Utilize the powerful #Leaflet.js to create mapping applications with Packt’s new book and eBook Packt is pleased to announce the launch of its new book for mapping applications, #Leaflet.js Essentials. Using this invaluable guide, developers will be able to create and customize mapping applications through tutorials that are presented in a step-by-step manner. This book covers the basic and advanced features of Leaflet.js. About the author: Paul Crickard III has been programming for over 15 years and has focused on GIS and geospatial programming for 7 years. He spent 3 years working as a planner at an architecture firm, where he combined GIS with Building Information Modeling (BIM) and CAD, and built web-based GIS applications to display and modify architectural data. He has given presentations to the New Mexico Public School Facilities Authority on BIM and GIS integration and on the use of GIS for Facility Planning, and the BIM505 Users Group on GIS as an interactive frontend to BIM and editing BIM data via web applications. Leaflet.js Essentials begins with the simple process of how to create maps using the various attributes such as zoom, start view, and pop ups. Developers will also learn how to enrich their mapping application using various libraries, plugins, and much more. Developers will learn to create custom markers as well as learn how to use various plugins like the Cluster Marker plugin, the Bouncing Marker, and the Animated Marker, which enables users to animate markers in their maps. Developers will be able to combine Leaflet with GeoJSON and add geometric objects as well. Web developers seeking mapping solutions who are comfortable using geospatial concepts and mapping APIs will find this book a valuable resource.
