DynamicGeoGraphics
DynamicGeoGraphics[primitives,options]
represents a dynamic, interactive, two-dimensional geographical image.
Details and Options



- Using DynamicGeoGraphics requires internet connectivity.
- DynamicGeoGraphics takes a set of geo graphics primitives and returns an interactive image that can be panned and zoomed.
- DynamicGeoGraphics[] gives a map centered on the current geo location.
- DynamicGeoGraphics[GeoGraphics[map]] converts a static map to an interactive map when possible.
- GeoGraphics[DynamicGeoGraphics[map]] creates a static map from an interactive map.
- DynamicGeoGraphics uses the same primitives as Graphics, with the following additions:
-
GeoBoundsRegion[ranges] latitude-longitude rectangle GeoCircle[pt,r] cartographic circle supporting geo entities GeoDisk[pt,r] cartographic disk area supporting geo entities GeoHemisphere[pt] hemisphere centered at position pt GeoHemisphereBoundary[pt] boundary of a hemisphere, i.e. a great circle or ellipse GeoMarker[pts] pushpin supporting geo entities GeoPath[pts] cartographic path supporting geo entities GeoVisibleRegion[pt] visible area from an elevated point GeoVisibleRegionBoundary[pt] horizon from an elevated point DayHemisphere[date] half of Earth illuminated by the Sun at a given time NightHemisphere[date] half of Earth not illuminated by the Sun at a given time DayNightTerminator[date] closed path separating the day and night hemispheres - DynamicGeoGraphics uses the same directives as Graphics, with the following addition:
-
GeoStyling[mapstyle] display faces of filled geo objects using mapstyle - DynamicGeoGraphics has the same options as Graphics, with the following additions and changes:
-
GeoBackground Automatic style specifications for the background GeoCenter Automatic center coordinates to use GeoGridLines None geographic grid lines to draw GeoGridLinesStyle Automatic style specifications for geographic grid lines GeoGridRange All projected coordinate range to include GeoGridRangePadding Automatic how much to pad the projected range GeoModel Automatic model of the Earth (or other body) to use GeoProjection Automatic projection to use GeoRange Automatic geographic area range to include GeoRangePadding Automatic how much to pad the geographic range GeoResolution Automatic average distance between background pixels GeoScaleBar None scale bar to display GeoServer Automatic specification of a tile server GeoZoomLevel Automatic zoom to use for geographic background MetaInformation {} metainformation about the map RasterSize Automatic raster dimensions for the background data - GeoProjection allows only the settings "Mercator" and "Equirectangular" in DynamicGeoGraphics.
- Resizing the results of DynamicGeoGraphics[] changes the range of the map rather than the scale.
- Clicking on a geo graphic and selecting the Get Coordinates tool from the Graphics ▶ Drawing Tools allows coordinate information to be interactively read off.
