Maps at Street Level

12 years ago • updated 12 years ago • 4

If I was wanting to pull maps up on a street level, say in a city, like Shreveport, LA, how would I with the demo code?




<wire>


   <datasource name="geo" source="http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/catalogs/eqs7day-M2.5.xml" query="//*[local-name()='item']" providertype="xml"/>



   <classes>


       <class name="annotations">


           <annotation name="office" location="[param:location]"


title="[param:title]" subtitle="[param:subtitle]" color="[param:color]" animatedrop="yes">


           </annotation>


       </class>


   </classes>


   <main>


       <panel name="test" width="100%" height="100%" >


         <map name="map" alias="MAP" width="100%" height="100%" datasource="geo" type="satelite">


           <object name="blah" class="annotations" location="[param:*[local-name()='lat']] [param:*[local-name()='long']]" title="[param:*[local-name()='title']]"


subtitle="[param:*[local-name()='description']]" color="green" lhs="[param:*[local-name()='lat']]" operator="!=" rhs="" />


         </map>


         <image name="button" width="10%" height="12%" source="search.png" onclickup="zoom"></image>


       </panel>


   </main>


   <actions>


     <action name="zoom">


       <assign property="object:MAP.showuser" value="yes" delay="2"/>


       <assign property="object:MAP.region" value="39.093606 -94.583316 39.093606 -94.583316"/>


       <annotate target="MAP" location="39.093606 -94.583316" title="RareWire"/>


     </action>


   </actions>


</wire>

Unfortunately with iOS 6 coming out next week and Apple dropping Google Maps, there will no longer be a "street view".

The best you can do is reassign your region as close together as you can so it zooms in a close as the maps allow.

I wondered what would happen when IOS 6 came out.

So would that be the coordinates in this variable?
<assign property="object:MAP.region" value="39.093606 -94.583316 39.093606 -94.583316"/>

yes, the region property is read and write, so you can start it in your map tag at a certain "level" and use assign to zoom it to a new coordinate.
