We are pleased to announce the release of version 5.3 of the MapQuest Platform! This update focuses on enhancements to our 3 client-side APIs: JavaScript, AS3, and FUJAX.
Some of the big changes include:
- Collections: Support for multiple and remote collections (KML and GeoRSS); easier handling of shape collections
- Custom Tile Layer support
- Add real-time traffic to your map
- Globe view enhancements
- All 3rd party JavaScript libraries removed (decreases JS footprint)
For the server-side APIs, .NET works with 2.0 and 3.5 on 32 and 64-bit; C++ now has been upgraded to support Visual Studio 2008 and 32 and 64-bit libraries are available.
