Abstract:
We present a set of web components that enable the declarative development of web-based, map-centered applications in a simple way. To do this, we used the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standard Web Components, which enables the development of new HTML elements. The developed components encapsulate the functionality of the leaflet library, a widely used Javascript library for the realization of map-based applications. The declarative approach makes it possible for non-programmers to develop applications within a short time. Some of the developed components have interfaces for accessing server-side information, such as GeoJSON-data sources and time series databases. This makes it possible to develop information-rich, “live” applications with our components.
