Provide GoogleMap and GoogleEarth

Hope can have something new like this...

Code: Select all

lightingChartUltimate1.ViewXY.Maps.MapProviders = MapProviders.GoogleMap
then have the outcome like this:
Offline Google Map

and also have something new like this

Code: Select all

lightingChartUltimate1.View3D.Globes.GlobeProviders = GlobeProviders.GoogleEarth
then have the outcome like this:
Google Earth

You might interested to refer to a sample of google earth application, if so, download the GoogleEarthSetup.exe here:
http://www.google.com/earth/index.html

Then you can get the world’s geographic information at your fingertips.

I have made a very simple visual studio project for google map test using public library. Do leave me a message if you need the source. :)

Best Regards,

Hi Jhyap,

thanks for your proposition, but we Google maps are not free and we are not allowed to integrate them insider our library and license them to the developers.

We'll probably add support for maps of other map provider instead, that have more reasonable usage terms.
