[mapguide-users] MGOS Application Overlaying on GOOGLE

[Andy Morsell]

MapGuide Open Source 1.1.0 has the capability "out of the box".  There is no
documentation, but it's pretty straight-forward to utilize by issuing
operation requests directly against the mapagent.  To try it out, load up
the mapagent test page
(http://YOURSERVERNAME:PORT/mapguide/MapAgent/index.html).  Then, in the
upper-left pane click on Kml.  Then, go to the GetMapKml, GetLayerKml, or
GetFeaturesKml options.  Here's the results of issuing the default
operations from that interface:

There's also ways to do cool KML things via the MGOS and FDO API's, but
these are obiously more advanced.  For an example, see these pages:

Unfortunately I don't know anything about this.  Perhaps someone else will
jump in here?
