DynamicObjects Sample
This sample application, using C# and WPF, simulates a number of moving application objects, and displays them on top of a map. The simulation is run on a background thread, while the view is updated continuously using the update timer of the MapControl.
The objects are represented as regular features in a MemoryDataSet. But as the features are moved, they also leave a trail: each previous position is shown as a small dot, implemented as a plot in a PlotLayer. The plots are "aged" and fades away after a few seconds. Individual objects can be selected by clicking on their trail.
Note that the number of objects in the example is not that large, and could be increased significantly before the application starts showing any performance problems. With the current number of objects, the CPU load should be low.
