My map is big. I have changed it by the map of Monaco that came in the example of Martin because it is smaller

Hi,

in b4a...
I was using Mapnik tiles (I was using Mobile Atlas - must use this tool or something else ? 1st - question) and OSM Droid 3.53 for personal use... i ve change mobile phone -took 5 inch better...
but suddenly tiles of MapNik not displaying as before - it is like resolution is different (it is different!)...

+ I am trying from b4j use the same maps with osm droid - is not possible ? something for the same use (2nd-question)

That i am telling... because i want to make an app that will be use at small phones or big or tablets and i want to use the same maps with my desktop app (i will create at b4j)...

So from now on - what type of Tiles i must use in what res / what osmdroid / for offline (ofcourse) use ? (3-5 question)
Is it possible to get geocoding without paying google (getting address name with no or the exactly lat/lon if now address) (6-question)
Is it possible to get distance between lat/lon points through roads from these maps too. (7 question)

Sorry for too many questions but i wanna update my APP and boost it (becasue is too old for my extra options)

Hello, I am still working on my project, I use my own map tiles server and it works very well.
I have not done anything with Mapnik.
In the following link are examples of the OSMDroid library I recommend using version 4.1.
Answer first question:
You can use it in a personal or commercial way respecting the guidelines of Apache License 2.0
Answer second question:
In the examples the map fits on any screen.
Answer question 3-5
All google services are costly if they do not meet the usage conditions.
7.
I am just looking at that point and I saw a project to get routes and the distance from point A and B but it is somewhat complex http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Valhalla

Something I've seen is that most of the sites that offer tiles and geocoding have limits that's why I've been working on my services and until now I already have my own tile server with
Https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-14-04/
Nominatim reverse Geocode
Http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nininatim/Installation
Routes and distance
Http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Valhalla

And I am very enthusiastic trying to add opentraffic but I still do not succeed.

As you realize there is a lot of way but you can achieve a good job.

Thanks for the answer...

1) Not trying to make my openstreetmap server.. i want only use local maps (like city or country) downloaded at my devices (phone, tablet) - whats the best way (app for windows) to download mapnik openstreetmap tiles to my local pc and use at my devices... what resolution i will pick...

But i want to have latest maps and working tiles...

2) can i use ready packs like *.shp.zip or *.osm.pbf from ex. geofabrik.de ?

3) is continue from 2.. .can i use .map or .pbf at B4J (not b4a).. ?

Thanks again

Hello,

I'm using OSMDroid version 3.6. It looks like this may be an older version, but it does everything I want, and it works beautifully.

Thank you Martin.

I am showing maps on an Android Wear Watch. There is no Wi-Fi and no cellular. I download tiles for the area I will be traveling so that I can view my location.

Sometimes I will be viewing maps at, for example, zoom level 16, and I will travel outside the area for which I have tiles. But, I may have tiles stored on the watch for this location at zoom level 15.

Is there any way to detect that tiles don't exist at the current zoom level but do exist for the current location at a different zoom level?

I could then automatically switch to that zoom level.

This is not a biggie requirement, just something that might be useful if it already exists.

Barry.

Hello,
i'm testing for b4a apps using offline sqlitedb maps. As others, i've obtained an empty screen using the example 11 provided at the fist page. I'm not sure what i have to indicate on SetTileSource (my map file's named "sardroidmap.sqlitedb"). Of couse i've placed it directly on osmdroid folder. I'm sure about my map file because i could open it correctly in a Locus GIS (beta) app. I'm using 3.0.8 ver of osmdroid.
Any help appreciate, thank you.
Sorry for my bad english.

Someone had an example -> updating location from a service?
and redraw the mapview?

thanks

Maybe this one:

B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
    Dim MapCenter As OSMDroid_GeoPoint
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)

lat_deg=49.106214
lon_deg=18.926182
MapCenter.Initialize(lat_deg, lon_deg)

MapView1.GetController.SetCenter(MapCenter)

End Sub

Can anyone confirm that OSMDroid_4_1 (Version (0.04)

Hello warwound, why doesn't your OSMDroid library need to be declared in B4A's #Region Module Attributes?

Is there any update out there for B4A that is based on a newer library of the guthub project? OSM-Droid 4.1 for B4A does not load tiles from https servers or servers that redirect their http calls to https. Also http calls have been slowed down on newer Androids by Google making loading tiles a pain.

I think the last version is OSMDroid_4.1 by Martin Pearman from 2015.


I think nothing better for B4A mapping from 2015 until now.
