Locago

Welcome, developer!

With Locago anyone can create a new layer to show geographic data.

You can, for example, show where your favorite restaurants or your jogging trails are located. You can also let the user access the geographical information dynamically, such as the wikipedia layer.

A layer consists of at least two files. The IGEO file where geographic data is stored and the IDOC file to describe the layer page.

In a simplified description, the IGEO file corresponds to the overlay of the map and the IDOC file presents the layer page.




How to publish a layer

The steps to create a layer are as follows:

  1. Write the IGEO file
  2. Write the IDOC file
  3. Make the files available on the Internet
  4. Publish the location where your layer can be found on the publisher page

 

Please follow the static layer tutorial to understand the steps.
