Center Coordinates¶
In this guide you will learn how to center an interactive map on a desired location, specified by a longitude and latitude coordinate. The map is 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 CenterMap project example or clone the project with Git.
Extract/unpack the CenterMap 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 CenterMap.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 CenterMap example. You can pan and zoom the map. On the device you can also rotate and tilt.
Click the blue icon in the upper right of the screen to center the map on the preset coordinates. After panning the map, click the blue icon again to center the preset coordinates.
