MKMapView has the cunningly named method:
setUserTrackingMode:animated:
As the documentation states:
Setting the tracking mode to MKUserTrackingModeFollow or MKUserTrackingModeFollowWithHeading causes the map view to center the map on that location and begin tracking the user’s location
I am implementing map based application in iPhone sdk. I want to give functionality in map view like Google maps directoins. means is at some location from that he selects one pin from multiple pins from MKPinAnnotationView. is it possible that user can get direction from his current location to selected pin location in MapView? user can select any aanonations from that he can get directions in some way of line to his current location to pin location. i have get some idea from here
but this all was some static data you can download this example.
here also apple example. but this example is only for track & draw line for user movement.
is it possible that user can get direction from his current location to selected pin location in MapView?
Yes. You can send a query to google maps api using your current location and the selected annotation location. When google responds with the route, you will use that polyline decoder method to decode the data and draw the route on your map view.
I have got all side idea from here
this can be useful for other developers also.
i have found some other examples also that can be also useful for other developers just google. you will find this is polyline link for user current location use this apple code
Here is Google direction api. Read it and use it.
For test purpose you can check this request
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=28.459497,77.026638&destination=28.435600,77.009997&sensor=true
And use JSON Viewer to see the json response.
Hey guys,
I'm building an iPhone app for my company and in one of the sections I want to create a tab bar item where it pin point the location of my company. So far I built a basic map view, but I haven't figured what would the code be for pin pointing the location of my company. hope someone can help, thanks
Did you try investigating MapCallouts from Apple Sample Code?
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#samplecode/MapCallouts/Introduction/Intro.html
What I'm trying to achieve is that there is an event being held at Exhibition Park in Canberra (that's in Australia) which makes use of the building on the property. What I'm not sure about is how to show these buildings and label them in MapKit when they don't appear in the maps application.
Does anyone have any solutions about this? Should I just use pin points and annotations or is there a better way of accomplishing things?
Please note that I'm unfamiliar with MapKit so as much detail in the answer would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt.
I would recommend you use MKPinAnnotation to add pins to the map, configured to show callouts when you tap on them.
The easiest way to pickup MapKit is to watch the WWDC video on the subject, which you can download from the iOS developer portal.
I have a number of waypoints stored in my app database, how would I pass these to the MapView in my app ?
If anyone can point me in the direction of a tutorial or some sample code would be great.
Regards,
Stephen
