B4A Class Open Street Map viewer - GPS

Hi,

This b4Xlib contains a custom view (cvMap) which can display Open Street Map.

View attachment 109081



The tiles are retrieved from the internet and cached in a database. You can add shapes and images on the map.

UI :
- Lat/lng Center of the map
- Zoom Level
- Compass Direction with rotation
- Scale
- Button Menu
- Grid
- Center
- GPS position and bearing

Event :
- ready
- Lat/lng changed
- Zoom Level Changed
- Compass Direction Changed
- Shape Clicked
- Map Clicked
- Center Lat/lng clicked
- Button Menu clicked
- Scale clicked
- Compass Clicked
- GPS Clicked

Tile Server
2 new properties :

• tileServer : Choose your tile server (see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_servers), default : https://a.tile.openstreetmap.org/
• userAgent : request to the tile server requires a user agent in the header. You can now set your own user Agent : default : Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:27.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/27.0

This 2 properties are available in the designer or with setter/getter from the cvmap : userAgent, tileServer

Dependencies :
- Core
- SQL
- OKHttpUtils2
- XUI
- XUI views

Other files in the b4xlib :
- coMapUtilities : code module with Types, functions, helpers
- clTileManager : standard class module to load tile from database and/or internet and save them into the database
- clMapShapeCirgle : standard class to draw circle on the map
- clMapShapeLine : standard class to draw line on the map
- clMapShapePolygon : standard class to draw polygon on the map
- clMapShapeImage : standard class to draw image on the map
- layout cvmap.bal and cvmap.bjl
- images for the compass and gps



How to use it :
- Just add the cvMap custom view with the designer
- create sub to handle events if necessary
- set options (lat/lng, zoom.....)

B4A example and B4J example included

Hi,

OK, not knowing B4A, I discover its possibilities every day thank you, I'll try, (it's not won)

Hi,

Add a gesture library and detect action.

How can I get a tooltip using B4XMAP?

Hi, for today is your app with this lib working normally? I'm looking for resolve problem of

or is there other working solution than changing UserAgent? Maybe own server?

How come I didn't find by myself, I've checked many many many old libs and apps, even became to an google developer and wrote down my credit card to them ... going to test it. THX

I know why I didn't find - its only B4J and @Star-Dust has no B4A version

Maybe someone's fired up own server like https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server ? Any clue or direction will be appreciated for not loosing time

When StarDust was developing his library, many of us made a few donations towards his efforts and he graciously gave the contributors a copy of the source code. Perhaps you can approach him and see if he would be willing to do the same for you so you can maybe revise it for Android?

Hello,



I encountered the same issue with a PHP/JS project. At the time, it occurred during testing due to too many requests being made in too short a time. Waiting 24 hours resolved the issue.

Having your own tile server would certainly help, too — although I don't know anything about that.
