New! New! New! Goodies for Yahoo! Maps Developers   Message List  
Reply Message #2182 of 7486 |
Tonight's upgrade to Yahoo! Maps Beta includes a heaping helping of
goodness for developers:

- Righteous satellite views
+ Such as this shot of Disneyland:
http://tinyurl.com/hw8y2

- Lots of international cities now work
+ Behold the glory of Hong Kong:
http://tinyurl.com/zy27x
+ What have we here? It is Gstaad:
http://tinyurl.com/l469k
+ Try Stuttgart for some real fun:
http://tinyurl.com/fsv6c

Of course there are map views, satellite views and hybrid views for
the places where we have coverage.

We've updated the documentation for the Flash and AJAX Maps APIs to
V3. As always, you can find them here:

http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/

Here's a direct link to the new JavaScript Flash API Getting Started
guide which has an example of how to use satellite goodness:

http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/flash/jsGettingStarted.html#satellite

Here's the corresponding link for ActionScript Flash:

http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/flash/asGettingStarted.html

The AJAX guide is here:

http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/ajax/index.html

Happy mapping!
