Multi Map Routing¶
In this guide you will learn how to compute routes and render them on multiple interactive maps. The maps are fully 3D, supporting pan, pinch-zoom, rotate and tilt.
Setup¶
First, get an API key token, see the Getting Started guide.
See the Setup Maps SDK for iOS guide.
Download the CalculateRouteMultiMap project
example or clone the project with Git.
Extract/unpack the CalculateRouteMultiMap project archive to a folder/directory of your choice. You can create a new directory where to unpack it.
Open the Project¶
Start Xcode, and in the welcome dialog, choose
Open an existing project
.
If Xcode is already started, go to the File menu and choose Open.
Select the CalculateRouteMultiMap.xcodeproj file and click Open.
Verify that Maps SDK for iOS is configured in Xcode, see the Setup Maps SDK for iOS guide.
Set the API key token¶
In any of the Maps SDK for iOS example projects,
click the AppDelegate.swift
file and
scroll down to the getProjectApiToken()
function,
and replace YOUR_TOKEN
with your actual
Magic Lane API Key token, see the
Getting Started guide.
The project is now ready to build and run!
Run the example¶
Either connect a device via USB cable, or select a virtual device.
Run the CalculateRouteMultiMap example.
Click one of the blue route icons at the top and the first map appears. You can pan and zoom the map. On the device you can also rotate and tilt.
Click the other blue route icon at the top and the second map appears.
Click one of the blue route icons at the top to start the route calculation between a preset departure and destination location.
When the route calculation completes, a fly occurs and the map is centered on the computed route(s). The map will be at an appropriate distance so that all computed routes are visible.
Click the other blue route icon at the top and a different route is calculated and rendered on the second map.
If there is more than one possible route between the selected departure and destination points, the alternative routes are also shown in a lighter color.
Click the blue x icon at the top to remove the routes rendered on the maps.
