Where does OL3 fit?

OpenLayers 2

OpenLayers 3

Designprinciples

SoC - 1/3(Separation of Concerns)

SoC - 2/3MapMap has a rendererMap has a viewMap has layersLayers have sources

SoC - 3/3Interactions vs Controls

Interactions respond to browser events on the mapControls have a presence in the DOM

High-PerformanceFor example:

Avoid boxing/unboxing operationsBe nice with the GC and reuse objectsUse rAF and watch the frame rateRedraw as few pixels as possibleUse Closure Compiler

No opinion on the UIUse CSSProvide objects for integration with other libs(ol.Overlay)

FeaturesVarious tile sources/providers: OSM, XYZ, Stamen,TileJSON, Bing Maps, WMTS, WMSControls: Attribution, Full-screen, Mouse position,Scaleline, Zoom, Zoom sliderVector layer: rule-based styling with powerfulexpression systemParsers: GeoJSON, GPX, KML, FE, GML, WMSCapabilities, WMTS CapabilitiesAnimationsGeolocation, Device orientation
