I wanted to connect multiple markers to a single location using javascript.
I have written the code below and I am getting markers that are getting connected sequentially (as in the image provided).
FYI, I am a beginner in working with javascript and google maps.
I wanted to connect the markers to the following location ['134.56.32.13',19.0760,72.8777]
where,
'134.56.32.13' is the example IP address
19.0760 is the latitude
72.8777 is the longitude.
This is a link i found helpful in connecting the locations -
Connect Multiple markers with polyline
var locations = [
['123.134.67.145', 22.5726, 88.3639],
['140.91.57.132', 28.7041, 77.1025],
['110.191.167.130', 13.0827, 80.2707],
['192.168.151.151', 12.9716, 77.5946]
];
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 4,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(19.75, 77.94),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
});
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var marker, i;
var flightPlanCoordinates = [];
for (i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(locations[i][1], locations[i][2]),
map: map
});
flightPlanCoordinates.push(marker.getPosition());
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker, i) {
return function() {
infowindow.setContent(locations[i][0]);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
})(marker, i));
var flightPath = new google.maps.Polyline({
map: map,
path: flightPlanCoordinates,
strokeColor: "#ff0000",
strokeOpacity: 1.0,
strokeWeight: 2
});
flightPath.setMap(map);
}
The markers are getting connected sequentially.This is the image.
This is how the output should look like
Easiest to add that entry to your array, then skip it, and create two point polylines starting there and going to each (other) marker in the array:
var locations = [
['134.56.32.13', 19.0760, 72.8777],
['123.134.67.145', 22.5726, 88.3639],
['140.91.57.132', 28.7041, 77.1025],
['110.191.167.130', 13.0827, 80.2707],
['192.168.151.151', 12.9716, 77.5946]
];
for (i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(locations[i][1], locations[i][2]),
map: map
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker, i) {
return function() {
infowindow.setContent(locations[i][0]);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
})(marker, i));
if (i != 0) {
var flightPlanCoordinates = [
new google.maps.LatLng(locations[0][1], locations[0][2]),
marker.getPosition()
];
var flightPath = new google.maps.Polyline({
map: map,
path: flightPlanCoordinates,
icons: [{
icon: {
path: google.maps.SymbolPath.FORWARD_CLOSED_ARROW
},
offset: '50%'
}],
strokeColor: "#ff0000",
strokeOpacity: 1.0,
strokeWeight: 2
});
flightPath.setMap(map);

I have an array of coordinates in LatLng format. I would like to construct a polygon using those coordinates. I know I can hardcode a polygon with individual coordinates like this:
var triangleCoords = [
{lat: A, lng: A},
{lat: B, lng: B},
{lat: C, lng: C}]
Is it possible to place the LatLng data points from my array into triangleCoords and create the polygon that way?
Correct me if I had misunderstood your question.
Q:
Is it possible to place the LatLng data points from my array into triangleCoords and create the polygon that way?
A:
Short answer: No. Unfortunately there is no smartness in the google.maps.Polygon code which would magically try to figure out the lat and lng coordinates of the specified google.maps.LatLng objects for you.
You will need to use the lat() and lng() APIs to return the raw coordinate values from the google.maps.LatLng object and plug that into your array. No shortcut.
Example:
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"),
{
zoom: 4,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(22.7964, 79.8456),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID
});
var coordinateA = new google.maps.LatLng(18.979026,72.949219);
var coordinateB = new google.maps.LatLng(28.613459,77.255859);
var coordinateC = new google.maps.LatLng(22.512557,88.417969);
var coordinateD = new google.maps.LatLng(12.940322,77.607422);
var coords =
[
{lat: coordinateA.lat(), lng: coordinateA.lng() },
{lat: coordinateB.lat(), lng: coordinateB.lng() },
{lat: coordinateC.lat(), lng: coordinateC.lng() },
{lat: coordinateD.lat(), lng: coordinateD.lng() }
];
metros = new google.maps.Polygon(
{
paths: coords,
strokeColor: "#0000FF",
strokeOpacity: 0.8,
strokeWeight: 2,
fillColor: "#0000FF",
fillOpacity: 0.26
});

I want to google circle act as markers. I just completed that task now additionally i need to change color of circle.
I want to change color of already drawn google map circles with help of already generated google circle Id
Is this Possible???
One option would be to push the circles as you create them into an array, so you can access them later (say circles =[];).
Iterate through the array setting the 'fillColor' property of each circle (and whatever else you want to change).
for (var i = 0; i < circles.length; i++) {
if (circles[i].get('fillColor') == "#FF0000") {
circles[i].setOptions({fillColor:'#7faf8e'});
} else {
circles[i].setOptions({fillColor: "#FF0000"});
}
}

If you want to set the color of the circle by its Id, then use an associative array indexed by the id:
circles[cityCircle.id] = cityCircle;
Then change the color like this:
var circleId = document.getElementById('circleId').value;
var circle = circles[circleId];
if (circle.get('fillColor') == "#FF0000") {
circle.setOptions({fillColor: '#7faf8e'});
} else {
circle.setOptions({fillColor: "#FF0000"});

I am trying to fill an area that is bordered by polylines that are snapped to roads. Here is my code:

strokeColor: "red",
strokeOpacity: 0.8,
strokeWeight: 2,
fillColor: '#FF0000',
fillOpacity: 0.35,
});
var service1 = new google.maps.DirectionsService(),traceroadTrip1,snap_path=[];
traceroadTrip1.setMap(map);
for(j=0;j<roadTrip1.length-1;j++){
service1.route({origin: roadTrip1[j],destination: roadTrip1[j+1],travelMode: google.maps.DirectionsTravelMode.DRIVING},function(result, status) {

snap_path = snap_path.concat(result.routes[0].overview_path);
traceroadTrip1.setPath(snap_path);
}
});
}
I'm not too familiar with javascript and I'm hoping it's easy to create a polygon from polylines that are snapped to roads. Once I have a polygon I'd like to color the area.
Thanks for any and all help.
Change the google.maps.Polyline to a google.maps.Polygon.

I've been trying to rotate the Google Maps API SVG aircraft symbol so it shows the aircraft's correct heading each time the symbol moves. It initially loads showing the correct heading - I just can't seem to work out how to update it to the new heading. I've spent 2 days trying and very much failing. I thought I'd be able to simply change it by adding rotatation: getTrueHeading but no such luck.
The only way I can get it to closely do what I want is by adding the planeSymbol instance and the marker instance in to the
setInterval(function() {}, 3000);
function towards the bottom but this (obviously) duplicates the aircraft icon and seems very inefficient.
I appreciate the code below is not very good so please excuse it's quality - still very much work in progress and I'm also very new to javascript.
If anyone could help I would be most grateful.

Read the heading from the DOM just like you do the coordinates and use it to set the rotation property of the icon.
// read the value for the heading from the DOM
var gettrueHeadingEl = document.getElementById('trueHeading');

// set the rotation property of the icon
marker.setPosition(new google.maps.LatLng(getLat, getLong));

newIcon.rotation = getTrueHeading;
