Introduction OpenLayers 3
OpenLayers brings geospatial data to any
modern desktop or mobile web browser. ol3 is
a complete rewrite, featuring WebGL and 3D.
Like OpenLayers 2, it supports a huge variety
of data formats and layer types. But unlike
OpenLayers 2, it is built from scratch relying
on latest browser technologies like HTML5,
WebGL and CSS3.
