This is the default widget used by all GeoDjango form fields.

``template_name`` is ``gis/openlayers.html``.
|

|

``OpenLayersWidget`` and :class:`OSMWidget` use the ``openlayers.js`` file
|
||||
hosted on the ``openlayers.org`` Web site. This works for basic usage
|
||||
during development, but isn't appropropriate for a production deployment as
|
||||
``openlayers.org/api/`` has no guaranteed uptime and runs on a slow server.
|
||||
You are therefore advised to subclass these widgets in order to specify
|
||||
your own version of the ``openlayers.js`` file in the ``js`` property of
|
||||
the inner ``Media`` class (see :ref:`assets-as-a-static-definition`). You
|
||||
can host a copy of ``openlayers.js``
|
||||
`tailored to your needs`_ on your own server or refer to a copy from a
|
||||
content-delivery network like http://cdnjs.com/. This will also allow
|
||||
you to serve the JavaScript file(s) using the ``https`` protocol if needed.
