PTV Developer Vector Maps and Icons...

[Marko Cancar]

One of my clients wants to build a web application with the PTV Vector Maps.

How can he display specific icons at geo-coordinates he just geocoded?

Thanks and regards,
Marko

Hi Marko,

the answer to your question depends on the chosen mapping framework.
In the Developer tutorials we use the MapLibre library (a community driven fork of MapBox GL)

I just checked the Tutorials: position matching looks promising.

Code: Select all

function addMarker(lngLat, textAsHtml) {
  const popup = new maplibregl.Popup({closeButton: false})
    .setHTML(textAsHtml);
  const marker = new maplibregl.Marker()
    .setLngLat(lngLat)
    .setPopup(popup)
    .addTo(map);
  mapMarker = marker;
  marker.togglePopup();
}
function clearMarker() {
  if (mapMarker) mapMarker.remove();
  mapMarker = undefined;
}
