  • Publication number: 20070294642
    Abstract: A graphical user interface for graphically managing the navigational usability of an interactive map is described. In one embodiment, the graphical user interface includes a layer hierarchy having a first layer and a second layer. The graphical user interface also includes a first display range bar associated with the first layer and configured to show a range of map scales at which the first layer is displayed in the digitized map. In addition, the graphical user interface includes a second display range bar associated with the second layer and configured to show a range of map scales at which the second layer is displayed in the digitized map.

  • Publication number: 20050162425
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for dynamically displaying a projection sensitive path on a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional object. In one aspect, a path is dynamically displayed between at least two geographic locations. A two-dimensional representation of three-dimensional geographic data is displayed, and a user input is received specifying an initial location on the two-dimensional representation. Additional user input is received specifying a number of intermediate locations and terminating with a final location. While receiving the additional user input, either a great circle path or rhumb line is dynamically displayed extending from the initial location toward each of the intermediate locations and ultimately terminating at the final location.
