 19
});

Basic Concepts

Map

  • Core component (ol/Map)

  • It rendered to a target container (example: a div element on the web page that contains the map)

import Map from 'ol/Map';

var map = new Map({target: 'map'});

//dsl job-assignment.js
    this.map = new ol.Map({
      target: 'ol-map-eb',
      layers: [baseLayer, ebLayer],
      view: this.mapView
    });

Basic Concepts

View

  • Responsible for things like zoom level and projection of the map

  • Projection : determines the coordinate system of the center and units for map resolution calculations.

  • Default projection is Spherical Mercator (EPSG:3857) with meters as map units.

Basic Concepts

View

import View from 'ol/View';

map.setView(new View({
  center: [0, 0],
  zoom: 2
}));

//dsl job-assignment
 this.map = new ol.Map({
      target: 'ol-map-eb',
      layers: [baseLayer, ebLayer],
      view: this.mapView
    });
    this.gjFormat = new ol.format.GeoJSON({
      featureProjection: 'EPSG:3857'
    });

Basic Concepts

Source

  • To get remote data for a layer, OpenLayers uses ol/source/Source subclass

  • Available for free & commercials map tile services - OpenStreetMap/Bing
    - OCG sources like WMS/WMTS
    - Vector data in formats like GeoJSON/KML

Basic Concepts

import OSM from 'ol/source/OSM';

var osmSource = OSM();

//dsl job-assignment
   this.gjFormat = new ol.format.GeoJSON({
      featureProjection: 'EPSG:3857'
    });

Source

Basic Concepts

Layer

  • A visual representation of data from a source

  • Basic types of layers

  1. Tile
    - Renders sources that provide tiled images in grids that are organized by zoon levels for specific resolutions.
  2. Image
    - Renders sources that provide map images at arbitrary extents and resolutions

Basic Concepts

Layer

  • Basic types of layers

3. Vector
     - Renders vector data client-side

4. VectorTile
    - Renders data that is provided as vector tiles

 

Basic Concepts

Layer

import TileLayer from 'ol/layer/Tile';

var osmLayer = new TileLayer({source: osmSource});
map.addLayer(osmLayer);

//dsl job-assignment - Tile
   var baseLayer = new ol.layer.Tile({
      source: new ol.source.XYZ({
        url: basemapUrl
      })
    });
    
    
 dsl job-assignment.js - Vector
 // prepare eb layer
    this.ebSource = new ol.source.Vector();
    var ebLayer = new ol.layer.Vector({
      source: this.ebSource,
      style: function style(feature) {
        return new ol.style.Style({
          stroke: new ol.style.Stroke({
            color: 'red',
            width: 2
          }),
          fill: new ol.style.Fill({
            color: [255, 0, 0, 0.1]
          }),
          text: new ol.style.Text({
            font: '12px Arial',
            fill: new ol.style.Fill({
              color: 'black'
            }),
            text: feature.get('ngdbbp') || ''
          })
        });
      }
    });
