GeoMap for Java v1.0 is a collection of Java classes, written in 1997, designed to display latitude and longitude coordinate data on an interactive canvas. This applet uses two input files specified as parameters in the html:

1. The tag file (TAGFILE) specifies at what display level the various features should be displayed, tags that associate features with a color or image, and a initial map setting that specifies what the bounds are for the map.
2. The data file (DATAFILE) specifies the various latitude and longitude coordinates to be associated with each object such as an island or a coastline.
