map_overview - Overview of the packages in the Map module
Definitions of simple file formats to hold various geo/* resources, and the ability to read/write these files.
On-disk stores for various geo/* resources. Exist as basic examples to start with, and as API demonstrators. In the original project these packages were factored out of sqlite was used as a store. This store is however entwined too much with that project to be factored.
In-memory stores caching geo/* data and adding derived attributes. The bridge between the actual on-disk stores and the various widgets and behaviours.
To show maps, singular geo resources, and tables of many geo resources of the same kind.
Engines attachable to map::display to add custom behaviours to the shown map. The two classes of engines are for displaying overlays for specific geo resources, and the editing/entry of specific single geo resources.
