mapkit

I have done routing in iOS apps before, but with iOS6 we are now displaying Apple maps - which causes a problem because we are using Google routing data and if we use Google data, we are supposed to be displaying it on a Google map. I have been searching but as far as I can tell, Apple does not provide any routing data. The closest thing to an answer so far seems to be when Apple says Apps that consume direction information do so by sending an appropriate request to the Maps app, which then handles the task of displaying that information to the user. - which, to me, means that the Maps app

I've got two custom annotation classes for my map: one for a single post tied to a location, and one for a cluster of those posts. The cluster stores pointers to all of the posts it contains, as well as a central lat/long location (calculated using the locations of the posts it contains). I have the behaviour that when I click on a cluster annotation it removes the cluster and adds its posts to the map. What I want is to change the pin-drop annotation when expanding the clusters to an animation whereby the new pins move outwards from the centre of the cluster to their new locations. However, I

I using a custom image for my mapkit annotation. But the main problem it seems that I am running into in using a custom image, is that when zoomed out, the annotation is not in the correct point on the map, and ONLY until I zoom in all the way down, will it show the annotation point in the correct place. It seems that when I use a regular pin MKPinAnnotationView , it works normally, as with the pin being in the correct place zoomed in or out, thanks in advance for anyone that can help. The code I have used is as follows: - (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)aMapView viewForAnnotation:(id

Here is my previous thread, where I set image to annotation view pins Swift - setting different images from array to annotation pins Right now I encountered a problem with setting rounded corners on annotation view image. cannot show callout with clipsToBounds enabled swift appears that I have to choose between rounded corners or showing callout, I don't really get why these two can't come along. Is there any way to do that? Here is my viewForAnnotation function: func mapView(mapView: MKMapView!, viewForAnnotation annotation: MKAnnotation!) -> MKAnnotationView! { if !(annotation is

I'm doing the following and always get green pins: pin.pinColor = MKPinAnnotationColorRed; [self.mapView addAnnotation:pin]; [pin release]; pin is of type "NSObject ". All pins come out as green. Should I be doing it differently? Make sure your pin class implements the MKAnnotation protocol and I believe to get a non-standard pin color, you'll have to implement the viewForAnnotation method. - (MKAnnotationView *) mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>) annotation { MKPinAnnotationView *newAnnotation = [[MKPinAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation

I am trying to find the distance in miles using the latitude and longitude. I have the following method: - (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateToLocation:(CLLocation *)newLocation fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation { if(!newLocation) return; if ((oldLocation.coordinate.latitude != newLocation.coordinate.latitude) && (oldLocation.coordinate.longitude != newLocation.coordinate.longitude)) { CLLocation *loc1 = [[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:oldLocation.coordinate.latitude longitude:oldLocation.coordinate.longitude]; CLLocation *loc2 = [[CLLocation alloc]

I am currently trying to make a searchbar that autopopulates with locations as the user types. I am using a MKLocalSearch to get a MKLocalSearchResponse and it appears to return values I can use. However to get the name, address or coordinates out of the search needs access to the MKPlacemark property in the search response. When I access the placemark I get the error: 'placemark' is unavailable: APIs deprecated as of iOS7 and earlier are unavailable in Swift var request = MKLocalSearchRequest() request.naturalLanguageQuery = searchText //PUT HERE: check if network is on? let localSearch:
