Mobile GIS and Mapping Applications with Leaflet

Mobile GIS and Mapping Applications with Leaflet

This course is focused on designing web-based mapping applications for mobile devices. I start with an example of a desktop app showing the course of a trail ultramaraton with aid stations, elevation profiles, etc. Then we modify some formatting to deal with issues arising from small screens, add the ability to track the user automatically with the devices GPS, and add the ability to use it off-line in all situations.

Take your applications outside, with or without connectivity

What you will learn

• Students will learn to format web mapping applications to deal with small screens, touch screens, and screens of varying sizes. They will also learn how to take advantage of the GPS sensor on mobile devices, store data on board, create an application cache so the application can be loaded off-line, and create custom base maps that can be used off-line.
