Hi Mustafa,

The Map Image API (http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/rest/V1/) only supports a
single location.  The AJAX API (http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/ajax/) does
support multiple markers, but would require using JavaScript or embedding a
browser like context inside your Java app.

Using Java, you could use the Map Image API combined with the Geocoding API
(http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/rest/V1/geocode.html).  You would have to use
the Map Image API to retrieve an image for the first point, then overlay an
additional marker on the image using the result from the Geocoding API.

I know a few months back on the BB there were some postings on YPolyline issues
and their rending in newer version of IE.  I am not having a similar issue with
YPolylines in Firefox 3.5 on the Mac.  The lines sometimes show up, and upon
zooming in and out kind of flicker.

Help?

Subject: Problem with convertLatLonXY method
nkjawle

Send Email Send Email
 
I am just trying to convert an array of YGeoPoints to an array of YCoordPoints
by converting each point individually in a loop.

The source code snippet is as follows:

while(loopCnt < maxLoopCnt) {
	 var tempLat = Points[loopCnt][1];
	 var tempLon = Points[loopCnt][0];
	 temp = new YGeoPoint(tempLat, tempLon);
	 temp1 = new YCoordPoint();
	 temp1 = map.convertLatLonXY(temp[loopCnt]);
	 polylinePointsX.push(temp1.x);
	 polylinePointsY.push(temp1.y);
	 loopCnt++;
}
The Points array has the correct Lat and Lon values, I have already checked
that. The "temp" variable is getting created correctly as well.
But the "temp1" variable gets assigned a boolean value "false" and does not get
the converted values assigned to it. (I checked in the browser's debugger)
Can you tell me what the problem is??

I had previously written a geocoder in C# that would take an address and send it
to the ESRI ArcGIS Webservices to get a geocoded address back.  This webservice
has now gone belly up and I need a new geocoding service to recommend for my
clients and to write an interface for.  Points of my application:

1) This is not a free site.
2) I am not using yahoo maps as my map source.
3) This is for a product that my company is selling and we are asking our
clients to purchase "credits" for this service.

My questions are:

1) Where can I find information on the wsdl and connect to the proper webservice
for Yahoo!'s API?
2) Where can I find information about cost to my clients and how they would
purchase "credits"?
3) Is there a developer account that will allow me to access this without
purchasing credits?

Thanks in advance,
Lee

Hi James,

but how could I find out the pixel position of the second point from which I
only do have the coordinates?

This would probably also answer these questions:

It would be great if you could give some background information!

You can create a class for your map
and include it in the head of your page or in your css stylesheet:

.map {
   width:300px; height:300px;
   border-color:darkblue;
   border-style:solid;
   border-width:1px;
}


Then call the class when you define your div:


<div id="mymap" class="map"><script type="text/javascript">

        // Create a map object
  var map = new YMap(document.getElementById('map'));

        // Display the map centered on a geocoded location
  map.drawZoomAndCenter("44023", 5);

</script></div>

Hi Lee,

the "Yahoo! Maps Web Services - Geocoding API" would be the right thing for you:
http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/rest/V1/geocode.html

For information about commercial use, I think you will have to contact Yahoo:
http://developer.yahoo.com/register/

But you can already try it out, just get yourself a App ID:
https://developer.yahoo.com/wsregapp/

Hi Vadivelan,

take a look at this post:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/yws-maps/message/7191

AFAIK does Yahoo have no API do retrieve the points of a direction request:

"For directions you could either use the Virtual Earth SDK
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc966826.aspx), the MapQuest API
(http://developer.mapquest.com/downloads , take a look at the samples) or the
Cloud Made API
(http://developers.cloudmade.com/projects/show/routing-http-api)."

Have fun,
Tobias

Part ii of your question is rather confusing...

     >>>ii) Retrieve the lat/long for the route identified for the optimum
route

A lat/long point, by definition, is a specific point on earth, not a
route...

A route (assuming you mean by automobile) is defined by by driving
directions
on streets, which are labeled by name, not a single latitude/longitude point

Maybe you could clarify for the group what it is you are trying to do?

Is there a DNS problem going around or is the yahoo maps server having

Subject: using simple API with 3+ groups with different icons, icons appear as dead links
tim85251
Offline Offline
Send Email Send Email
 
I've got an application that creates an XML file and gets the response from the
simple mapping API.  It works quite well except for not loading some of the
images correctly.

In the legend at the top of the map the first few will appear correctly - the
problem is always in the last image or images.  IE7 renders the image as a dead
link (square box with red x).

When those images drop, two things can happen in the map:
The first possibility is for the map to display with the correct images -
despite the images not loading in the legend.

The second possiblity is for the map to display as if I'd not specified an icon
at all, just giving me generic different colored square pointers.

I've looked at the XML I'm generating and don't see an issue.  Using wireshark
to sniff the traffic between my page and yahoo's servers I don't see any HTTP
errors that are happening.

This is a sample of the XML I'm passing the simple API.  I've edited it so as
not to identify anything/anyone.

(I've tried enclosing my icon links as ![CDATA[valid link]] and that just
guarantees that the icons show up as dead links.)


Anyone else seen this issue?

I am using v3.8 of the AJAX Map API and experiencing buggy behavior on IE8. On a
map with 300 markers created with the following snippet:

var marker = new YMarker(geoPoint, this.createCustomMarkerImage(img, xsize,
ysize));
marker.addAutoExpand(desc);
this.map.addOverlay(marker);

When you hover over one it opens but does not close when you hover over another.
However the description of the marker changes in the original marker.

Any ideas?

I recently posted on the observed IE8  behavior of markers not closing on
mouseout. I have narrowed down the offending code. It appears if there is an
anchor in the infovalue parameter, and it has either an onmouseup or an onclick
attribute, the marker fails.

IE7 and FF3.0 work fine.

Is there a workaround? Is there a fix planned?

Thanks.

It seems that there is no test for a valid application ID when doing geocoding
queries:
http://local.yahooapis.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=0&street=8800%20%20S.%20\
Eggleston%20Ave&city=Chicago&state=Illinois

works fine, for instance.  Notice the bogus appid "0".  I tried a few other
random values and they all worked as well.  I'm not sure what the appid is for,
and the documentation on the geocoding API page isn't particularly informative,
but I think this may be a bug.

Hello there

I am having two Lat Long points, right now i am calculating the distance using
the straight line distance But i need the real road distance between these two
points
and my program is in Java
i need it in Java not in JavaScript
any ideas or how to achieve this

for example:
protected double distance(double pX, double pY) {
		 double dx=this.x - pX;
		 double dy=this.y - pY;
		 double distance=Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);
		 return distance;
	 }

Thanking you
Regards
Sameer

I'm trying to change the marker colors to a color that will better match the
website.  I see this method 'setSmartWindowColor'.  I tried applying it to the
YMarker object, but it doesn't seem to do anything, and I can't find any
examples of this method online.

Does anyone have a code example for this method?

  Thanks!

Hi, what is the process for reporting suspected errors in the data returned by
the Maps API?

Querying on the lat, lon, city, and country for Canadian postal code P0M1M0
yields a response with the incorrect city.

here is my query:
http://local.yahooapis.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=<myappID>&zip=P0M1M0

Which says the city is Capreol.  The city is actually CONISTON.

See
http://www.canadapost.ca/cpotools/apps/fpc/business/findAnAddress?execution=e1s1
to get the city name Coniston from Canada Post.

Thanks, Pat

I am still having this issue.  Has no one else had issues using Firefox 3.5 and
rending of Yahoo maps javascript?
