Label-Web
is a high-quality text placement engine that labels web-based maps on the fly in
a GeoMedia WebMap (5.2 or higher) environment.

Web maps need to be re-labeled quickly each time the user pans or zooms, and at
the same time, need to provide aesthetic and informative cartographic output.
Label-Web places text in accordance with cartographic rules and
conventions, avoids text-to-text and text-to-feature overlap (unless expressly
allowed), and ensures unambiguous text-to-feature association. Most importantly,
it achieves aesthetic, high-quality label placement so as to enhance rapid
visual comprehension, while maintaining high performance suitable for
interactive display over the Internet.
Label-Web can be easily integrated into a server-side script by adding a
few lines of code to include the Label-Web application and initiate the text
placement. The end result is always an aesthetically labeled high-quality map.
