OpenLayers makes it easy to put a dynamic map in any web page. It can display map tiles and markers loaded from any source. MetaCarta developed the initial version of OpenLayers and gave it to the public to further the use of geographic information of all kinds. OpenLayers is completely free, Open Source JavaScript, released under the BSD License.

This is an example of how to integrate an iframe into any HTML page to include the MetaCarta service.

Mapbender can be used as a management back end for OpenLayers. A first prototype has benn implemented during the Mapbender Development Sprint at the FOSSGIS 2008 in Freiburg, Germany.
