Displaying Data on a Map #5710
-
I'm using OpenMCT to present real-time flight data. What would be the current best practices exist to present this data on a 2D/3D map? Is there a recommended plugin? interface to external mapping solutions like Google Earth or Cesium etc. |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

Hi there. Right now there is no integration with mapping tools out of the box. We are working on an open source integration with JPL's MMGIS tool, so look out for that. It's based on leaflet. A few years ago we did an integration with Open Layers as well, which is publicly available on github. Because of the MMGIS integration we don't use this any more, so due to code rot it may not just work out of the box, but I think its still a pretty good guide for integrating Open MCT with a mapping tool. There is also an even older experiment with Cesium which bootstraps a cesium view within Open MCT but doesn't do much else. |
