I'm using the Google Maps static API to retrieve an image. I'm trying to figure out a way to grab the image that would be directly to the north, essentially the next tile if it were a map. I know it will be based on the zoom, but I really can't figure out where to start. Any suggestions?

Good day !
I'm developing custom service, that will grab params form Google Maps url, like https://www.google.nl/maps/search/fietsenmaker/#52.1285737,5.0837216,13z/data=!3m1!4b1?hl=en. From this example it's possible to take search param, longitude, latitude and zoom level. All this params will pass to Google Places API and markers will be drawn on Google map. The main problem, i can't get this markers look same as on embed Google Maps. Here is attachment:
In simple words:
Need to dynamically embed map with listing of places, that was originally in search param and place map center according lat/long with original markers as on embed map.
Any ideas ?
Thanks !
Google Embed API will allow you to embed maps with starting params, like map center, object name. You can find it here https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/embed/guide
Good luck everybody !
Is there any way to fetch available photo spheres (within map bounds) using the Google Maps API?
I am trying to build a map like the one here, but can't figure out where to get the photo sphere data from, or if it's even possible - cannot find anything in the documentation other than standard streetview stuff.
edit: I do know that individual photo spheres can be fetched by their pano_id, but need a more efficient way to get a bunch of them onto my map. Manually creating a pano_id collection isn't an option.
I am trying to put an image overlay on google map with bounds. But the image is not mapping to the bounds. I tested using the same bounds in google earth and it works fine there. Can someone please let me know if I need to anything different with google maps to use the same bounds??
fixed using GroundOverlay instead of OverlayView
I'm not sure where to start looking in the documentation, but I'm trying to load map images of cities with their boundaries outlined.
Like this...
Any help getting started would be greatly appreciated, I'm pretty new to the maps api.
Thanks
There is currently no way to request a map with boundaries automatically rendered on it. Your best bet is to pull the polygon information from another system and render using an encoded polyline if you're using the Static Map API or regular overlays in the JavaScript API.

I want to make Custom Map based on Google maps APIs I am using this code to get the Bitmap image
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?zoom=18&maptype=hybrid&size=560x480&markers=loc:26.177001,32.736675&sensor=false
Now I want to scroll the map, How can I do that. in other words I want algorithm to link between coordinates and gotten image size and map zoom
Thanks a lot
You are using Static google maps api. That's mean you will get just a print of the map as an image. This is really useful when you want to show just a place in the map without download the javascript lib.
If you want use the map zoom, scrool and other things you have to use the javascript google maps api
