This appendix shows a sample implementation of a spatial data provider, and explains how to register this provider to be used with MapViewer. The complete implementation can be found under the MapViewer web/demo/spatialprovider
directory. The implementation uses then following files:
us_bigcities.xml
: sample XML file that the provider parses
customSpatialProviderSample.java
: Java implementation of the spatial data provider
spatialprovider.jar
: jar file with the compiled version of the customSpatialProviderSample.java source file
The us_bigcities.xml
file has sections to define the data attributes, the data extents, and the feature information, including the geometry (in GML format) and the attribute values. This file includes the following:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?> <spatial_data> <data_attributes> <attribute name="city" type="string" /> <attribute name="state_abrv" type="string" /> <attribute name="pop90" type="double" /> </data_attributes> <data_extents> <xmin> -122.49586 </xmin> <ymin> 29.45765 </ymin> <xmax> -73.943849 </xmax> <ymax> 42.3831 </ymax> </data_extents> <geoFeature> <attributes> New York,NY,7322564 </attributes> <geometricProperty> <Point> <coordinates>-73.943849, 40.6698</coordinates> </Point> </geometricProperty> </geoFeature> . . . </spatial_data>
This appendix contains the following major sections:
The provider must implement the class interface shown in Section 2.3.10. Example D-1 contains the partial code for the spatial provider in the supplied demo. Note that this sample code is deliberately simplified; it is not optimized, and the provider does not create any spatial indexing mechanism.

In this sample there is no * spatial index. The data is loaded into memory when data is parsed. * @return */ public boolean buildSpatialIndex(Properties params) { return true; } }
After you have implemented the provider code, compile it and generate a jar file with this compiled class. The file spatialprovider.jar
in the demo directory contains the compiled version of this sample code, and you can use it directly. Copy this jar file to a directory that is part of MapViewer's CLASSPATH definition, such as the web/WB-INF/lib
directory.
To register the spatial provider with MapViewer, add the following in the spatial provider section of the MapViewer configuration file, and then restart MapViewer:
<s_data_provider id="xmlProvider" class="spatialprovider.samples.CustomSpatialProviderSample" > <parameters> <parameter name="datadir" value="/temp/data" /> </parameters> </s_data_provider>
When you restart MapViewer, you should see a console message that the spatial provider has been registered. For example:
2007-10-01 14:30:31.109 NOTIFICATION Spatial Provider xmlProvider has been registered.
To enable you to render the sample external spatial data that comes with MapViewer kit., create a data source pointing to this data Example D-2 is an XML request that contains a dynamic custom geometry theme.
Example D-2 Map Request to Render External Spatial Data
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?> <map_request title="Custom Geometry Theme" datasource="mvdemo" width="500" height="400" bgcolor="#a6caf0" antialiase="true" format="PNG_STREAM" > <center size="40"> <geoFeature> <geometricProperty typeName="center"> <Point> <coordinates>-90,32</coordinates> </Point> </geometricProperty> </geoFeature> </center> <themes> <theme name="custom_theme" > <custom_geom_theme provider_id="xmlProvider" srid="8307" render_style="M.CIRCLE" label_column="city" label_style="T.CITY NAME" datasource="mvdemo"> <parameters> <parameter name="filename" value="/lbs/demo/spatialprovider/us_bigcities.xml"/> </parameters> </custom_geom_theme> </theme> </themes> </map_request>
In Example D-2, the file name in the <parameter>
element points to /lbs/demo/spatialprovider/us_bigcities.xml
. If the file path is not accessible to MapViewer, the map request may generate error messages in the log file, such as the following:
07/09/28 10:26:47 ParseData: Can not access file: /lbs/demo/spatialprovider/us_bigcities.xml 07/09/28 10:26:47 ParseData: File to be parsed: /temp/data\us_bigcities.xml 07/09/28 10:26:47 ParseData: File can not be accessed on provider data directory. Copy files there.
When MapViewer searches for the file, it first tries to access the file using the original theme definition parameter; and if that fails, it tries the data directory defined in the MapViewer configuration file (/temp/data
in the preceding example error messages). Therefore, if the original theme definition data path is not accessible to MapViewer, copy the data files to the directory defined in the configuration file before you issue the map request.
If MapViewer can find the data file, the map request inExample D-2 should generate an image like the one in Figure D-1.
