    • parseMapFile

      public static GisMapInterface parseMapFile(URL csvUrl, String mapName, CoordinateTransform coordinateTransform, char fieldSeparator, char quoteCharacter) throws IOException
      Parses a CSV file with information about the map and layers. FieldSeparateor can be, for instance \t for a tab character, and the quote character can be the double quote, the single quote, or something else.
      Parameters:
      csvUrl - URL; the url of the CSV file.
      mapName - String; the human readable name of the map
      coordinateTransform - CoordinateTransform; the transformation of (x, y) coordinates to (x', y') coordinates.
      fieldSeparator - char; field separator, e.g., comma for csv files and tab for tsv files
      quoteCharacter - char; e.g., single or double quote
      Returns:
      MapInterface the parsed map file.
      Throws:
      IOException - on failure reading the CSV file, the shape files, or making the layers
