Jaz: A Geographic Area Selection Applet

This is the development area for the NSIDC JazPanel. The JazPanel is a Java-based geographic area selection applet.

This version is mostly Java code with just a few javascript hooks to change configuration parameters and get at the information about the selected area. As such this version should be fairly browser independent.

The radio buttons and checkboxes at the bottom of the page switch some configuration parameters in the applet. They are there for demonstration purposes. (Most interfaces would just pick an appropriate configuration and not leave it up to the user to define).

What works and what doesn't:

WHAT (SHOULD) WORK

Pretty much everything. The map seems to stagger a bit at time and needs to be kicked (i.e. select a different map, resize the window, etc.) before it starts working properly.

WHAT DOESN'T WORK

It's not actually hooked in to anything, so you can't run a search. JAZ is just a piece of an interface.
