 +The ''Reference Map'' is the map on which you can get your bearings.  It shows you where ''Resources'' and ''Views'' are situated.  \\
 +The ''Viewer'' has an built-in reference map. \\
 +The ''Orbit 3dMapping Viewer SDK'' was created specifically to to enable any third-party viewer to be used as a reference map.

-A Signal can be best described as an event emitter. There is one Signal and it notifies change of MapObjects. +A Signal can be best described as an event emitter.  Signals are provided throughout the SDK to cover different use-cases where your integration will want to be notified of certain events.
- +
-How that works :  +
-  - The SDK dispatches a Signal +
-  - The SDK user retrieves MapObjects. +
-  - The SDK user renders MapObjects.+
  
-By combining Signals and MapObjects, we obtain a simple, no-maintenance implementation. The developer doesn't need to be occupied with what to render or when, the SDK will take care about that.+Signals in the SDK start with "on" by convention (for example "onFootprintsChanged").
