It's fourth dimension in 1 trial once to a greater extent than for the annual round-up of the best interactive maps of the twelvemonth - nearly.
There are over 100 maps inwards this year's collection of amazing maps. I've thence decided to carve upwardly this upwardly into ii parts. Today y'all become the 2015 Maps of the Year - Part One. This offset business office of the 100 best maps of the twelvemonth features interactive maps which were released from Jan - June 2015. The remainder of the twelvemonth volition come upwardly adjacent week, inwards Part Two of the round-up.
You tin form out the maps yesteryear mapping platform. The platforms include Leaflet, Mapbox, the Google Maps API, CartoDB, Esri as well as Other.
While browsing the collection y'all powerfulness detect that Leaflet has taken over from the Google Maps API equally the mapping platform of alternative for the discerning developer. This reflects a full general designing that I've noticed over the final ii years, where the Google Maps API is getting used less as well as less equally developers plow to a greater extent than & to a greater extent than to other mapping platforms.
In final year's Maps of the Year round-up I ignored all maps which weren't made alongside the aid of Leaflet, Mapbox, the Google Maps API, CartoDB or Esri. This twelvemonth I couldn't ignore the high lay out of peachy maps which conduct maintain been created without the aid of these mapping libraries. WebGL as well as JavaScript libraries such equally D3.js appear to conduct maintain encouraged a lot of developers to blast out on their own.
More adjacent calendar week ....
