Embeddable Maps – adding an embedded map with optional custom functionality

1. Getting Started

To begin embedding an interactive map in an existing page, follow these pages in their numbered order:

Notes:

• This topic assumes that there is a working Cadcorp SIS WebMap installation available to receive the embedded map scripts.
• The licence file (cadcorp.lservrc) must be valid for the development machine.
• If an exception occurs, it will be written to an error log. The error log is in App_Data\ErrorLog in the WebMap installation folder (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\)
• For the purposes of this exercise, it is assumed that WebMap is found at this location: http://localhost/SISWebMap9/

2. Setting up the Project
