openlayers

It's not thought as an actual replacement for google maps/leaflet/openlayers, but to generate interactive backgrounds for websites.

But the map tiles are hosted on S3 and free to use as a custom map layer in Leaflet/OpenLayers/GMaps API.

Recommendations for you: (1) Unless there are licensing issues, you'll probably find a bunch of useful js code you can use from OpenLayers.

It also exists in all online slippy maps I've used from the latest OpenLayers to the latest Google Maps.

This is my own map engine code (not OpenLayers, or Google Maps).

There's equivalent functionality is OpenLayers 3, but the API has changed.

Using Memcached on Amazon EC2 + openlayers + Google WGS84 tiles.

OpenLayers 3 comes with loads of functionality built in.

It's actually based on Google Maps API, which isn't open source, but OpenLayers has equivalent functionality though I find it less fluid and slower...

Hi these look really impressive, at the moment I'm building something with Openlayers 2, any feel for how big of a jump it is to port stuff to ol3?

For example I know that Firefox SVG support is buggy and I need to use Canvas version of OpenLayers for that browser - how am I supposed to do it without UA sniffing?

> OpenLayers has a very wide range of functions, and it pays the price in terms of size, occupying almost 1 Mb of digital space: not ideal for mobile applications.

Hired an illustrator to do a watercolor of the campus on large tiles (maybe 8" by 11") and then scanned them in at high resolution and created a large image that we ran through OpenLayers [1] and built a searchable campus map.

What is interesting with MapBox, is that they essentially offer functionality similar to Geoserver + Openlayers, but with a far more focused, nice, modern user experience.
