Trouble Shooting Guide
In each JavaScript and HTML file will have comments in each file to guide developers
though College Map Webs code. If you are having trouble with implementing new code
or need a reference and or guide to expand upon try WRLD3D’s API guide and refences
for JavaScript.
If you would like to look at other examples of WRLD3D applications like College Maps
take a look at their GitHub page here
For QGIS the best guide to refer to is WRLD3D’s QGIS guide here they will show you
each step you need to take to preform indoor mapping specifically for WRLD3D’s API.
If you are building you own application based off College Maps or WRLD3D’s API you
must use your own API key. To obtain an API key go to WRLD3D’s Website and make
and account, go to their developer page and you will be granted an API Key.
When compiling College Maps on your local machine or any code that uses WRLD3D’s
API you must run a local server off your computer to host the program for the API to
properly load.
