Example Code

Using Google Maps in LabVIEW

Code and Documents

Attachment

This example shows you how to incorporate Google maps with custom markers into your LabVIEW application.

  • It uses the Google maps static API so it requires an internet connection to get new maps
  • Pick between the different maps types (roadmap, satellite, terrain, hybrid)
  • Provide an array of locations as either address strings or longitude and latitude
  • Support for custom markers
  • Uses a picture control rather than an embedded web browser
  • Zip file contains re-usable set of subVIs which you can use for your own Google map VIs

Hi,

I was wondering if there was any chance of getting this in Labview 8.5 (or compatible) format?

If you could I'd appreciate it.

I would also be interested in Labview 8.5 version if at all possible.  Thanks, looks great!

Hi,

How can we zoom the map?

Hi: I've downloaded the example file and have wired the input so it uses a list of longitude and latitude points from a CSV file. If I limit the data to 70 sets of points or less, I don't encounter an error. However, when I have more than that, I get an error that says "Error 0 occurred at URL too long- Get Map.vi". I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for a work around for this issue. Please let me know. Thanks, Nicole
