Using Mapguide selection with OpenLayers
Mapguide is a great solution for building web applications: it has the best administrative interface of all open-source (and some commercial) web servers, it is
very fast with vector data, it integrates nicely with AutoCAD Map 3D, ...
Even though I am
very satisfied with the basic viewer, it does not play well on mobile devices. Creating a viewer using OpenLayers seems the way to go, and it is in fact the library used by
the fusion viewer and AutoDesk's own mobile viewer.
Since I wanted my
mobile viewer integrated with an existing application, I prefered rolling my
own viewer based on OpenLayers: for integration with the rest of an existing
webapplication I prefer a simple viewer rather than having all the bells and whistles of the fusion viewer.
