Maptime: Leaflet.js, An Introduction

Huzzah! You asked, we arranged. On Oct 14th MaptimeNOLA will take it’s first look at Leaflet, an open-source JavaScript library for mobile-friendly interactive maps.

I’m very pleased to have Darin Acosta joining us to share some of his experience in developing the New Orleans Short Term Rental Report. We’ll get to see the process of how the data flows from Airbnb and HomeAway and onto the front-end map interface with Leaflet.

He’ll also share a little bit about a project he’s been working on German Coast that explores Leaflet as a story telling device with dynamic map events. He’s done some great work. Check out his portfolio to see what he can do (so we can ask him more questions!!)

As always, we’ll continue our show & tell of interesting projects and blogs. If you have any links you’d like to share send them to maptimenola@gmail.com or tweet them at @maptimenola (or remember them).

See you soon! Pizza @ 6, tutorial @ 7.

P.S. we’re looking for more skill-share presenters! If you’ve got some map-related skills you’re excited to share let us know and we can get ya up on the calendar.
