maps

I'm creating a simple application in Java and I would like to be able to show some points and paths on a map (a road map, not a satellite one). I have been looking for some API that would let me do this, but Google Maps API isn't available for Java and can be only used for web applications, and WorldWind didn't seem to offer road maps and the size of the API was a bit bigger than I would fancy. Do you know of any API that would meet my needs? Thanks in advance. Is it a web application? An Eclipse one? A Swing one? These details are good to tell when you're looking for suggestions of an API.

being a newby IOS developer, I'm really struggling to get something basic to work. I have a need to display this kind of custom info window upon a marker click in the google maps sdk for ios. Any help would be appreciated. I've already seen the third party components, but even with them I cannot get this to display. There is always a title, snippet, left image and right image part. The real question is how do you get the gold star rating in the window, with the text next to it.

I am plotting some maps using Matlab that use mapshow to plot the country border from a shapefile. I then export them to both a PDF and EPS format using the export_fig package. This worked completely fine using Matlab 2014a, but I have just upgraded to Matlab 2014b to take advantage of something else that has improved, and now my country border is all jagged. The border only looks jagged on the saved versions of the file. If I zoom in on the figure window, the outline isn't like that. Here are the snippets of code that are important. It is a custom shapefile, so I don't know how to put it on

I need to implement a search functionality for my Android Google Map Api V2 project and can't find any working example. I just need to enter a city name, press a "Search" button and then the map should move to the city and show a marker on it. Just like the Google Maps application does. Autocompletion should be nice though. I actully get to show the map, show some markers, etc, I just can't get to perform the search and see the results. Please help! Thanks in advance I just need to enter a city name, press a "Search" button and then the map should move to the city and show a marker on it. Just

A Google Map marker can take a complex svg path as its icon as in something like: var baseSvg = { x1 : "m 0,0 l45,0 l 190,225 l -45,0 l -190,-225 z", x2 : "m 225,0 l -45,0 l -190,225 l 45,0 l 190,-225 z" }; var baseIcon = { path: "M0,0 " + baseSvg["x1"] + baseSvg["x2"], fillColor: "#000000", fillOpacity: 1, scale: .2, strokeColor: "black", strokeWeight: 0, rotation: 15 }; which is then fed into a marker: var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ position: new google.maps.LatLng(somelat, somelng), icon: baseIcon }); All good. But it only draws in a single colour (black in this example). So, can

As a follow up on a question I posted yesterday , is there package/function within R that can give me the country (and continent) in which a point defined by longitude and latitude is located? Something along the lines of what is done here in MatLab. Dataframe looks like this... Point_Name Longitude Latitude University of Arkansas 36.067832 -94.173655 Lehigh University 40.601458 -75.360063 Harvard University 42.379393 -71.115897 And I would like to output the above dataframe with country and continent columns added to it. As an added bonus , a column with US states for those in the US (and
