Hi
Would you know of a shapefile for the UK and of a sample application to show how to utilise it? This sounds as if it should work http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/products/strategi/ but I cannot see how the supplied files would be used to load a simple map?
Kind regards
Rob

I am a bit confused as they supply a .shp file but, whenever I try to utilise it I am just displayed a blue screen as the map?
I've also looked at http://help.infragistics.com/NetAdvantage/DV/2010.2/CLR4.0/?page=xamWebMap_Add_Open_Street_Maps_as_Geo-Imagery_Data_Source.html to utlise existing maps but cannot see how to set the location to be displayed from the example code - it shows me the whole world whilst just the UK is displayed in this example.
Kind regads
Hi Rob
Try the following code, which uses admin_polyline shapefile:
<Maps:XamMap x:Name="xamMap" > <Maps:MapNavigationPane igControls:XamDock.Edge="InsideRight" /> <Maps:XamMap.Layers> <Maps:MapLayer > <Maps:MapLayer.Reader> <Maps:ShapeFileReader Uri="ShapeFiles/OsOpenData/admin_polyline" >
<Maps:ShapeFileReader.CoordinateSystem> <Maps:CoordinateSystem> <Maps:CoordinateSystem.Projection> <Maps:TransverseMercator EllipsoidType="WGS84" /> </Maps:CoordinateSystem.Projection> </Maps:CoordinateSystem> </Maps:ShapeFileReader.CoordinateSystem> </Maps:ShapeFileReader> </Maps:MapLayer.Reader> </Maps:MapLayer> </Maps:XamMap.Layers></Maps:XamMap>

For the european_region_region from their "Boundary-Line" try the following:
<Maps:XamMap x:Name="xamMap" > <Maps:MapNavigationPane igControls:XamDock.Edge="InsideRight" /> <Maps:XamMap.Layers> <Maps:MapLayer > <Maps:MapLayer.Reader> <Maps:ShapeFileReader Uri="ShapeFiles/OsOpenData/european_region_region" >
<Maps:ShapeFileReader.CoordinateSystem> <Maps:CoordinateSystem FalseEasting="400000" FalseNorthing="-100000" UnitType="M"> <Maps:CoordinateSystem.Projection> <Maps:TransverseMercator EllipsoidType="Airy" CentralMeridian="-2" LatitudeOrigin="49" ScaleFactor="0.999601272" /> </Maps:CoordinateSystem.Projection> </Maps:CoordinateSystem> </Maps:ShapeFileReader.CoordinateSystem> </Maps:ShapeFileReader> </Maps:MapLayer.Reader> </Maps:MapLayer> </Maps:XamMap.Layers></Maps:XamMap>
