You need some map data of your own (in ESRI Shapefile format or MapInfo MIF) or you can get started with the data provided with the demoes. You should also have a web browser which fully supports Java 1.1 or higher.
Download the latest version of the applet
The easiest way to setup ALOV Map is to store alov_applet.jar file, your HTML files and shape or MIF files into the same directory.
- Assuming that you have a WWW directory http://www.[yourserver].com/alovmap and a GIS shapefile "cities.shp".
- Create a file myproject.xml.
<![CDATA[
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project>
<layer name="Cities">
<dataset url="cities.shp"/>
<symbol fill="0:0:255" outline="0:128:255" size="6"/>
</layer>
</project>
]]>
Pay attention on char case in file names.
NOTE: MIF files should be in pair with DBF files (not with MID).
- Create an HTML file "mydemo.html". The simplest file will look like the following
<![CDATA[
<html>
<applet codebase =.
code = org.alov.viewer.SarApplet
archive = alov_applet.jar
width = 500 height = 300 align=center>
<param name="pid" value="myproject.xml">
</applet>
</html>
]]>
- Copy alov_applet.jar, cities.shp, cities.dbf, mydemo.html and myproject.xml to your web directory.
- Now you can publish your GIS shapefile "cities.shp" through
http://www.[yourserver].com/alovmap/mydemo.html
