Downloading the Quick Start kit of MapViewer 10.1.2 is the easiest way to get started. This kit includes a standalone OC4J (Oracle Container for J2EE) pre-configured with the latest version of MapViewer and ready for action. The kit is available from from MapViewer’s OTN page at http://otn.oracle.com/products/mapviewer, under the Software section. This kit plus a Java SDK 1.4 or later installation is all you need to get going. Once you have installed the Quick Start kit, you should download the demo data set for 10.1.2, and load the data into your Oracle Spatial database. After loading the data, go to the MapViewer’s admin page and define a new data source named “mvdemo”. This will tell MapViewer where you have loaded the demo data set. Now go to MapViewer’s home page and try the cool demos listed there.
