I'm new in an organization that has an application that renders large tiled images in a web app. Like Google Maps, it has to zoom and pan the views, but unlike Google Maps, it suffers from performance problems.
Is there a general or technical discussion somewhere about the architecture and design of the Google Maps rendering engine? I'd love to get some ideas from how Google Maps is implemented.
Cheers!

I am looking for more than guidelines. I see a lot of details and nice screenshots here http://www.google.com/design/spec/components/lists.html#lists-specs
Where is the sample implementation? The Samples I can download from Android Studio are nowhere near as polished as the screenshots provided in the specs.
I do not mind putting up a nice big bounty on this. I have wasted 2 whole days across github, stack overflow and google to find a decent implementation of the specs which looks exactly like the specs.
In Android Studio Emulator, go for the "API demos" app and its sources.

I want to style the google maps navigation arrows, located in the top left corner of the map. Here is the picture of it:
Is it somehow possible?
It's impossible to do with embed Google Map.
You need to create a map with javascript. Then you can disable controls and style the map.

Hope it will help.

I am trying to use BruTile/Mapsui.
Even online OSM map will be a big progress to my app.
Maybe some of you guys have simple sample?

I'm a bit fed up with the current navigator (TomTom) as it turned to adware after six months of use. "Please buy new maps at www.tomtom.com, click this button to see what you wanted to do".
Is there any (good) OSS navigation software with support for proprietary hardware? I'm perfectly happy to purchase separate maps and hardware for the software as long as I don't have to give my money to TomTom or Navigon.
You should check Routing using Open Street Map.
Although it is not OSS, Waze is a crowdsourced navigation app that does some of the things you mentioned. It allows users to post improved routes when the navigation algorithm doesn't find the best route. I have not used the app, so I don't know if it has the other improvements on usability that you mentioned in your first comment. They are a new app, so maybe would be more responsive to UI suggestions than TomTom or Navigon.

I have downloaded an .osm file from open street map and I want to plot this into an map. What is the best way to do this? I dont want to use Google Maps. Is there any other open source maps available where I can simply use their API?
