Hi there,

Greetings.
Iam a new user to openmap and need to figure out if my requirement is possible.
I need to develop an applet which will display the geographical map(say Political
map + ocean names + countries name) and over it display some objects whose
properties(say colour) would change. My problem is i have to support "zoom in"
for a selected area on the map. I want to know if i could do this with openmap?
I took deep look at the mailing archives and found that there is a package
"com.bbn.openmap.layers.link", from what i understand could be used to "transfer graphic
objects between a ClientLink and a Linkserver over socket" am i on the right track?
is it possible with these classes to reply back with the new geographical map for the
x/y co-ordinates area selected for zoom
. If so is it possible to make the Linkserver a servlet and transfer
the data over HTTP? Would be glad to get a help and detailed reply with information on using "Link"
package.

Thx
Rajesh.m
