What free cards to use with the Deck.gl library?
Hi all!
I need to draw thousands of animated lines on a map using shaders. I found the Deckgl library (allows you to draw shaders with layers on top of maps), which has integration with several libraries that allow you to draw maps (google maps, mapbox, carto, leaflet, arcgis).
Tried leaflet, mapbox and arcgis.
Most of all I liked working with Arcgis, since everything is set up very quickly and works the same way, I drew about 1500 arches. But with arcgis I have a problem, it is impossible to set a fixed width and height of the screen. More precisely, it is possible, but it remains possible to move away with the help of the zoom so much that there remains a small square in which the map is visible, and this square can also be taken out of the screen area.
I still don't understand how to solve this problem. If it can be somehow controlled, then my main problem will be solved.
This is what the ArcGis map looks like when zoomed out:
Leaflet didn't like how shaders are redrawn with every movement (zoom, move). Everything is very twitchy, like a static picture. In ArcGis, the same layers (ArcLayer) look much better.
I have not found a complete solution to this problem.
Mapbox and carto require a token, it turns out they become paid at a certain load (plus carto is now blocked in Russia due to current events).
So here's the big question: are there any other cards like carto or mapbox that are free to use with either deckgl, or is there a solution to the map zoom issue in ArcGis?
