Video: Creating a database-driven, interactive Google Maps web application with Delphi Rio

Part 2 of the School Data Video Series shows you how to write a web application that offers an interactive Google Map with data that is taken from a database. In order to access the database it uses the REST web service that was built in part 1.

The video shows by giving easy to follow step-by-step instructions:

• Getting to know the data in the database
• Build REST queries in the web browser
• Implement a TMS Web Core application
  • Access the REST web service
  • Request data
  • Add markers to the Google Map component
  • Use a special, pre-defined icon for the marker

Here’s a little teaser what the app will look like in the end:
