Mark data on map

Hi
id like to do something similar to this
www.pininthemap.com
As a basic starting point
Id like to have a world map graphic where anyone can add a flag to a location on the map and then type a comment which will be linked to that flag.
Users can view the map with all the added flags on and choose to read the comments by clicking an existing flag.. and then hopefully add there own flag for their location and write a comment.
I understand this might be quite difficult as i dont have any advanced programming experience (only actionscript 2.0). But im really not sure where to start or how this can be done.
Does anyone have any ideas?
thanks allot in advance.

If you want to do it in Java then you'll need to learn Java before you can do it.
Eventually you'll do some stuff with paintComponent and MouseListeners but that's off in the future. For now [_start here_|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/index.html]

  • Best swing class choices for overlaying instruments/marker data on map?

    Hi everyone. The title pretty much says it all.
    I'm looking for some insight into how to draw things correctly so I don't get glitches. This is a nautical GPS application. Right now I have the following classes:
    MapView extends JPanel
    VectorMap (standalone class)
    InstrumentOverlay extends JPanel
    BoatOverlay JPanel
    GPSGridOverlay (standalone class)
    MapView is simply a place to consolidate the drawing of everything. VectorMap is actually the data storage object for a series of contour lines and geographic points with associated text labels. GPSGridOverlay and InstrumentOverlay are things that will overlay and possibly move around on top of the map. When I drag my InstrumentOverlay around, it smears any other overlayed data (like the BoatOverlay or GPSGridOverlay). It doesn't smear the background map. I can only fix it by manually calling repaint on MapView. I can post a screenshot if that would help.
    My question is, am I doing this in a silly manner? What would be a better choice of Swing classes for this task? Is it alright to use standalone classes as I have done and pass them a Graphics object to paint into, or should they be made into Swing class objects like JPanels?
    the paintComponent method of my MapView object is:
    protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
         Graphics2D g2D = (Graphics2D) g;
    // clear screen
         g2D.setColor(new Color(255,255,255));
         g2D.fillRect(0,0,getWidth(),getHeight());
    // manually paint components that aren't JPanels
         vectormap.draw(g2D);
         gpsgridoverlay.draw(g2D);
    // JPanel children (instrument, boat) will paint automatically after this due to
    // paintChildren() call made by swing.
    }

  • 'Select a measure:' stuck on 'Loading...' in Dashboard Designer KPI Dimensional Data Source Mapping

    [using SharePoint 2013 Enterprise SP1]
    I am trying to create a KPI in Dashboard Designer, but am getting a timeout. I have been doing this for a while on my site; this is not the first. I haven't had this problem before.
    I created a new KPI and clicked on the Data Mappings column value, which is a hyperlink, to bring up the Dimensional Data Source Mapping dialog. I switched to a Data Connection in the site I just created (DC works perfectly and can retrieve sample data).
    When I click the "Select a measure:" drop-down menu, I get the message "Loading..." and after a while (a minute? two?) a dialog pops up with:
    The request took too long to complete. SharePoint is currently unavailable or experiencing heavy traffic. Try again later.
    This is a test SP server and I'm the only one on it, so there is no load. Also as mentioned, I am able to verify the Data Connection without problem. I am not having any issue with any of my other few dozen KPIs/Data Connections. Any suggestions as to how
    to troubleshoot?

    Hi cgtyoder,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you created a KPI in Dashboard Designer.
    Please try to recycle the PerformancePoint Services Application Pool account, compare the result.
    Please go to C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\the port of web application, adjust the HttpRuntime executionTimeout for the Web Application by modifying the web.config, now PerformancePoint report stability is much better:
    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="600" maxRequestLength="51200" />
    Note: before you change the web.config file, please make a bakcup for the file.
    If this issue still exists, please go to the log file to find more information about this issue.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • I would like to mark data on my iPhone / iPad as private or hide it. Is it possible? I could do it on my Palmpilot. Any data - addresses, calendar entries, files, anything could be hidden on the palm pilot. It'd be great to see this facility on apl pdts

    I would like to mark data on my iPhone / iPad as private or hide it and only unlock it with a different password. Is it possible? I could do it on my Palmpilot. Any data - addresses, calendar entries, files, anything could be hidden on the palm pilot. It'd be great to see this facility on apple products.

    I know what you meant. As I said, it's not possible to do so on the iPhone. Of course Apple could add such a feature to a future version of iOS, it's only software, but so far they haven't. You can suggest such a feature to Apple here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • Iphone 5 Excessive Data Usage Mapping Services

    I have had my Iphone 5 since December 2013. Recently I have been having problems with my cellular data usage where my phone will use more than 900mb a day. After investigating the issue I noticed that the biggest problem is mapping services. This was not making sense as frequent location settings and all location settings are switched off. I went to my service provider MTC (This is the service provider in Namibia, Africa) and they advised me to upgrade to IOS 7.1.2. According to them Apple has made more services available on our carrier and that I needed the newest IOS to be able to manage these services.
    I have updated my IOS to 7.1.2 yesterday 28 July at 12:00. Since then till yesterday afternoon at 17:00 my phone used over 500mb of which 418mb was for system services which after investigation revealed that 415mb was for mapping services. The location settings and frequent location settings are still switch off, but I am still using data for mapping services. The data in Namibia is not the cheapest and this has caused me to have to switch off my cellular data to ensure that I don't run my cellphone bill through the roof. I am now sitting with an equivalent of a Nokia 3310 as I can only sms and phone from my Iphone. I do not have access to WIFI so using that is not an option.
    I have a friend with a Iphone 5S and one with and Iphone 4 and they do not seem to have the same problem as I do. Is it only Iphone 5?
    If anyone has the same problem, I hear that it is also the case in South Africa, please help me make it heard by Apple or give me a solution if you have one.

    I see about 500MB for "Time & Location" tracking. You can check here: Mobile Network -> System tasks -> Time & Location (roughly translated from German iOS 7 menu. Can someone please write down the correct english menu entries?).
    I believe it is the Google App (https://itunes.apple.com/de/app/id284815942?mt=8), which is tracking me (https://maps.google.com/locationhistory/b/0). I like beeing tracked since i'm sometimes curious where i have spent my time;). But 500MB is far too much - i have only 1GB per month.

  • Best way to mark data that has changed when it is edited in  a spark datagrid?

    I am not sure if this is the best way to mark data that has changed (isModifiedClientSide ) when it is edited in  a spark datagrid:
    <GridColumn  width="140" headerText="Margin "dataField="margin" editable="false"  editable.editMode="true"  >
                        <itemRenderer>
                            <fx:Component>

                            </fx:Component>

    I tried this but the value commit doesnt't get fired bro:

  • Map marker + geolocation (google maps)

    I'm currently working on embedding a google map in my app. The geolocating already works ( I used this code: DPS Tips HTML5 Examples, thanks Bob!), but I just can't add markers to the map. I tried different codes but none seem to work. I would also need the markers to have their names shown (e.g. hotspot 1, hotspot 2).
    Has anyone here found a solution for this and would be kind enough to share?
    Thanks in advance!

    hi! I used the code for geolocation from the link above, and this code for the marker: Simple markers - Google Maps JavaScript API v3 — Google Developers
    It both works independently, but I can't mix them. I also can't find a way to modify my marker ( own icon) and add an info box. 
    I tried some of the following links to try and work those aspects to the marker file, if it helps with finding a solution:

  • How to get last date of mapping execution?

    Hi all,
    Anybody knows how to get the last run date mapping? I try to develop incremental load, but i don´t know get the last date of mapping execution ok.
    anybody can help me, thanks in advanced

    Hi,
    In our project we also use last_run_date to detect the delta for incremental loading.
    We created a table which holds the run date and time for each mapping. When a mapping is new (initial load) the run date is set to 01/01/1900.
    In each mapping we added a post-mapping process that inserts a record in the process table with the mapping name and last run date.
    We also added a Constant operator to all mappings, calling a procedure to get the last_run_date out of our own process table.
    The constant attribute is then used in a FILTER operator to compare the dates and select only dates after the last run date.
    ==============================
    An other option is to use the get this information out of the runtime audit tables.
    ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS which reside in the runtime owner schema.

  • Data Load - Data / Table Mapping Columns Not Showing

    Hi,
    Using the new 4.1 functionality I have created a data load wizard.
    Everything seems to have created OK however when i run the wizard and get to the Data / Table Mapping stage (2nd page) the column names lov contains no list of values.
    The table i am trying to load in is in another schema but all the grants are there so that schema can view it.
    Any idea what I need to do or what I have missed so the columns can be viewed.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    You have to log in as admin and there should be an option to add schemas, once adding it should appear in the lov.

  • When I upload a cvs file not all the column display in the Data / Table Mapping screen

    1. I have created application using Apex Data Loading wizard. There when I am trying to load data from .csv file, but not all the columns display in the "Data / Table Mapping" screen. But if I go through AQL --> Utility --> Data Workshop, there all column display in "Data / Table Mapping" page. I want to get same thing in application I created. How will get all columns display in the screen?
    2. Is there any way to select target table dynamically during runtime. So that in appication we can select different target tables with different source file to load data.

    Your user info says iPad. This is the OS X Numbers forum. Assuming you are using OS X… Be sure the file is named with a .csv suffix.

  • Technical Design Review Question: Data target Mapping and transformation

    I got my hands on technical design documentation for a project on COPA budget. I came up with a few questions but I will post them separately for fast closing and awards:
    In the discussions of Data target Mapping and transformation, there was a table of characteristics, showing dimensions, BW filed, Source field, data type, etc.
    1. What is the technique in deciding which characteristics get grouped together into a particular dimension?
    2. Why do some dimensions only have one characteristic and what is its significance?
    3. I saw one BW field, OVAL_TYPE (description= valuation type) included in three dimensions: Customer, Material and Valuation Type(only field=OVAL_TYPE). What is the significance of this repetition?
    Thanks

    Morning,
    To define Dimension means, to group all characters together, which do have a relationship "1 to n" and not "n to m" to reduce data volume (cardinality). If you reduce cardinality (which means to define 1:m relationship whenever it is possible and group them within one common dimension) you increase performance (make performance better) because of less data volume. It is essential to understand that this can not be changed easily after definition in PROD. So data modeling is also from this point of view very important.
    Example:
    An accounting object has a "m:n" relation ship to the accounting partner object. that's the reason way accounting object and accounting partner object do not belong to the same dimension.

  • Incorporating Spatial Data and maps

    I am trying to figure out how to create a map from spatial data w/in forms9i, but I can't find any documentation. Has anyone been succesful at this?
    Thanks,
    Jeremy.

    to use read_image_file() to show map on form is to show the map as static image, user cannot click ROOM IN button, then click a point on the image to show the details.
    so to get it inside form and want the map to respond like on browser is interested feature to know, and also the download time and performance if finally done inside form is a big question mark too.
    simply running the mapviewer on browser is properly the better way compared to invoke it inside form.
