[OpenLayers-Users] Styling geoJSON with SLD (ie convert SLD to stylemap)

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hi,

take a look at the sld.html example (http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/sld.html). An untested snippet to create a vector layer with styles from your SLD could look like this:

var layerName = "myLayer"; // the NamedLayer from your SLD
OpenLayers.Request.GET({
    url: "tasmania/sld-tasmania.xml",
    success: function(req) {
        sld = format.read(req.responseText);
        var vector = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector(layerName, {
            styleMap: new OpenLayers.StyleMap(
                sld.namedLayers[layerName].userStyles[0];
            )
        });
        map.addLayer(vector);
    }
});

Andreas.
