Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

Has anyone >used openmap with visad. Or if VisAD can read a map database such >as DCW and display it. Unidata has developed classes for reading map files in ESRI Shapefile format which can be used with VisAD. We have a ucar.visad.ShapefileAdapter class that will create a UnionSet of SampledSets representing the Shapefile. I notice that OpenMap has their own classes for reading Shapefiles, but have not investigated OpenMap very much. You might be able to do something similar by creating a DCWAdapter that adapts the DCW data in OpenMap to a VisAD Data object. I'm not familiar with the DCW format. You can access our code from the link off the VisAD homepage or directly at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/community/committees/metapps Don ************************************************************* Don Murray UCAR Unidata Program dmurray@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx P.O.
