Create custom applications with the Google Maps API

Featuring step-by-step examples, this practical resource gets you started programming the Google Maps API with JavaScript in no time. Learn how to embed maps on web pages, annotate the embedded maps with your data, generate KML files to store and reuse your map data, and enable client applications to request spatial data through web services.

Google Maps: Power Tools for Maximizing the API explains techniques for visualizing masses of data and animating multiple items on the map. You’ll also find out how to embed Google maps in desktop applications to combine the richness of the Windows interface with the unique features of the API. You can use the numerous samples included throughout this hands-on guide as your starting point for building customized applications.

  • Create map-enabled web pages with a custom look
  • Learn the JavaScript skills required to exploit the Google Maps API
  • Create highly interactive interfaces for mapping applications
  • Embed maps in desktop applications written in .NET
  • Annotate maps with labels, markers, and shapes
  • Understand geodesic paths and shapes and perform geodesic calculations
  • Store geographical data in KML format
  • Add GIS features to mapping applications
  • Store large sets of geography data in databases and perform advanced spatial queries
  • Use web services to request spatial data from within your script on demand
  • Automate the generation of standalone web pages with annotated maps
  • Use the Geocoding and Directions APIs
  • Visualize large data sets using symbols and heatmaps
  • Animate items on a map

Bonus online content includes:

  • A tutorial on The SQL Spatial application
  • A bonus chapter on animating multiple airplanes
  • Three appendices: debugging scripts in the browser; scalable vector graphics; and applying custom styles

使用Google Maps API創建自定義應用程式

這本實用資源以逐步示例為特色,讓您立即開始使用JavaScript編程Google Maps API。學習如何在網頁上嵌入地圖,使用您的數據對嵌入的地圖進行註釋,生成KML文件以存儲和重複使用地圖數據,並使客戶端應用程序通過Web服務請求空間數據。

《Google Maps: Power Tools for Maximizing the API》解釋了可視化大量數據和在地圖上動畫顯示多個項目的技術。您還將了解如何在桌面應用程序中嵌入Google地圖,將Windows界面的豐富性與API的獨特功能相結合。您可以使用本實用指南中包含的眾多示例作為構建自定義應用程序的起點。

- 創建具有自定義外觀的地圖網頁
- 學習利用Google Maps API所需的JavaScript技能
- 為地圖應用程序創建高度互動的界面
- 在.NET中的桌面應用程序中嵌入地圖
- 使用標籤、標記和形狀對地圖進行註釋
- 理解測地線路徑和形狀,並執行測地線計算
- 使用KML格式存儲地理數據
- 將GIS功能添加到地圖應用程序中
- 在數據庫中存儲大量地理數據並執行高級空間查詢
- 使用Web服務根據需要從腳本中請求空間數據
- 自動生成帶有註釋地圖的獨立網頁
