JSON Layout Generator

As part of Map Change team we receive requests for JSON map development. JSON maps layout will be differ from typical maps as the expected output is human readable text to store and transmit data objects consisting of attribute–value pairs and array data types.

The process of creating positional layout(DDF) manually for map will huge amount of time.

What is your industry? Non-Industry Specific
How will this idea be used?

I would like to propose the development of a utility which will generate DDF(Data definition file for map) based on the expected JSON output using Positional layout.

    This is truly an idea that I would push for 100% all of the way!

    A very much needed improvement to the sterling integrator mapping software.

    Tremendous time savings and elimination of confusion if an accommodation for JSON files is put into place.

    The world is moving to JSON!!! Let's keep up!

    Thanks,
