GemeenteKaart

Deze documentatie in het Nederlands.

PHP library to create choropleth maps of the municipalities of the Netherlands (default: borders as of 2007, 443 municipalities). Areas can be assigned colors, typically to denote the relative frequency of some phenomenon.

Additional available data: the municipalities of Flanders (308 municipalities), the forty COROP regions of the Netherlands, the twelve provinces of the Netherlands, or the twenty-eight dialect areas of Daan/Blok (1969) mapped on municipality borders.

New in version 1.1

The historical municipality and province borders from the data set NLGis shapefiles by Dr. O.W.A. Boonstra are incorporated in the project. Borders from 1812-1997 are available and can be used via an optional year parameter. Note that no year parameter results in the borders from 2007 from version 1.0. Maps created from the NLGis data set use Amsterdam codes for municipalities (see Van der Meer & Boonstra 2011) while the version 1.0 maps use CBS codes.

Output formats are: SVG (default), PNG, GIF, JPEG, KML, GeoJSON.

Basic usage

To color the municipality areas of Amsterdam and Rotterdam from 2007 with red and green, respectively, and create an SVG image:

$municipalities = array('g_0363' => '#FF0000', 'g_0599' => '#00FF00');

$kaart = new Kaart('municipalities');
$kaart->addData($municipalities);
$kaart->show('svg');

The code numbers for the municipalities are the official Dutch municipality codes, available at www.cbs.nl, prefixed by g_ so that they can be used as values of HTML or XMD id attributes. Possible codes can be requested by calling the getPossibleMunicipalities() method on a Kaart object created without a year parameter.

To color the areas from 1821 of what are today the four "big cities" of the Randstad area:

$municipalities = array("a_11150" => "#990000", a_10345" => "#990000", "a_11434" => "#990000", "a_10722": "#990000");

$kaart = new Kaart('municipalities', 1821);
$kaart->addData($municipalities);
$kaart->show('svg');

The code numbers are Amsterdam codes from Van der Meer & Boonstra 2011, prefixed by a_ so that they can be used as values of HTML or XMD id attributes. Possible codes for a particular year can be requested by calling the getPossibleMunicipalities() method on a Kaart object created with a year parameter.

API

`__construct(string $type = 'municipalities', integer $year = NULL)`

Default map type is municipalities. Possible map types are: 'municipalities', 'gemeentes', 'corop','provincies', 'provinces', 'municipalities_nl_flanders', 'municipalities_flanders', 'dialectareas'. municipalities is a synonym for gemeentes. provincies is a synonym for provinces. When $year is omitted, the default map for version 1.0 is used, which means the municipality borders of 2007. Use Kaart::getAllowedYears(string $maptype) to find the available years for the given map type.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart(); // equals new Kaart('municipalities');
$kaart = new Kaart('provinces');
$kaart = new Kaart('gemeentes', 1921);

`setPathsFile(string $paths_file)`

Path files are geoJSON files (specification 2008) containing coordinates and names for the features of the map. See the contents of the coords directory for examples. Note that the coordinate system should be EPSG:28992. Only needed if the default paths file for the given map type does not suffice. Warning: file should not be user-submitted as it is used as-is.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$kaart->setPathsFile($alternative_paths_file);

`setAdditionalPathsFiles(array $paths_files )`

Adds more layers on top of the base map. Typical use case: combining different choropleth types in one map, e.g. municipalities as the base with borders of larger areas drawn on top of them. Restricted to files in the coords directory.

Examples

// adding dialect areas to map of municipalities
$kaart = new Kaart('gemeentes');
$kaart->setAdditionalPathsFiles(array('dialectareas.json'));

`setIniFile(string $ini_file)`

If alternative styling for features of the map is needed. Can be from the ini directory (no full path needed) or from elsewhere. See the ini directory for examples. Warning: file should not be user-submitted as it is used as-is.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart('gemeentes');
$kaart->setAdditionalPathsFiles(array('municipalities_flanders.json', 'border_nl_be.json'));
$kaart->setIniFile('municipalities_nl_flanders.ini');

`setData(array $data)`

$data should be an array containing areas to be highlighted. Area codes are keys, colors are values. See the geoJSON files in the coords directory for area codes or call getPossibleAreas() on a Kaart object. Colors can be either HTML color names, #RRGGBB hex strings, or AABBGGRR hex strings. The AA (opacity) part only has an effect on KML maps.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$data = array('g_0534' => '#FFC513');
$kaart->setData($data);

$kaart = new Kaart('gemeentes', 1950);
$kaart->setData(array("a_11150" => "#990000"); // note the Amsterdam code instead of the CBS code

`setTitle(string $title)`

Sets the title of the map. Is shown in-picture, above the map.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart('corop');
$kaart->setTitle('The 40 COROP areas');

`setInteractive(bool $value = true)`

Adds JavaScript or title attributes to show area names when hovering. In SVG maps embedded in the map itself and shown using Javascript. A list of <area> tags with title attributes is used to achieve the same effect in bitmap maps. Request this with the getImagemap() method after calling setInteractive().

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart('provincies');
$kaart->setInteractive();

`setPixelWidth(int $width)`

Sets the width of the map in pixels. If not used, width is the default value, defined in the .ini file for the current map type. Default height is defined in the .ini file as a factor. For the default map showing the Netherlands height is e.g. 1.1 times the width.

Examples

// set a picture width of 500 pixels
$kaart = new Kaart();
$kaart->setPixelWidth(500);

`setPixelHeight(int $height)`

Sets the height of the map in pixels. If you don't want the default height from the .ini file (for the default map of the Netherlands height is e.g. 1.1 times the width), you can overrule it with an absolute value using this method. You probably shouldn't, though. Note that this method should always be called after setPixelWidth().

Examples

// create a square 500 * 500 map
$kaart = new Kaart();
$kaart->setPixelWidth(500);
$kaart->setPixelHeight(500);

`setLink(string $link, mixed $target = NULL)`

Adds the same link to all areas. %s placeholder will be replaced with the area code. For bitmap maps the links are in <area> elements, which can be obtained by calling the getImagemap() method, for other (textual) formats the links are embedded in the map. The optional parameter $target can be used to create e.g. target="_blank" attributes for the links.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$kaart->setLink('https://www.example.com/?code=%s');
// now all areas have a link

`setLinkHighlighted(string $link, mixed $target = NULL)`

Adds the same link to all highlighted areas. %s placeholder will be replaced with the area code. For bitmap maps the links are in <area> elements, which can be obtained by calling the getImagemap() method, for other (textual) formats the links are embedded in the map. The optional parameter $target can be used to create e.g. target="_blank" attributes for the links.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$kaart->setData(array('g_0363' => '#FFC513'));
$kaart->setLinkHighlighted('http://www.example.com/?code=%s');
// now only area g_0363 (Amsterdam) has a link
// http://www.example.com/?code=g_0363

`setLinks(array $data, mixed $target = NULL)`

Adds links to areas (potentially a different link for each area). $data should be an array with area codes as keys and links as values.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$links = array(
    'g_0003' => 'http://www.example.com/some-path/',
    'g_0363' => 'http://www.example.net/another-path/'
    );
$kaart->setLinks($links, '_blank');

`setToolTips(array $data)`

Adds tooltips to areas. These become 'title' attributes in HTML <area> elements or SVG <path> elements, <description> elements in KML, and 'name' properties in GeoJSON. $data should be an array with area codes as keys and strings as values. Note that if $kaart->setInteractive() was set to TRUE previously, the tooltips overwrite the default area names for the given areas.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$tooltips = array(
    'g_0003' => 'Some text',
    'g_0363' => 'Another informative text'
    );
$kaart->setLinks($tooltips);

`setJavaScript(array $data, string $event = 'onclick')`

Adds JavaScript code to areas. Possible values of the $event parameter: onclick, onmouseover, onmouseout. Note (SVG maps only): if $kaart->setInteractive() was set to TRUE previously, any onmouseover or onmouseout events added with this method overwrite the default onmouseover and onmouseout events. $data should be an array with area codes as keys and Javascript code as values.

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$kaart->setJavaScript(array('g_0003' => "alert('g_0003');"));

`array getData()`

Returns the current associative array with map data (highlighted areas).

Examples

$kaart = new Kaart();
$kaart->setData(array('g_0534' => '#FFC513'));
$data = $kaart->getData();
print_r($data);
// Array
// (
//     [g_0534] => #FFC513
// )

`int getPixelWidth()`

Returns the width of the map in pixels.

`int getPixelHeight()`

Returns the height of the map in pixels.

`string getTitle()`

Returns the title of the map. Empty string if no title has been set.

`string | boolean getImagemap()`

For bitmap maps only: returns a string of <area> elements for features of the map, for use in a <map> HTML element. Can only be called after generating a map with the show(), fetch() or saveAsFile() method! Returns FALSE if no bitmap has been generated.

`array getPossibleAreas()`

Returns an associative array (area codes as keys, area names as values) for the current map object.

`array getPossibleMunicipalities()`

Synonym for getPossibleAreas() on a map object of type 'municipalities'/'gemeentes'.

`void show(string $format = 'svg')`

Hands the map over to a web browser for further handling. Depending on the capabilities and settings of the browser, the map will be shown on a page, handed to another application, or downloaded. Possible formats are: 'svg', 'png', 'gif','jpeg', 'jpg', 'kml', 'json'.

`string|blob fetch(string $format = 'svg')`

Returns the map as a string (SVG, JSON, KML) or binary blob (bitmap image). See show() for possible formats.

`bool saveAsFile(string $filename, string $format = 'svg')`

Saves the map as a file. See show() for possible formats. Returns TRUE if succeeded, FALSE if failed.

`array Kaart::getAllowedMaptypes()`

Returns an array of possible map types to be used in the constructor.

Examples

$types = Kaart::getAllowedMaptypes();
print_r($types);
// Array
// (
//    [0] => municipalities
//    [1] => gemeentes
//    [2] => corop
//    [3] => provincies
//    [4] => provinces
//    [5] => municipalities_nl_flanders
//    [6] => municipalities_flanders
//    [7] => dialectareas
// )

`array Kaart::getAllowedFormats()`

Returns an array of possible map formats to be used in show(), fetch() or saveAsFile() calls.

Examples

$formats = Kaart::getAllowedFormats();
print_r($formats);
// Array
// (
//     [0] => gif
//     [1] => png
//     [2] => jpg
//     [3] => jpeg
//     [4] => svg
//     [5] => kml
//     [6] => json
// )

`array Kaart::getAllowedYears(string $maptype)`

Returns an array of possible years to be used in the constructor for the given maptype.

Examples

$years = Kaart::getAllowedYears('provinces');
print_r($years);
// Array
// (
//    [0] => 1830
//    [1] => 1860
//    [2] => 1890
//    [3] => 1920
//    [4] => 1940
//    [5] => 1950
//    [6] => 1980
// )
