Introducing JViews Maps > How JViews Maps Can Help You > The Added Value of ILOG JViews Maps > Display of Complex Maps

JViews Maps can display complex maps with numerous overlaid entities due to:

There is a full spectrum of map display capabilities, including the most popular data format readers and writers, geodesic computations such as projections, ellipsoids, and datum, and hundreds of predefined coordinate systems. JViews Maps lets you load maps quickly and create and animate multilayered and multiscale maps with user-defined visual representations. This is achieved by styling properties such as colors or transparency.

Multithreaded components mean that lengthy operations happen in the background so that the application is never frozen waiting for a computation to end. Users can continue working on others tasks and see the results when they are ready. It also greatly helps to improve the perceived performance.
