I have a similar need. I'd like to be able to open a map, add a load
of markers (the position of vehicles performing certain duties).
I have a mechanism to periodically get the lastest data and to update
the positions of the vehicles.
Based upon the example code that Pil provided, I think I can get that
bit all working.
I can handle a new vehicle (vehicles go on and off jobs, so as a
vehicle goes on job it appears on the map).
The part I can't seem to do is to deal with a vehicle that goes off job.
I think ...
var marker = new google.maps.Marker(...);
could be ...
var singleMarker = {
id: 'this_markers_id',
lastUpdated : Date.now(),
marker : new google.maps.Marker(...)
};
myMarkers.push(singleMarker);
Ideally, I'd like to use the ID as a key (like in an associative array).
So, maybe ...
myMarkers['this_markers_id'] = singleMarker;
Does this sound feasible?
