Unable to rotate kml layer - google-maps
I want to rotate the kml layer in my map but it is not rotating however kml file contains the rotation tag. Here is KML file.
KML File
I am using this code to include the kml file.
var myLatLng = {lat: -25.363, lng: 131.044};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 15,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE,
center: myLatLng
});
var ctaLayer = new google.maps.KmlLayer({
url: 'https://s3.amazonaws.com/navizon.its.fp/1001/zk01w7hhv4_o.kml',
map: map
});
<rotation/> is not supported in KmlLayer, see https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/kmlelementsinmaps for supported elements
One option would be the third party KML parser geoxml3 which now supports the <GroundOverlay> <rotation> tag (with a change to the helper ProjectedOverlay library). (Disclaimer: I am currently the maintainer).
example with your KML
code snippet:
function initMap() {
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), {
center: {
lat: 0,
lng: 0
},
zoom: 0
});
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({});
var geoXml = new geoXML3.parser({
map: map,
infoWindow: infowindow,
singleInfoWindow: true,
});
geoXml.parseKmlString(kmlData);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initMap);

How to check google map API is fully loaded or not using setimeout function?
First I checked without setTimeout function google map API is fully loaded or not using map idle function. it's working fine. but I tried using the setTimeout function in the google map loading page. the map is loaded successfully. but map idle function is not working on how to fix this issue.

How to achieve this scenario.
You can use the tilesloaded event of the Maps Javascript API Events. The tilesloaded is used to detect when the map has been fully loaded. A sample POC below using your current implementation.
var map;
function initMap() {
var myLatLng = {lat: -25.363, lng: 131.044};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 4,
center: myLatLng
});
map.addListener('tilesloaded', function() {
console.log('map is loaded');
});
google.maps.event.addListenerOnce(map, 'idle', function(){
console.log('map is idle')
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
title: 'Hello World!'
});
});
}
If this doesn't help you, you can also check the answer from this Stackoverflow question How can I check whether Google Maps is fully loaded?. It appears a lot of users were also experiencing this issue before.
Hope this information find you helpful and good luck on your applicaion!
Use titesloaded event to listen to complete map load.
How to Google Maps marker blink for time interval?
I am new at Google Maps technologies.I want to blink or bounce google maps marker for a time interval for example one minute.Is it possible to do it? Could you please show me a way to succeed it?
The google.maps.Marker class supports setAnimation(animation:Animation) method, which according to the docs:
Start an animation. Any ongoing animation will be cancelled. Currently
supported animations are: BOUNCE, DROP. Passing in null will cause any
animation to stop.
So you can just call
marker.setAnimation(google.maps.Animation.BOUNCE);
to start bouncing animation and
marker.setAnimation(null);
to stop it. Working example:
function initMap() {
var myLatLng = {lat: -25.363, lng: 131.044};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 4,
center: myLatLng
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
title: 'Hello World!'
});
marker.setAnimation(google.maps.Animation.BOUNCE);
}
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load("maps", "3",{other_params:"sensor=false"});
</script>
<body onload="initMap();" style="margin:0px; padding:0px;" >
<div id="map" style="height:400px; width:500px;"></div>
</body>
Blinking animation is not supported out of the box, but you can create it yourself, the example is already included in other answers.
may cause errors. (using googlemap without apikey)
var on = true;
var intervalSeconds = 0.5;
var myLatLng = {lat: -25.363, lng: 131.044};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 4,
center: myLatLng
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
title: 'Hello World!'
});
setInterval(function() {
if(on) {
marker.setMap(null);
} else {
marker.setMap(map);
}
on = !on;
}, intervalSeconds * 1000);
#map {
width: 800px;
height: 600px;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<div id="map"></div>
I suggest for blinking maps marker you can use .gif file since google maps marker does not support blinking animation.
Just change the source of your image to .gif file and it will work.
for example.
var mapIcon= "/assets/mapIcon.gif");
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latLng,
map: map,
icon: mapIcon,
optimized: false
});
[NOTE] Don't forget to add optimized: false because sometimes it will not work properly.
How do I add a pin to my Google Map from Google Developers Tutorial
I have been using the Google Developers Tutorial on how to add a map to my website: https://developers.google.com/maps/tutorials/fundamentals/adding-a-google-map#the_finished_code I cannot seem to find a way to add a pin to the map, I have used the "centre" function so that the map is centred on the lat and long of the pin, but the pin itself is not visible. Any way to create a pin at that lat and long?
Just need to instantiate a marker Object and place it at the coordinates:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
#map {
width: 500px;
height: 400px;
}
</style>
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js"></script>
<script>
function initialize() {
var mapCanvas = document.getElementById('map');
var myLatLng = {lat: 44.5403, lng: -78.5463};
var mapOptions = {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(myLatLng),
zoom: 8,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(mapCanvas, mapOptions)
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
title: 'Hello World!'
});
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="map"></div>
</body>
</html>
Fiddle
Try the following: replace center with location before: center: new google.maps.LatLng(myLatLng), after: location: new google.maps.LatLng(myLatLng), That should do the trick (should add the Pin automatically).
Google Maps API - Display/Add custom location (marker)
I want to display a custom location with an icon and a label on the Google map in my web site.
In the head section Insert the following JS library and the coding. Change LatLng to match your exact location.
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp&sensor=false"></script>
<script>
function initialize() {
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(7.316306, 80.622160);
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 14,
center: myLatlng
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
title: 'My new location is this :P'
});
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
</script>
And in the body section insert this div where you want the map to be displayed.
<div id="map-canvas" width="350" height="271"></div>
Google Maps API V3 Marker Not Loading
I am trying to get a marker to show on the google map for a website I am doing. Without the marker code the map loads fine and shows the correct location (with no marker), when I add the marker code the map no longer loads. Clearly I am missing something simple but I am not too familiar with Jquery.

Thanks for any assistance.
The map-property is expected to be a google.maps.Map-instance and the position-property has to be a google.maps.LatLng:
Furthermore you must create the marker when the map already has been created and in a scope where the maps-instance is accessible, e.g. at the end of initialize().
function initialize() {
var mapOptions = {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(53.154662, -1.208357),
zoom: 15,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map-canvas"),
mapOptions);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position:new google.maps.LatLng(53.154662, -1.208357),
map: map,
title:"Hello World!"
});
}
