Drawing a route on Apple map (iOS 6+) - iphone

I was looking for many code samples of how to draw a polyline on MKMapView like the second answer (from above) in this link. However, will that solution work on iOS 6 Apple maps? If not, can you provide a link to a sample code that draws the route on Apple maps?

Yes, it'll work.
Google maps and apple maps are different a little bit, could be some little inaccuracies.
All the API's are almost same.
P.S. I use google routes in my app since iOS5 and haven't got any problems when updated app for iOS6.

Draw Map Path among multiple location

I want path from location1 to location2 , location2 to location3, location3 to location4 and location4 to location5.
here is my code

You can use NVPlolineAnnotation to draw line inside the map. Here is the Source Code.
Frameworks needed
QuartzCore.framework
CoreLocation.framework
MapKit.framework
Files Needed
JSONKit.h
JSONKit.m
Set -fno-objc-arc in compile source for JSON in case of ARC.

Finding Path/Route Between two points on MapKit in iPhone

I am trying to find the path between two locations on Mapkit. All I have is two locations. Now I have to find the exact path between these points and draw a line between these points using MapKit. I have gone through several examples in which they are using .csv files. In that .csv file they have stored the latitude and longitude values of the full path and drawing line based on those values.
But here I am trying to draw a line without knowing the path. So is there any way to find the path dynamically and draw a line?
Below is the code to finds path & draws line between two locations.

You can refer this code, it does exactly what you want.EDIT: and this also
I don't think you can do this locally. Implementing an algoritm for finding a path between two gps points requires a lot of input data (data from the maps) and you don't have this. Only a map provider can afford to implement such algoritm and expose an API for using it. I think Google have routing API, but I haven't played around with it...
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/directions/
Note that the TOS say that you have to display the results on a Google map, so you'll have to disable the functionality on the next iOS release

road map from location A to location B by latitude and longitude

I am doing work with map and location. I want to have road map from one location to another location. I am providing latitude and longitude of both the location(destination and source). So please help me to have this map.
I read about Google map api but I didn't find perfect answer.
Use below URL of google map API to find the road map route between two locations
http://maps.google.com/?saddr=STARTINGADDRESS&daddr=DESTINATIONADDRESS
First you have to take the directions from Google. Like this:
NSError *error = nil;
NSString *directionsInJSON = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=%f,%f&destination=%f,%f&sensor=true",start.coordinate.latitude , start.coordinate.longitude , destination.coordinate.latitude, destination.coordinate.longitude]]encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:&error];
After that , parse the JSON you got above:
if (error == nil)
{
NSError *JSONError = nil;
SBJsonParser *JSONParser = [[SBJsonParser alloc] init];
id directions = [JSONParser objectWithString:directionsInJSON error:&JSONError];
if (JSONError == nil)
{
directions = (NSDictionary*)directions;
NSString *status = [directions objectForKey:#"status"];
if ([status isEqualToString:#"OK"])
{
NSArray *routes = [directions objectForKey:#"routes"];
NSDictionary *route = [routes objectAtIndex:0];
NSDictionary *polylineOverview = [route objectForKey:#"overview_polyline"];
NSString *polylinePoints = [polylineOverview objectForKey:#"points"];
NSArray *decodedPolyline = [self decodePolyLine:polylinePoints];
[self loadRouteWithPoints:decodedPolyline];
}
else
{
UIAlertView *alert = [[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"No routes found" message:#"Sorry , we couldn't find any routes between you two." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:#"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil] autorelease];
[alert show];
}
}
}
else
{
NSLog(#"error: %#",error.description);
}
Now you need these methods:
-(void) loadRouteWithPoints:(NSArray *) routes
{
CLLocationCoordinate2D coords[[routes count]];
for(int i = 0; i < routes.count; i++)
{
CLLocation* loc = (CLLocation*)[routes objectAtIndex:i];//[NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData:[routes objectAtIndex:i]];
CLLocationCoordinate2D c;
c.latitude = loc.coordinate.latitude;
c.longitude = loc.coordinate.longitude;
coords[i] = c;
}
MKPolyline *line = [[MKPolyline polylineWithCoordinates:(CLLocationCoordinate2D*)coords count:[routes count]] retain];
[self.mapsView addOverlay:line];
}
And:
- (NSMutableArray *)decodePolyLine: (NSString *)encoded
{
NSInteger len = [encoded length];
NSInteger index = 0;
NSMutableArray *array = [[[NSMutableArray alloc] init] autorelease];
NSInteger lat=0;
NSInteger lng=0;
while (index < len)
{
NSInteger b;
NSInteger shift = 0;
NSInteger result = 0;
do
{
b = [encoded characterAtIndex:index++] - 63;
result |= (b & 0x1f) << shift;
shift += 5;
} while (b >= 0x20);
NSInteger dlat = ((result & 1) ? ~(result >> 1) : (result >> 1));
lat += dlat;
shift = 0;
result = 0;
do
{
b = [encoded characterAtIndex:index++] - 63;
result |= (b & 0x1f) << shift;
shift += 5;
} while (b >= 0x20);
NSInteger dlng = ((result & 1) ? ~(result >> 1) : (result >> 1));
lng += dlng;
NSNumber *latitude = [[[NSNumber alloc] initWithFloat:lat * 1e-5] autorelease];
NSNumber *longitude = [[[NSNumber alloc] initWithFloat:lng * 1e-5] autorelease];
CLLocation *loc = [[[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:[latitude floatValue] longitude:[longitude floatValue]] autorelease];
[array addObject:loc];
}
return array;
}
Voila!
Cheers!

Draw Route on google Map in iphone

I want to draw route on mapview using latitude and longitude. how is it possible to draw?
Here is my code. but it is not working. i have added location in points Mutable array. and after that called drawRoute function to draw route between that location.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
CLLocationCoordinate2D location;
location.latitude = (double) 23.00000;
location.longitude = (double) 73.00000;
CLLocationCoordinate2D location2;
location2.latitude = (double) 73.00000;
location2.longitude = (double) 23.00000;
CLLocation *locationPoint1 = [[CLLocation alloc]initWithLatitude:location.latitude longitude:location.longitude];
CLLocation *locationPoint2 = [[CLLocation alloc]initWithLatitude:location2.latitude longitude:location2.longitude];
[self.points addObject:locationPoint1];
[self.points addObject:locationPoint2];
[self performSelector:#selector(drowRoute)];
}
-(void)drowRoute{
CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
// CGContextSetStrokeColorWithColor(context, [[UIColor blueColor]CGColor]);
CGContextSetLineWidth(context, 2.0);
for(int idx = 0; idx < self.points.count; idx++)
{
CLLocation* location = [self.points objectAtIndex:idx];
CGPoint point = [mapView convertCoordinate:location.coordinate toPointToView:self.view];
if(idx == 0)
{
// move to the first point
CGContextMoveToPoint(context, point.x, point.y);
}
else
{
CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, point.x, point.y);
}
}
CGContextStrokePath(context);
}
I use it using Goggle Map Services. You just have to pass longitude and latitude as a parameter to URL and rest is taken care by Google maps.
- (void)viewDidLoad

Here is an example source code for drawing route on the map using lat,long coordinates.
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#samplecode/Breadcrumb/Introduction/Intro.html
This is how i learnt to do the very task.
Besides, to draw lines, in this post you will find classes for annotation. Check out the source code in the post, it will be more then sufficient to help you i hope.
By using the classes in the second link i have post, you will just have to provide the coordinates (lat,long) and the classes will do the rest :)
I use the code given below to draw a route between two locations:
- (void)fetchPolylineWithOrigin:(CLLocation *)origin destination:(CLLocation *)destination {
NSString *originString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%f,%f", origin.coordinate.latitude, origin.coordinate.longitude];
NSString *destinationString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%f,%f", destination.coordinate.latitude, destination.coordinate.longitude];
NSString *directionsAPI = #"https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?";
NSString *directionsUrlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#&origin=%#&destination=%#&mode=driving", directionsAPI, originString, destinationString];
NSURL *directionsUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:directionsUrlString];
NSURLSessionDataTask *fetchDirectionsTask = [[NSURLSession sharedSession] dataTaskWithURL:directionsUrl completionHandler:
^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error) {
NSDictionary *json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:&error];
if(error) {
//Error in fetching poline
return;
}
NSArray *routesArray = [json objectForKey:#"routes"];
if ([routesArray count] > 0) {
NSDictionary *routeDict = [routesArray objectAtIndex:0];
NSDictionary *routeOverviewPolyline = [routeDict objectForKey:#"overview_polyline"];
NSString *points = [routeOverviewPolyline objectForKey:#"points"];
GMSPath *path = [GMSPath pathFromEncodedPath:points];
[self drawPath:path];
}
}];
[fetchDirectionsTask resume];
}
- (void)drawPath:(GMSPath *)newPath {
GMSPolyline *polyline = [GMSPolyline polylineWithPath:newPath];
polyline.strokeColor =PathColor;
polyline.strokeWidth = 2.5;
polyline.geodesic = YES;
NSArray *styles = #[[GMSStrokeStyle solidColor:PathColor],
[GMSStrokeStyle solidColor:PathColor]];
NSArray *lengths = #[#100000, #50000];
polyline.spans = GMSStyleSpans(polyline.path, styles, lengths, kGMSLengthRhumb);
polyline.map = _mapView;
}

Adding multiple annotations to iPhone MapView is slow

I have code that takes a title and an address of a location,then get coordinates from google maps csv, then add annotation. It works, but when I want to add 50 or more annotation at once it freezes for about 30-40 seconds and then displays annotations, so what I want to know is did I screw up memory management and that's why it's so slow, or something else? Can I speed it up?
Here is the code:
- (void) addAnnotation: (NSString*) annoTitle: (NSString*) annoAddress
{
NSString *address = annoAddress;
NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=%#&output=csv", [address stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
NSString *locationString = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]];
NSArray *listItems = [locationString componentsSeparatedByString:#","];
float langcoord = [[listItems objectAtIndex:2] floatValue];
float longcoord = [[listItems objectAtIndex:3] floatValue];
CLLocationCoordinate2D coord = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(langcoord, longcoord);
// Create an instance of MapPoint with the current data
Annotation *annotation = [[Annotation alloc] initWithCoordinate:coord title:annoTitle];
// Add it to the map view
[mapView addAnnotation:annotation];
// MKMapView retains its annotations, so we can release it
[annotation release];
}
Following methods are use for the multiple pin on MapKit.
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
NSArray *AS=[NSArray arrayWithArray:[reports objectAtIndex:0]];
for (int i=0; i<[AS count]; i++) {
Place* home = [[[Place alloc] init] autorelease];
home.name = [[AS objectAtIndex:i] valueForKey:#"comments"];
home.latitude = [[[AS objectAtIndex:i] valueForKey:#"latitude"]floatValue];
home.longitude = [[[AS objectAtIndex:i] valueForKey:#"longitude"]floatValue];
valueForKey:#"latitude"]floatValue],[[[AS objectAtIndex:i] valueForKey:#"longitude"]floatValue]];
PlaceMark* from = [[[PlaceMark alloc] initWithPlace:home] autorelease];
[mapView addAnnotation:from];
}
[self centerMap];
[UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = NO;
}
Centralized Map between two pins
-(void) centerMap
{
MKCoordinateRegion region;
CLLocationDegrees maxLat = -90;
CLLocationDegrees maxLon = -180;
CLLocationDegrees minLat = 120;
CLLocationDegrees minLon = 150;
NSArray *temp=[NSArray arrayWithArray:[NSArray arrayWithArray:[reports objectAtIndex:0]]];
for (int i=0; i<[temp count];i++) {
Place* home = [[[Place alloc] init] autorelease];
home.latitude = [[[temp objectAtIndex:i] valueForKey:#"latitude"]floatValue];
home.longitude =[[[temp objectAtIndex:i] valueForKey:#"longitude"]floatValue];
PlaceMark* from = [[[PlaceMark alloc] initWithPlace:home] autorelease];
CLLocation* currentLocation = (CLLocation*)from ;
if(currentLocation.coordinate.latitude > maxLat)
maxLat = currentLocation.coordinate.latitude;
if(currentLocation.coordinate.latitude < minLat)
minLat = currentLocation.coordinate.latitude;
if(currentLocation.coordinate.longitude > maxLon)
maxLon = currentLocation.coordinate.longitude;
if(currentLocation.coordinate.longitude < minLon)
minLon = currentLocation.coordinate.longitude;
region.center.latitude = (maxLat + minLat) / 2;
region.center.longitude = (maxLon + minLon) / 2;
region.span.latitudeDelta = maxLat - minLat;
region.span.longitudeDelta = maxLon - minLon;
}
[mapView setRegion:region animated:YES];
}
Define the multiple annotation here.
- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)map viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>)annotation
{
if (annotation == mapView.userLocation)
return nil;
MKPinAnnotationView *pin = (MKPinAnnotationView *) [mapView dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier: #"asdf"];
if (pin == nil)
pin = [[[MKPinAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier: #"asdf"] autorelease];
else
pin.annotation = annotation;
pin.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
UIButton *disclosureButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeDetailDisclosure];
[disclosureButton setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 30, 30)];
pin.rightCalloutAccessoryView = disclosureButton;
pin.pinColor = MKPinAnnotationColorRed;
pin.animatesDrop = YES;
[pin setEnabled:YES];
[pin setCanShowCallout:YES];
return pin;
}
