Is posible to add a custom layers to the new Google Maps SDK for iOS?
*Custom layers in Tile images or in KML format.
In the documentation I see nothing about layers.
No there is not in this initial version. There is some hope though as the similar Android API has one.
I can only suggest raising a feature request

The problem of displaying the gray block when the map is loaded.
I tried both versions of the maps.
Native maps is not very suitable for many reasons, but it is loaded without gray blocks.
Google Maps API is completely suitable, but there is a problem when loading the map. Is it possible to somehow map the cache so that it is displayed as a native map?

I understand you are using the Google Maps JavaScript API with Ionic 2. If so,
have a look at the following feature request in the public issue tracker:

I'm wondering if it's possible to add a 3D model made in Sketchup, exported o KMZ format, to a Google Map, with the Google Maps API. I was able to add KMZ layers that contained simple data as landmarks and such, but when I try to load the 3D model KMZ, the map just shows a default house file icon.
The test map can be accessed here: http://thebob.com.br/maptest/kmz_test.html
The KMZ file is hosted here: https://sites.google.com/site/dmgckmlfiles/kml-files/Bulk_carrier_1509.kmz
At this point I'm just guessing it's not possible to add 3D models like this into Google Maps (as the exact same thing happens if I import the file through My Maps), but I want to make sure of that before giving up.
Thanks in advance for any info!
Well if you are pertaining in Google JavaScript API, Yes this API does support the KMZ as you can see in this link about Supported KML elements. But the 3D object is not.
Also, according to this SO question, that 3D is not yet features in Javascript API. Closest things to this are Styled Maps. Only the Android implementations are available as of now.
But I found this tutorial that can help you if you still want 3D objects.
I am making application on Titanium for iOS and android.
This application uses Ti.Map.
I would like to add image on Ti.Map (google map or apple map)
I have confirmed googlemap API has this function like this below.
Adding a Custom Overlay
I have checked methods of Ti.Map and found createCircle or createPolygon....However these methods are not what I want.
Can I add image as overlay on Ti.Map of Titanium????
No. Ti.Map is very basic and only provides for polylines, polygon and marker additions, but not customizing of the view. If it were possible, it would be only on Android because that is Google Maps.
For your cause, I suggest you add a webview to your app, and use the JavaScript API of Google Maps to fix this. And within this webview add a full size Google Map, so you will not see any borders whatsoever. Should work perfectly fine!
I want to show the google map of my company in the company website. I read on the google maps site that new keys for google map for actionscript are no longer available. How can I show google map in the site?
These are the two alternatives you have :
Bing Maps Platform in Flash/Flex/ActionScript
Yahoo! Maps AS-Flash API
MapQuest offers both Flash and Mobile Flash APIs and they ARE supported!
Obviously this isn't a solution that involves Google, but I've been happy with the MapQuest Flash APIs. Hope this helps!
These are the alternatives we've been deciding between:
Flex Only
ESRI ArcGIS Flex API
AS3
OpenScales
ModestMaps
MapQuest
As a side note if you are just trying to show a simple map on your website, perhaps you should consider the JS Google Maps API? It's fairly simple to add a small map to a html page. Check out http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/
Hope that helps.
I'm trying to integrate Google Earth into Google Maps, and I saw it was possible in v2.
But I can't find any doc about how to do so with v3.
Unfortunately, this is not yet implemented in Google Maps API v3, see the corresponding ticket.
Please note, the more stars a ticket has, the sooner it will be taken care of.
Just a note that there is now an unofficial library at http://code.google.com/p/google-maps-utility-library-v3/ (trunk at http://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/googleearth/)
Here's my offering: https://github.com/myshen/google-maps-v3-earth-map-type.
It's not from Google but it does do a little more out of the box:
Links polygons, rectangles, circles, kml, in addition to markers.
Links mouse events (click, drag, over, out).
I've been trying to port [jlivni]'s code to OpenLayers and have setup a GitHub project for that (1).
Now you can see a demo with Google Maps on one side and Google Earth on the other side:
http://ziglionz.github.com/GoogleEarth-for-OpenLayers/ol.html
Currently the library supports only unstyled placemarks but it shouldn't be too hard to support other features.
The demo also sports a timeline for OpenLayers, that's part of another project (2).
