Blazor Binding Geographic Data Models

    The Ignite UI for Blazor map component is designed to display geo-spatial data from shape files and/or geographic locations from data models on geographic imagery maps. The DataSource property of geographic series is used for the purpose of binding to data models. This property can be bound an array of custom objects.

    The following table summarized data structures required for each type of geographic series:

    Geographic Series Properties Description
    IgbGeographicSymbolSeries LongitudeMemberPath, LatitudeMemberPath Specifies names of 2 numeric longitude and latitude coordinates
    IgbGeographicHighDensityScatterSeries LongitudeMemberPath, LatitudeMemberPath Specifies names of 2 numeric longitude and latitude coordinates
    IgbGeographicProportionalSymbolSeries LongitudeMemberPath, LatitudeMemberPath, RadiusMemberPath Specifies names of 2 numeric longitude and latitude coordinates and 1 numeric column for size/radius of symbols
    IgbGeographicScatterAreaSeries LongitudeMemberPath, LatitudeMemberPath, ColorMemberPath Specifies names of 2 numeric longitude and latitude coordinates and 1 numeric column for triangulation of values
    IgbGeographicContourLineSeries LongitudeMemberPath, LatitudeMemberPath, ValueMemberPath Specifies names of 2 numeric longitude and latitude coordinates and 1 numeric column for triangulation of values
    IgbGeographicShapeSeries ShapeMemberPath Specifies the name of data column of DataSource items that contains the geographic points of shapes. This property must be mapped to an array of arrays of objects with x and y properties.
    IgbGeographicPolylineSeries ShapeMemberPath Specifies the name of data column of DataSource items that contains the geographic coordinates of lines. This property must be mapped to an array of arrays of objects with x and y properties.

    Code Snippet

    The following code shows how to bind the IgbGeographicSymbolSeries to a custom data model that contains geographic locations of some cities of the world stored using longitude and latitude coordinates. Also, we use the IgbGeographicPolylineSeries to plot shortest geographic path between these locations using the WorldUtility
