Interaction events
Unfolding enables you to rapidly create interactive maps. Basic interactions such as Zoom & Pan are included. Other functionality such as Overview+Detail, or multitouch gestures can be easily added.
Data visualization
Simply create geo-positioned markers to display data on a map. The visual style can be adapted freely. The library supports any user-defined shapes, such as points, lines, or polygons.
Styled maps
Unfolding is a tile-based map library. Map tiles can have various geographic features, and come in all kind of styles. It comes with various map providers, such as OpenStreetMap or TileMill.
