[Google Maps API v3] Pass markers as canvas instead of urls?

I'm generating lots of custom markers for my maps at runtime using canvas. Given that gmaps is also using canvas, there's some annoying wasted computation involved in extracting my canvas as a data: url and passing it to gmaps as the url of a marker so that gmaps can parse the data url as an i

Summary of Issue: Hello guys, I am doing a project about creating a route planer based on Google Maps API using Javascript and PHP. I have built a interface which can let people find route and distance between 2 points on the maps and can also initialize the map at a specific location. However,

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Transaction limits and associated costs

If you have multiple maps on a single domain, then the cumulative total map loads per day for that domain is what the quota is computed on. This was clarified by Thor in an earlier post in this thread. -John Coryat -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "

Hi Since SVG are XML files are you asking if it is possible to embed a Google map in an XML file?? Or do you mean haviing a Google map document(ie HLML page) which contains SVG(which modern browsers treat as an img tag.) which is possible. Also note Google static maps are image files. Regards Davi

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Transaction limits and associated costs

Hi The 25K limit is for the page with the map. As long as this page is not page that generates the 25K hits you should not incur costs. I have seen sites(mostly property) with multiple maps on a page which is probably why Google are starting charging. ie If you are worried about going over the 25K

Re: [Google Maps API v3] LatLng at pixel location?

After a bit of experimentation, it turns out that fromContainerPixelToLatLng() is actually what I'm after. I.e., var pixelLatLang = overlay.getProjection().fromContainerPixelToLatLng(new google.maps.Point(300,150)); var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ position: pixelLatLng, map: map });

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Clustering with 12000 markers

MarkerClustererPlus has an option (batchSizeIE) that can be used to avoid timeout errors when clustering a very large number of markers when using Internet Explorer. All other browsers should be able to handle 10-20K markers with no problem. IE will be very slow in creating the clusters, however.

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Transaction limits and associated costs

We should be given a choice of shutting the site down when the 25k limit is reached or paying to keep it online. As stated by a previous poster, the cost of keeping the site up after the threshold is far greater than the ad revenue generated by the site. Shutting it down would be a negative to t

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Transaction limits and associated costs

I agree with comments from abanjo and others that the transaction costs will badly affect sites which are semi-commercial or ad-supported and generate a lot of map transactions. My site generates more than 25,000 transactions per day but would not be economic to run with the transaction charges
