Utilising the globe control

Including MariaGlobeMapControl

Create a WPF Application, and add the necessary NuGet references. For details, see Maria Basic Map Client.

Add the MariaGlobeMapControl to the Main window xaml.

<Window x:Class="MariaGlobeClient.MainWindow"
        . . .
        Title="MariaGlobeClient" Height="600" Width="600">
    <Grid>
        <MariaGlobeMapControl x:Name="MariaGlobeCtrl" Background="#E9ECFA"                                                  
                              Is3DMode="False"
                              MouseMoveDistanceToStartTracking="0"
                              ZoomOnDblClick="False"
                              DegreeToLockRotateAndScale="2"
                              PercentageToLockScaleOnly="2.0"
                              IsProgressIndicatorVisible="False" />
    </Grid>
</Window>

Add main view models

• Add a view model class (MainViewModel) for communication with the Maria component, and another (MapViewModel) for map handling. Both including inheritance from ViewModelBase, for details see Prepare your application for interactions.

• Set the data context of your client window to the MainViewModel, and implement an event handler for the WindowClosing event. For details see Maria Basic Map Client.

Add and initialise the following to the MainViewModel

• • Layers property
  • MapViewModel property

• • _mapLayerManager field
  • _mapLayer field
  • _miniMapLayer field
