• Zooming User Interface (ZUI)

  You probably know this, but in Google Maps at least, you can use browser zoom (ctrl/cmd +/-) to change the size of labels without zooming into the actual map. ------ Speaking of maps, I got to work a fun zoom project a few years ago: https://map.fieldmuseum.org/ We used https://openlayers.org/ and thought long and hard about how to best handle zooming and variable levels of information density & visual hierarchy.... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Handling files in enterprise web solutions

  In order to display the GeoJSON features on a map, we will use OpenLayers, which is a very powerful open-source mapping library that is also very simple to use. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• 5 JavaScript mapping APIs compared

  OpenLayers is a modular, high-performance library designed for displaying and interacting with maps and geospatial data.

• I'm a senior in my CS major and it's incredible I didn't hear about GIS projects until now. Glad to be here.

  For web maps I'd strongly recommend using OpenLayers. While it's less convenient to get started with compared to the alternatives it's also much more feature-complete and you'll likely hit a ceiling in terms of functionality much later than you would with the others. Source: about 1 year ago

• A new Supreme Court case seeks to legalize assault weapons in all 50 states

  I'd imagine even just individual small-time investors are having a pretty large impact. I know several people--none of whom are wealthy--who own a few rentals as a side income/investment as I'm sure a lot of people do. The rental homes are generally exactly the type of house that first-time buyers would be looking at as a starter home, but instead they're off the buyers market likely for decades because the owners...

• How to determine property lines?

  A GPS map app may get you within a reasonable distance of the corner. I use CalTopo, but parcel boundaries require a paid subscription. Regrid or similar services often have trials of their parcel data. Note that GPS generated parcel bounds are often inaccurate, and should not be relied upon. Use GPS to get close. Documented evidence on the ground determines the bound. Source: about 1 year ago

• If you're going to film an at-home documentary in a house that isn't really yours, probably best *not* to do it in one furnished by mega-profits made from charitable donations for disabled VETERANS, Harry.

• It’s Public Land. But the Public Can’t Reach It

  In the US this tends to be done at the city or county level, as far as I know. In my state each city has their own land parcel database that they make available. That said, this commenter pointed to https://regrid.com as a company that aggregates all this local data and provides a nationwide parcel map - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33755133. Regrid looks great and might work for you. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
