[ka-Map-users] Capabilities of ka-map

[Paul Spencer]

Dave,

its a work in progress :)

It has some basic query capabilities.  It provides a point/rect query  
tool that can inform you of when a query has happened, but you need  
to actually do something with the query request.  There is a sample  
implementation of query code in cvs I believe.

Distance measuring has been done by some folks, I don't think there  
is an implementation in cvs yet.  I have a ruler tool that is not yet  
contributed, it is likely that I will contribute it soonish (mostly a  
matter of finding the time)

Drawing points, lines, polygons etc is a work in progress, some of  
the other developers are investigating alternatives for rendering  
overlays using both client side and server side techniques.  There is  
no clear winner yet :)

Cheers

Paul
