    Recommended Maps API for SmartClient?

    Hi

    We are working on integrating a new map result view in our existing enterprise application.
    For this we have developed a simple proof-of-concept (POC) using Google Maps V3 API, along bindings provided by https://github.com/branflake2267/GWT-Maps-V3-Api. The POC integrates into our app, and seems to be working well so far.

    We need features like multiple markers, lines to be displayed . These overlay items should be interactive, allowing the user to click, hover on them. Ability to access data retrieved from query results. Allow user interaction event to fire new queries, and reload map with new data as required. This API currently uses GWT components, which we think might cause conflicts at some point of time.

    So my question is: since smartgwt itself doesn't have any inbuilt map support, do you have any recommended 3rd party map module which integrates well with smartgwt applications? We would like to avoid any issues further down the line when we have added more features to the map view, so it's better to be be clear from the beginning. Any suggestions about Map API which reportedly works well with Smartgwt in enterprise applications would be appreciated!


    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, we haven't done a deep dive into any of these particular ways of wrapping Google Maps in GWT, so we can't really offer useful advice here unless and until you hit issues.
