ASP.NET AJAX Mapping System

ASP.NET AJAX Mapping System


A smooth scrolling web mapping system that can be used on a variety of web-browsers without the need to download or run a plug-in.


Not just an API

Built using ASP.NET to provide industrial strength technology for enterprise solutions. A complete mapping system comprising:

  • ISYS Map image handler service.
  • ISYS Map overlay handler service.
  • ISYS Map function web service.
  • ISYS Map JavaScript API

The server side ISYS Map image handler service provides all the map images.

The server side ISYS Map overlay handler service provides all the map overlay images for multi-layer maps.

The server side ISYS Map function service provides map data functions such as postcode and address functions, routing functions and data conversion functions.

Client side JavaScript ties it all together by providing the mapping functionality in the client browser that makes use of the above server side services.

All necessary source code (ASP.NET, C# and JavaScript), is provided so that you can integrate and extend as required to fully suit your customers requirements.


Internet and Intranet

Suitable not only for Internet web mapping systems, but also for Intranet web mapping systems. Where it is either desireable or necessary to host the web mapping system on an Intranet server(s) the ISYS Map image handler service and the ISYS Map function service can both be installed on an Intranet server.


Easy integration

A few simple steps is all it takes to add mapping to an ASP.NET web application:

  • On the master or default.aspx page include references to the ISYS Map JavaScript files.
  • Create a div container for each map.
  • Call a javascript function to add a map to each div container.
  • Call other JavaScript functions as required to add symbols, pictures, drawings, context menus, routes etc. to each map.

Comprehensive capability

The ISYS Map JavaSript API contains over 100 functions controlling everything from user interface options to drawing functions.

  • 5 functions for routing.
  • 7 functions for adding, moving, removing div containers on the map (to which you can add whatever elements and controls you want: images, animations, video, text, buttons, forms etc.)
  • 8 functions for converting coordinates between map XY, Lat/Long, OS Grid, Postcode etc.
  • 12 functions for zoom.
  • 14 functions for context menus.
  • 15 functions for scrolling.
  • 22 functions for drawing circles, lines, polylines, polygons, rectangles with different coordinate, size, colour, fill and shading options.
