[Aust-NZ] VicMap API JavaScript - who's the developer?

[Justin Madex]

Hi Noli,

Sorry for the delay, been flat out at work.

Vicmap API's was planned to be only used as a base layer on a map due to a few restrictions.
- that's the intention of DSE
- the tiles are not transparent
- Vicmap API only supports the predefined 14 zoom levels/scale

That said, you can still use it as a wms layer but you will need to use the projection EPSG:3111
See the following sample code:

		<script type="text/javascript">
		
		var map;
		var layer;
		var lon = 2439245.01855;
       var lat = 2526943.49665;

		function init()
		{
			var options = {
				projection : new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:3111"),
			};
			
           map = new OpenLayers.Map( 'map', options );

           var basemap = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS( "vicmapapi", "http://lctest.land.vic.gov.au/vicmapapi/map/wms",
           	{
           		layers: 'CARTOGRAPHICAL', 
					format: 'image/png', 
					transparent: 'off'
				},
               {
               	maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(1749210.30515, 2010475.79705, 3336713.48015, 3066694.57615), 
               	maxResolution: 'auto'
               } );

           map.addLayer(basemap);

           map.setCenter(new OpenLayers.LonLat(lon, lat));
           map.addControl( new OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher() );
		}
		
		</script>

I hope this helps. Give me a shout if you have any questions

- Justin
