Summary
In this chapter, you looked at the Atlas libraries for mapping and how you can use them to build your own mapping applications. You looked at how to create and invoke an Atlas map on a page and how you can set its location using latitude and longitude. You looked at how to zoom in and out of a page programmatically and how to use its object model to move the map pane from place to place. Finally, you learned how to annotate the map using the built-in pushpin technology.
With all this in your toolbox, you can now start building your own mapping applications.
