Hi,

How would you generate/show a map with multiple marks? I have a set of lat/long that I would like to show on a map. I will read the lat/long from a webservice.

I have been looking at Google map, both building a custom map file local on the android phone, and trying to open a Google map URL with multipe marks direct. I was also thinking about placing the map view on a web server and open the page from the phone.

Before spending to much time I would like to get a recommendations, best way to solve this. 

Thanks

I think you are looking for the addMarker() function:

Hi,

Yes that look intresting :slight_smile: I was looking into http://staticmapmaker.com/ and show it as a remote image. But this looks better. 

It seems like the map view only works on the phone, not in the simulator. Any ideas around that? Thanks

Thanks
