I would like to use the directions on "travel time" library in Xamarin.Forms in GoogleApi's application.
I found this source.
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/directions/intro#traffic-model
The calculations I want to do have already been made and have been developed online using GoogleApi again. Very successful results are turning.

I have little knowledge of the use of Api. That is why I could not understand the steps I needed to follow when I applied my Xamarin.Forms. It may be a simple and simple question, but I have had to ask because I have not been able to start for hours, thank you.

Hey guys :) maybe I didn't notice but I have a question:
how can I display a few user's geoposition (about 10 people, I supposed) using yandex_mapkit for flutter?
I read a lot in the documentation but it does not have an answer. I just switched to the development of mobile apps for android and do not quite understand how to implement it properly.
1- install
Installation
2- Check out API reference
API docs
3- Implement from javascript code
Examples
I want to upload my application data to google drive.So I have to integrate Google Drive into my application, but I can't find any proper solution or source code for do that thing. So please if any one have full code of how to use Google Drive into android application than please help me.
First, a bit of critique. If you ask a question this way ('show me the magic trick'), it will get promptly down-voted, purged. It only shows you did not do your homework.
The other possibility is that you are starting and being totally lost (been there). If this is the case, let me give you a direction:
Study the 2 APIs available to Android, the REST Api and the GDAA. They do essentially the same thing, the selection very much depends on your app's needs.
Make decision which one to use. Pay special attention to the fact the GDAA supports only FILE scope, limiting the files/folder your app can see. Weight advantages/ disadvantages.
Study / play with the demo code for the API you selected. The links are in the docs you already studied (point 1 above). In case the official Google did not meet your needs, you may also look at the basic CRUD implementations of the 2 APIs here(REST) and here(GDAA)
As you'll see, you are weeks away from getting anywhere. And don't count on anybody here to do the work for you.
Good Luck
I would like to create a navigation application, with mapquest sdk for android, that gives real time turn by turn directions using GPS after a route is created, like when you start a navigation on google maps on button press. Is it possible to implement the feature using just the mapquest sdk or would I require any other api.
Say if there was a possibility, then, is there a way to extract that guidance('turn left/right') cue and use it with in the program?
Yes, it is possible. I'm currently developing my Bachelor Thesis (a mobile navigation service) with the MapQuest API for Android. So as soon as I submitted it I can offer you the source code, too (will be in about a month). However, I can give you some help of course though.
Here is a nice tutorial from MapQuest of how to implement the route functionality. This is not a real time turn by turn guidance but gives you a first impression where to begin!
You can get all instructions from MapQuest here.
If you prefer another API to display the map this is not a problem as the guidance includes all shape points of the route. I chose the MapQuest API for this though as it is a bit easier to display the map for a first glance. However, I recommend you to draw the route yourself on the map though because the implemented method does not always work properly.
Hope I could help you with that and if you are willing to wait a month, I will post here the link to my GitHub repository with the source code.
Best,
Marius
EDIT:
So I submitted my work and can now give you access to my source code. You find my GitHub repository here.
I think the function getGuidance() in the NaviActivity will be a good starting point for your application. It calls the guidance information from MapQuest and converts the information into a JSONObject. The Route class then grabs the required information and sorts them in arrays.
I hope that this will help you with your application. For further questions do not hesitate to ask :)
Best,
Marius
I'm developing an Android app that will do a Google Image Search and return the images to the user in a list. I've looked around on StackOverflow and have run into some problems. First off, I'm a total newbie programmer with only 4 months' worth of programming experience, so I appreciate you guys being patient with me.
I looked through Google Image Search API and I know it's being depreciated and will get shut down someday. Because of this, I don't want to use it. After extensive research on the topic, I don't want to use Bing or another image search service, and I don't want to do a "reverse image search. I just want to use a simple image search via string. I've used this app (https://github.com/tonytamsf/Android-Image-Search) to look at the code, but in all honesty, it's just not helping and it's confusing me more on how to exactly search for an image on Google. Plus, the app won't compile in Eclipse :(
I've also looked around at Google Developer APIs, and I'm not sure if I need to turn on an API key for myself? Still, a bit confused about that. I thought I needed to do a custom search engine, but just by looking at that, I don't think it's exactly what I'm looking for.
Can anyone point me to some resources for this? I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
Just a heads up, but what you're asking is pretty challenging and it sounds like you're just getting started. Here's what I can suggest though:
To get that demo code working in eclipse, I had to right-click the project, click properties, click Android, then check the box for the version of android installed. (I had android 19 installed, and the code was expecting 16, so it was giving up. Tell it to use what you have, which probably is 19). This worked for me after using the git plugin in eclipse to import the project. If you are importing a different way, you may have different issues. * Using git and importing the project is a good skill to have, so if that's unfamiliar territory, take the time to look at that.
Ok, that's the end of what I am sure of. The rest is an educated guess, but I'm sure others can correct me.
Next, if tinkering with that project isn't enough, getting real google image search working will take several skills, especially since the old API is gone. In total you'll need to know:
Java
Android programming
google cloud services
google custom search API
REST
some other libraries to glue the custom search to your app
It's a big chunk there. Currently, it seems the only way to use google's image search is to run a google app engine (you basically set up an online account for google to run a server for you. It does computation and sends messages back and forth for you. You only get a little bit for free each day and then if you want more you have to pay. This is one-way Google earns money. It's not something they let you run on your own computer anymore.). Then you make your android app talk to that server using your new login ID, and the server will take the search term and send back the answers to your android app.
You can get the app engine running and use it in chrome without dealing with android to save yourself time, then add the android part later in the future. Good luck!
I want to do Face recoginition (Not Face Detection) in my Android and iOS app. I have studied a lot on Web and found following possible solutions:
1.) openCV: I don't want to go into writing my own API using this. Also, I don't have prior experience in JNI for Android.
2.) Betaface API So far this is good.
3.) Sky Biometrics is also Good.
Now, I am searching for the solution from 3-5 days and came to know that I can use above API (so far I have decided to purchase license for Sky Biometrics). And this API will provide me a list of Features for the faces it recognised.
But, Now I am confused That how to use these features and save in my local data base to recognise faces from the pictures.So My queries are following
1.) How to convert Face features to Actual working Face recognition API means What is the actual algo or solution I can use to merge diffrent face features of a same person to identify him correctly.
2.) Uploading images and then creating database for Face-features set is a very time taking process. Do any one knows any Android/iOS Face Recoginition SDK to do this so that I can do this accurately and timely with no or less time taking process.
3.) Both solution-2 and 3 can be used with Images. Is there any other solution is available which can do the same with less efforts but with more accuracy.
OpenBR may be also interesting for you: http://openbiometrics.org/
Finally I am using Rekognition API. And this is good enough to serve my purpose.
