This is a web-based assisted transit map generator using JSON and SVG. It allows the end user to fill in JSON fields in order to generate SVG using the JavaScript mapgen.js file.

To use this, go to the live application. The JSON that specifies how the map should be generated is on the right, while the live map (512x512) is on the left. Smaller monitors may find that the text area moves below the map.

This application will not work well on mobile, nor is it intended for use on mobile. If you desire to use this program on mobile, feel free to punish yourself at your own disgression.

For standard use, all that needs to be done is to specify the height and width, the font and font size for station labels, and the various components of the map. Station icons are handled as either circles or squares - further customization may be possible in the future. Standard SVG fields apply here - stroke, stroke-width, etc.

Lines are broken down into their component paths - straight lines and arcs. Custom strings may be possible in the future for curves that do not fit the default model.

Stations are placed using the station types declared in the JSON input. Labels are placed at an offset from the location of the station's center. In the future, it may be possible to have multi-line labels without the need for duplicating stations and specifying seperate offsets, using top-down text, and text placed at various angles.
