unfolding map layout
Hello,
I just started to work with unfolding and I'm trying to create an own layout for a map. Through processing there is only the possibility to insert existing map layouts through certain providers but I want to build my own. I looked into tillmile and mapbox but couldn't figure out how to import the data into my unfolding processing sketch. Is it that complicated? I am a beginner so don't be too harsh on me please!
Answers
In TileMill you need to export your custom map as MBTiles, put that file into your sketch's data-folder, and load them for use with Unfolding.
See MBTilesApp in the examples of Unfolding. Note that you need to download another library (sqlitejdbc) before. See comment in the code.
Thank you, I will try that. But there's a little thing I don't understand. So I put the MBTiles-File into my data-folder. Can you tell me what code exactly to use in processing to load that file in my unfolding-processing sketch? And where I get that library and where to put it? Thank you, I'm a beginner...
I got it done by myself. Thank you for your answer! If you got a little time, could you answer a different question, regarding unfolding? I am trying to find a way to animate the markers I set onto my unfolding map. They should be throbbing on different points on the map. Is this possible through processing and if so, how can you do it?
That certainly is possible. You probably might want to read through some examples from Processing to find out how to do animation.
But if you want to check out a more complex example on using animated dots (here: expanding circles to visualize earthquakes) you can try to understand and port this example to Processing. (it uses another external library, though)
