Make the most of <b>Maps for WPF and Silverlight</b> by taking advantage of the following key features:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Draw any Geometry<br></strong>C1Maps' vector layer allows you to draw geometries/shapes/polygons/paths with geo coordinates on top of the map. The vector layer is useful to draw:</li> </ul> <div style="MARGIN-LEFT: 2em"> <ul> <li>Political borders (such as countries or states)</li> <li>Geo details (for example, showing automobiles or airplane routes)</li> <li>Choropleth maps (based on statistical data, such as showing population per country)</li> </ul> </div> <blockquote style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px" dir="ltr"> <p>You can use the vector layer instead of the regular Microsoft Virtual Earth source to show a world map representation.<a title="Draw any Geometry" href="http://www.componentone.com/newimages/Products/Screenshots/StudioSilverlight/C1MapsVectorAsChart.png" target="_blank">http://www.componentone.com/newimages/Products/Screenshots/StudioSilverlight/C1MapsVectorAsChart.png</a> </p> </blockquote> <ul> <li><strong>KML Support<br></strong>The vector layer supports basic KML import/export (KML is the standard file format to exchange drawings on top of maps). For more information, see KML Import/Export.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Rich Geographical Information<br></strong>Display rich geographical information from various sources, including Bing Map or any custom source. For example, you can build your own source for Yahoo! Maps.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><b>Display a Large Number of Elements on the Map<br></b><b>Maps for</b> <strong>WPF and Silverlight</strong> allows virtualization of local and server data. Using its virtual layer Maps only displays and requests the elements currently visible.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Zoom, Pan, and Map Coordinates<br></strong><b>Maps for WPF and Silverlight</b> supports zooming and panning using the mouse or the keyboard. It also supports mapping between screen and geographical coordinates.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><b>Layers Support<br></b>Use layers to add your own custom elements to the maps. Elements are linked to geographical locations. For more information, see <a href="Vector_Layer.html">Vector Layer</a>, <a href="Virtualization.html">Virtualization</a>, and <a href="Items_Layering.html">Items Layering</a>.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Silverlight Toolkit Themes Support<br></strong>Add style to your UI with built-in support for the most popular Microsoft Silverlight Toolkit themes, including ExpressionDark, ExpressionLight, WhistlerBlue, RainierOrange, ShinyBlue, and BureauBlack.
