Re: [Announce] Oh My G...PS! - geeps: native front-end for google maps
Just downloaded the package. I think this is the best map app on N900 for my purpose so far. I would also vote for adding support for traffic layer (not traffic avoidance in direction, just view traffic info on current view) and ability to browse the map by swiping fingers rather than the four arrows. I think these two feature would make this app a winner for me :D

Re: [Announce] Oh My G...PS! - geeps: native front-end for google maps
Having google maps is great. I was using maps on my hero earlier, just messing around, and i love how easy it is, tapping somewhere brings up 'search places' (it even lists my business :D) and street view etc. Any chance of these being implemented soon? Places especially would be great
Also, it's showing sao paulo. I have set position update every second but it's not even in my country let alone my road. Is there a reason for this? |

Hi,
Great front-end, and some requests: - Big cache for offline browsing :) I don't know if you could download all gmaps for later view? - Search place. A simple search interface for zooming into particular place. - World view. Again a simple button to zoom out the lowest level to see the world map. It takes so many rocker action to go to the top level. - A quick "f" key-toggle to switch between fullscreen mode. |

Maybe you can use/share the SQLlite storage being introduced now in Modrana for caching ? I think he also supports Google Map tiles now.
I don't know if the DB scheme supports Google Maps tiles in different forms though (Satellite, Hybrid, Road Maps and Terrain). And what to do with the Traffic layer ... ? But anyway looking already very nice and big potential. No streetview in mind yet ? ... ;) |
Re: [Announce] Oh My G...PS! - geeps: native front-end for google maps
I'd rather it not cache too much. That's why I prefer not to use some of the other solutions. I'd rather not have a large directory/database full of map images taking up space.
There's already several apps that cache data, I like that this one is quick and easy and current. (No messing with zoom levels, auto downloading, data sources, etc) If multiple programs are sharing the same map tiles, which one decides how much space to use? Which one decides which data to keep when purging data? |

Actually, I don't need to do anything to implement street view... just allow "google maps" to show the button. :) Quote:
