- Geolocation API
- Geospatial formats and standards
- Learn and Build a Complete OpenLayers Project
- And much much more!
OpenLayers is a powerful, community-driven, open-source, JavaScript-based web mapping library, which allows us to develop web mapping applications using a great number of geospatial data sources, data formats, and open geospatial standards such as from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC).
This course focuses on the latest version of the Openlayers 6, and is the most comprehensive and modern Openlayers course you can find in UDEMY. It starts with very basics and goes all the way to advanced concepts. Once we master all the Openlayers concepts, we build a complete Openlayers project in the last section.
By the end of this course, you can build amazing web mapping applications using Openlayers.
