Hello, World!

So, after more than three years this account is now back online posting about its development progress among other things.

#Mapton is powered by #java, #javafx & the #netbeans platform among other great open source projects.

As a #weekend project I made an #earthquake module for #mapton with data feed from #usgs.

The image shows recent #quakes, but you can pretty much filter on any attribute.

Colors indicates age in days, circle and lines the #magnitude.

Some work remains but more one that some other time..

Let's start this brand new year with a brand new version of #Mapton, some kind of map application, built with #java & #javafx on the #netbeans platform.

So, here is Mapton 26.01

#AppImage and #snap for #linux is also available.

A while back I created a layer displaying current date and time for use in screenshots/reports.

Today I made it configurable.

The pattern is parsed with #java DateTimeFormatter. docs.oracle.com/en/java/java...

And as it turned out, #mapton or should I say #java, is very capable of handling millions and millions of data rows as #pojo managed by streams and filters. :)

Being a modular application, the core does not know about the modules using the provided database.

Now we don't have to handle db file format changes on h2 updates. H2 will still be available as an in-memory db though.

I just moved the #h2database out of the core api to a separate module and made the bookmark management use a plain #csv file instead of #sql.
