Create labelLayer module #26

Closed northlandiguana closed 7 years ago

northlandiguana commented 8 years ago

Need a vector labeling engine for dataLayers. This should create SVG labels using D3 and position them centered within each polygon feature or upper-right of each point feature. Ideally, labels should avoid overlapping other labels, but this might be too much to deal with.

Implemented for Leaflet using L.SVG class.

Need option for placing dots for point labels.

Ensure label layer stays on top.

Labels not resetting when map resets.

Implemented a separate point technique type to make adding points for point labels optional. Implemented function to keep all data layers displayed in their original order. Label resetting was mostly user error.
