[Geoserver-users] ride.trimet.org - how do they do it?

Hi,
I am trying to get a good wrapper for my maps. I am using Mapserver on Mac OS X Server 10.5.
I looked at ride.trimet.org and it looks really good. Does anyone know where I can find out how they put together their solution?

I'm not sure if any of the OpenGeo developers who worked on that project are listening to this thread, but many of the widgets that went into that site (based on Ext) have been rolled into a project called GeoExt. Check out www.geoext.org (or more specifically [1]) for how to get involved.

Hi Asle,

If you click the "Powered by OpenGeo" link in the bottem right hand corner you will see some information about how the application has been composed.

Along the way Trimet was responsible for funding some major GeoServer and OpenLayers improvements. For instance support for curved labels.

Check it out, feel free to ask any more questions here.

Hi Asle,

In addition to what Justin & Mike have said above, I'll add that the web app
relies primarily on OpenLayers & Extjs for presentation, and
GeoServer/PostGIS/TileCache for rendering the map data. We got a lot of
help from Justin, Tim, Chris & Andrea (from OpenGeo) on both GeoServer &
OpenLayers. We didn't use GeoExt (wasn't around), and I was fairly new to
both Extjs & Javascript when I started, so I'm constantly refactoring the
older sections of code.

Here are some links that might help describe things a bit more...
* High Level Architecture:
http://maps.trimet.org/images/map/misc/Map%20Architecture.png
* Non minimized js code for the map: http://maps.trimet.org/maps/map.html
* The data for the map comes from Metro/RLIS
(http://www.oregonmetro.gov/index.cfm/go/by.web/id=593), as well as our
transit data http://developer.trimet.org/GTFS.shtml.

Take care,
Frank
