You should use reverse geocoding for that :) I haven't done it in flash, only asp.net, but I found an example that implements this:

Is it possible to load ESRI raster tiles from a tiles.arcgis.com service? In this mapbox demo, the line that specifies the basemap tiling service (from Stamen, in this case) is this:
'tiles': [
'https://stamen-tiles.a.ssl.fastly.net/watercolor/{z}/{x}/{y}.jpg'
],
When I edit the fiddle example, however, and try to substitute a tileset I'm interested in using, it doesn't seem to work:
'tiles': [
'https://tiles.arcgis.com/tiles/QcN4ko50whTktDF1/arcgis/rest/services/Ortho_Midland2020_0520and0521/MapServer/tile/{z}/{x}/{y}.jpg'
],
I was able to get direct access to some of the individual tiles, like this, but can't seem to get the URL string right. Here is a page with metadata, as well as the start and end tiles for each zoom level.
Can someone please point out where I'm going wrong with that URL string? I've also changed the initial zoom and x/y to be relevant to the dataset:
center: [-84.39479, 43.820487],
zoom: 11
Here is a fiddle that I've been trying out various URLs in. I would super appreciate pointers about how to format the ESRI tileset URL for use in mapbox gl js. Thanks in advance!
Two issues:
First, the URLs should not have .jpg on the end.
Second, ArcGIS online URLs are z/y/x, not z/x/y
So the correct URL is:
https://tiles.arcgis.com/tiles/QcN4ko50whTktDF1/arcgis/rest/services/Ortho_Midland2020_0520and0521/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}

I am not able to find an endpoint in Places ( Search ) API to add a new POI, Can you please tell me which entry point should be used for POST to add a Place to HERE MAPS?
I would also like to know if the following API will let me add a missing place/business to HERE Maps :
https://developer.here.com/documentation/examples/rest/map_feedback/map-feedback-about-a-missing-place
As far as I know (I work for HERE, but do not know everything), the endpoint you found for Map Feedback would be how you would add information about a missing resource.
I'm creating an interactive map using baidu. Anyone knows how to use bound in Baidu / auto zoom? Is there any auto zoom function in Baidu map?
I can't find anything on their documentation. Maybe there is but it's in Chinese, I can't read Chinese :(
Baidu documentation: http://developer.baidu.com/map/index.php?title=jspopular
Also found this but i cant find any instruction on how to use it.
http://developer.baidu.com/map/reference/index.php?title=Class:%E5%9F%BA%E7%A1%80%E7%B1%BB/Bounds
THanks in advance!
Found the solution! Store marker points to an array and use getViewport() method to get the computed center and zoom. Hope this find helpful to anyone.
map_center = map.getViewport( array_of_marker_points);
map.centerAndZoom( map_center.center.lng , map_center.center.lat , map_zoom);
Hi there i'm using JMapViewer to show maps in my swing app and I've successfully created a panel with map tiles on it but these map tiles are of a particular area used in demo source of Map Viewer, i'm confused about how can i show the tiles of some particular area i want. Just like Google maps i want to show some location of my country (Pakistan) in the maps and i don't know how can i do it.
Secondly, Please explain what are Layer's and Layer Group in JMapViewer? Just an idea.
Edit: how can i download tiles of Islamabad region and then add them to maps.
What i've learnt from demo is this:
private void loadMapTiles(){
map().setTileSource(new OsmTileSource.Mapnik());
map().setTileLoader(new OsmTileLoader(map()));
}
But this shows some specific area they have set to.
I've downloaded JTileDownloader but i'm confused about the url thing because i don't now where to get the url of some specific area.
Given a JMapViewer named map, something like this should display Islamabad:
Coordinate c = new Coordinate(33.7167, 73.0667);
map.setDisplayPosition(c, 10);
org.openstreetmap.gui.jmapviewer.Demo, included in the distribution, is a complete example that illustrates how to use Layer. Click the Tree Layers Visible checkbox to see the effect.
Addendum: Here's the result using MapQuest-OSM at 11x zoom; Mapnik seems to work, too. If no TileSource includes the tiles you want, you may need one of the approaches mentioned here.
Trying to load a geojson result into my google map. According to the documentation ("Every Map has a Data object by default, so most of the time there is no need to construct one.") I can just do map.data.loadGeoJson. The problem is that there is no data property on map. So I tried to just create on by doing google.maps.Data(). Again Data is not a recognized type. This comes from documentation of version 3.16. Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong? this is the url I use to reference map:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?libraries=visualization&sensor=false&language=en&v=3.16
It's a property of the google.maps.Map-instance:
var someMapInstance=new google.maps.Map(/*arguments*/);
//someMapInstance.data will be what you are looking for
console.log(someMapInstance.data);
Now it is showing up. I had recently changed my link from version 3.14 to 3.16 so maybe it just got stuck in cache though not sure how since the url was different but either way it is working now.
