Free map states software for linux

Geography::States is a Perl module with map states and provinces to their codes, and vice versa.

SYNOPSIS

use Geography::States;

my $obj = Geography::States -> new (COUNTRY [, STRICT]);

EXAMPLES

my $canada = Geography::States -> new (Canada);

my $name = $canada -> state (NF); # Newfoundland.
my $code = $canada -> state (Ontario); # ON.
my ($code, $name) = $canada -> state (BC); # BC, British Columbia.
my @all_states = $canada -> state; # List code/name pairs.

This module lets you map states and provinces to their codes, and codes to names of provinces and states.

The Geography::States - new ()> call takes 1 or 2 arguments. The first, required, argument is the country we are interested in. Current supported countries are USA, Brazil, Canada, The Netherlands, and Australia. If a second non-false argument is given, we use strict mode. In non-strict mode, we will map territories and alternative codes as well, while we do not do that in strict mode. For example, if the country is USA, in non-strict mode, we will map GU to Guam, while in strict mode, neither GU and Guam will be found.

The state() method

All queries are done by calling the state method in the object. This method takes an optional argument. If an argument is given, then in scalar context, it will return the name of the state if a code of a state is given, and the code of a state, if the argument of the method is a name of a state. In list context, both the code and the state will be returned.

If no argument is given, then the state method in list context will return a list of all code/name pairs for that country. In scalar context, it will return the number of code/name pairs. Each code/name pair is a 2 element anonymous array.

Arguments can be given in a case insensitive way; if a name consists of multiple parts, the number of spaces does not matter, as long as there is some whitespace. (That is "NewYork" is wrong, but "new YORK" is fine.)

Maps project is a topographal map and aerial photo generator and viewer.

Maps allows users to generate topographical maps and aerial photographs of any region in the United States.

It uses data provided by the USGS through the geoserver system.

The interactive view lets you move around, zoom in and out, and locate named geographical features.

Xrmap is a program running under X that can interactively display portions of the Earth, using the huge CIA world vector map.
The Xrmap program provides a user-friendly X client for generating images of the Earth and manipulating the CIA World data bank II global vector information (a huge geodata set of about 45 MB).
Available features include coastlines and islands, political boundaries, major and minor rivers, glaciers, lakes, canals, reefs, etc. The images can be accurately zoomed in, up to a factor of 100 or more. The package also contains a rather comprehensive data set of world cities and locations - about 20000 cities are listed.
Xrmap is derived from the rmap console only utility by Reza Naima.
However, xrmap has many more features than the original rmap, especially it implements Rectangular, Mercator and Miller projections in addition to the Spherical projection, as well as reverse search of coordinates. All parameters and configurations can be set interactively from the GUI.
Xrmap supports writing images in ppm, xpm, ps or compressed ppm.gz, xpm.gz, ps.gz formats. It can also produce images without entering into the GUI, since most parameters can alternatively be set via the command line options (still, xrmap requires the X environment to do so, in contrast with rmap).
Enhancements:
- Xrmap now directly reads vector formats EPS, SVG or bitmap formats PNG, GIF, JPG. The encapsulated PostScript format EPS is the preferred format for flags, since it is reasonably fast and provides resizable and better looking flags. Other formats are no longer needed to run xrmap, although slower machines can benefit from installing the xpm_150 flags as a fallback, since they load much faster and occupy less disk space...
- Overall handling of images improved, a memory cache is used, more explicit error messages are provided, etc.
- Option -define "picon|..." replaced by more general -define "image|..." which supports all image types recognized by xrmap.
- Bug fixes : option -define "exec|..." was fixed. Thanks to the FreeBSD port maintainer (Serge Gagnon ) for pointing out the bug. Many other small fixes.
- Uploaded version 2.5 of SVG/EPS/PNG/XPM flags, including some additions and corrections (flags of Bangladesh, Morocco, Pakistan, Sudan, United States; French, Danish, Portuguese, Spanish, US and UK territories completed)
- Support for mouse wheel buttons in emx and all xrmap functions (file explorer, scrolling lists)
- An abbreviated menu with the most common functions is now opened by default (rather than the intimidating complete menu).
- Improvement in file explorer (more numerous file types are recognized).
- Data window GUI reworked (and hopefully improved)
- Smarter exit routine (xrmap asks confirmation rather than quitting abruptly).
- New release. The binary size increased by more than 14%. Sloccount indicates more than 25,000 lines of code in total (7% increase with respect to 2.32).

SILC Map is an utility which can be used to visualize the topology of a SILC network. This project can create maps which indicate the exact global position of the servers and it can create HTML pages out of the information it gathers from the servers.

It is also possible to create a HTML map page which allows the user to click the servers on the map image to get more detailed information of the server. The links between the routers and servers can also be drawn on the map image.

GD::Map is Perl extension for creating geographic map files with GD.

SYNOPSIS

use GD::Map;
my $m = GD::Map:new(
basemap_path => "[required]",
output_path => "[required]",
verbose => 1,
);
$m->set_basemap("northamerica");
$m->add_object(id => "route", type => "line", color => "255,0,0");
$m->add_data(
id => "route",
start_long => 123.1,
end_long => 124.7,
start_lat => 49.3,
end_lat => 37.5,
);
$m->draw();

my $filename = "$m->{filename}.png";
my $w = $m->{map_width};
my $h = $m->{map_height};

ABSTRACT

Perl extension for creating geographic map files with GD

easygmap is an online map builder to create simple, easy-to-use maps with Google Maps.

The project allows the user to add markers to the map and optionally giving each marker a name, description, and picture. The finished map can then be sent to the email address of the users choice.

kraskarta is an interactive map engine. It is based on Macromedia Flash technology with server scripts written in Perl with a PostgreSQL database.
kraskartas features include the ability to search for a street and address, for a bus route, and for information about objects.
Enhancements:
- This is the first open release after being proprietary code.

Bio::Map::MappableI is an object that can be placed in a map.

SYNOPSIS

# get a Bio::Map::MappableI somehow
my $position = $element->map_position();
# these methods will be important for building sorted lists
if( $position->equals($p2) ) {
# do something
} elsif( $position->less_tha($p2) ) {}
elsif( $position->greater_than($p2) ) { }

This object handles the generic notion of an element placed on a (linear) Map. Elements can have multiple positions in a map such as is the case of Restriction enzyme cut sites on a sequence map. For exact information about an elements position in a map one must query the associate PositionI object which is accessible through the position() method.
