Why you need a Multimedia Client?

If you want to use a gison3dmap on a public display, you need to have a simple multimedia application, where one can navigate using intuitive menus, as in a web page, and be able to see, for a specific topic, data projected on the 3D map with a click of a button.

GIS clients will most certainly be too complicated for this purpose.

It is a very simple task to project selected geographic features with gison3dmap within a multimedia application. You just need to keep those features within shapefiles and to know how to select what you need using the feature Ids or a query expression, such as “RIVERNAME = ‘TEJO’ ”.

Using the gison3dmap API, you can build such an application according to your specific requirements.

Or you can optionally buy the mmon3dmap application – a multimedia gison3dmap client application - that was developed using that same API, to be a part of the gison3dmap system.

What does the Multimedia Client do?

mmon3dmap uses content pages and parameter files organized as part of a file tree structure, as shown in the image, to automatically generate a dynamic application interface with screens, menus and buttons, that issues gison3dmap projection requests according to user interaction.

The application screens use templates that can be added and modified within limits, to define different layouts, background colors, icons, fonts, etc.

Parameter files include the commands needed to define gison3dmap GIS data selection and projection characteristics, for each page and/or page buttons defined.

Shown in the image is an example of a mmon3dmap screen, using the content of a single page web file (.htm), a menu tree generated according to the folder structure and their parameter files, and two buttons that will issue specific 3D map projections.
