Forestry Web Map

We have recently completed a web-based mapping application for a forestry company. The solution allows the end-users to interact with their data and extract critical information related to the forestry compartments. They also have the ability to create and print Pdf maps.

Mapexchange API

QuarteX technologies hosts our own implementation of MAPexchange, our web mapping service (WMS), and provides access to developers through a fully featured application programming interface (API). The MAPexchange API is a toolbox which developers may use in conjunction with the MAPexchange WMS to create their own map enabled application. The currently available tools are:

  • Standard interactive mapping tools for:
    • Display map
    • Display features on a map with popup identity box
    • Zooming in and out
    • Panning
    • Measuring distances
    • Drawing points, lines and polygons
  • Custom tools for
    • Routing
    • Street and feature searches
    • Geocoding and reverse geocoding
    • Locating nearest feature

The set of tools is evolving, and will be updated periodically. For more information on how you may use the API, please contact us.
