I have some kind of android gps app that uses the Google Maps Android SDK.
I want to pull google map tiles from this link using UrlTileProvider -> http://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=y&hl=en&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}&s=Ga
I can do this and it works fine, but I want to know if this is a rule violation.
I realize that this will be a specific and pointless case for many of you, because the Maps SDK already provides the tiles in very high quality and for free.
But the problem is that Turkish users cannot see satellite images via Maps SDK (because it is blurred). In order to overcome this situation, I need to apply this solution to Turkish users.
Picture 1- Outside of Turkey with sdk
Picture 2- In Turkey with sdk
Picture 3- In Turkey with Google tile urls
Is there a way to connect Laser Distance Measurer with Chrome Bluetooth API. The Bosch devices such as GLM-family have andriod/ios SDK. Im kind of new to this and wondering if there is way to do that, or maybe another companies that offer a javascript SDK for their measurement devices
Can we add focus to Markers of Google maps for Android TV app? can we move to the Marker using TV remote.
Are there Google Maps Api dedicated to Android TV.
Here is a documentation about how to handle hardware like TV.
TV hardware is substantially different from other Android devices. TVs
do not include some of the hardware features found on other Android
devices, such as touch screens, cameras, and GPS receivers. TVs are
also completely dependent on secondary hardware devices. In order for
users to interact with TV apps, they must use a remote control or game
pad.
This SO post also discuss how the user handled the Google Maps Geolocation API for Adroid TV.
So IP Address was used instead of Cell tower and Wifi access points. Because currently Geolocation is achievable using that options.
I'm building an application which utilizes google cloud platform's OCR service. I'm still in progress with it and just wanted to know if this service also detects the bar codes and decode them?
Thanks.
No--requiring users to have a network connection just to read a barcode would be excessive, and too slow. Check out the Google Mobile Vision API instead, which runs on the device.
I would like to integrate a simple 'route to my store' using Google Maps MyLocation, for distribution through a mobile browser.
The perfect solution (from the end users viewpoint) would be - A plotted route from the Users GEO-Location, to a pre-configured POI (my store). That's it. I would like to avoid having the 'get directions' dialogue (it'll look squashy on a mobile device). Just a map with a start point, an end point and the route in between.
I'm not certain that this satisfies your goal of avoiding a "Get Directions" dialog, as it will certain involve an intermediate step by the user. But the dialog won't "look squashy" on a mobile device; indeed, it will be optimized for mobile viewing.
If you only plug in the daddr (destination address) coordinates to a map call, using the latitude and longitude of your store (or whatever location), Google Maps will try to set the start location to default to the user's "My Location" position if the device supports it, and otherwise will prompt the user to enter the start location. It will also allow the user to select which of the supported modes of transportation is desired (walk, bike, transit, or car).
This example plots the route from your location to the Martin Luther King, Jr. birth home in Atlanta:
https://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=33.755418,-84.371100
I tested this successfully on the following devices:
Windows 7 desktop using Chrome;
Windows 7 desktop using Firefox;
Windows 7 desktop using Internet Explorer;
Android phone with Jelly Bean OS using installed Google Maps app;
Android phone with Jelly Bean OS using the default browser;
Android phone with Jelly Bean OS using Chrome;
iPhone with iOS6 using the default browser.
Based on the consistency of the responses I got in those tests, I feel confident it would work in most, if not all, scenarios.
