Talkat DjangoCon US 2010 · on Tuesday, 2010-09-07· [web-platform, django]
speakerdeck:malcolmt

Covers using django.contrib.gis to model, manipulate and display maps that are fictional (game or sci‑fi) rather than real-world. Explains how to separate GIS modeling (data/schema, region intersections, nearby-point queries) from client-side display, and demonstrates plotting and interacting with features on an imaginary landscape using Django GIS and JavaScript. Code examples will be provided for getting these techniques working.
