Have a list of all map layers that pull from a geo-events source #52

Closed jaycrossler closed 10 years ago

jaycrossler commented 10 years ago

When building maps, or picking which map layers to show, pull these from a geo-events source or other sources. Geo-events layers can be pulled from:

http://geo-events.org/api/v1/layer/?format=json&limit=100

And include WMS, ArcGIS, KML, GML, GeoJSON, and other formats.

This should allow pulling from multiple geo-events sources or other sources (could be a GeoServer or some other sets of layer providers).

I checked in a way to do this that seemed to fit in with what we had already. Essentially, on the Layers dialog I added an 'Import' menu item that will allow you to query geo-event source servers (configured in db table) and choose which ones to add to the Layers table. They would then be available to add to the maps

@stephenrjones -- is that the solution OR is there something further than needs to be done. I might be wrong, but I think there might be more to this.

Yeah, although this covers part of the solution, wouldn't say it's complete or even the best way to do this. Believe it just meets part of the functionality.
