Web Mapping Development

Extend and modify Cadcorp SIS WebMap

Cadcorp SIS WebMap includes built-in capabilities for extension and customisation using .NET.

Add-ins can be written to extend the capabilities of, and create, websites based on SIS WebMap controls. These use the development environment as the mechanism for linking and providing interactive functionality. They can access the SIS WebMap Web.UI, the Cadcorp GeognoSIS^® HTTP and SOAP interfaces, and other development environments to extend the existing website and link to other systems.

Developers can also create their own websites, based on SIS WebMap controls. The dedicated Web.UI contains JavaScript classes and controls which allow developers to build, from the ground up, their own version of the SIS WebMap site. All components of the website can be added to a blank page to build custom mapping websites.

Client-side development can take place by dropping the interactive mapping control directly into any html page to provide embedded mapping support. This can be optionally extended with custom functionality using JavaScript on the client side.
