I'm migrating to new google places sdk client and I want to set more than 2 filter to FindAutocompletePredictionsRequest but I can not find the solution
var autoCompleteRequest = FindAutocompletePredictionsRequest.builder().setLocationBias(
bounds).setCountry("TR").setQuery(query).setSessionToken(
AutocompleteSessionToken.newInstance()).setTypeFilter(ADDRESS).build()
As you can see I can only set one filter also I want to set ADDRESS and ESTABLISHMENT together, I tried to set list of filter but doesn't work
sdk version
implementation 'com.google.android.libraries.places:places:1.1.0'
You can just remove setTypeFilter and by default it works with both.
val request = FindAutocompletePredictionsRequest.builder()
.setCountry(country)
.setSessionToken(token)
.setQuery(constraint.toString())
.build()
You can use a binary mask like:
.setTypeFilter(TYPE_FILTER_CITIES|TYPE_FILTER_ADDRESS)
I'm trying to make a place search function with "Google place autocomplete api" in my android application. When i type just "gl", the API shows me autocompleted place successfully. But on typing "gle", it occurs OVER_QUERY_LIMIT.
I found this policy about query limit in google document and i understood.
"Rate limit is 100 requests per second (QPS). It is calculated as the sum of client-side and server-side requests for all applications using the credentials of the same project."
But i typed "gle" at intervals of one second on purpose.
Is there any way to deal with OVER_QUERY_LIMIT in android or Can i appy debouncing or throttling on autocomplete querying ?
Perhaps, the only solution is paying price..?
I've tried restricted region and RectangularBounds.
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
...
val bounds = RectangularBounds.newInstance(
LatLng(-33.880490, 151.184363),
LatLng(-33.858754, 151.229596)
)
val fields = listOf(Place.Field.ID, Place.Field.NAME,Place.Field.LAT_LNG)
val intent = Autocomplete.IntentBuilder(
AutocompleteActivityMode.FULLSCREEN, fields
).setLocationBias(
RectangularBounds.newInstance(
LatLng(-33.880490, 151.184363),
LatLng(-33.858754, 151.229596)
).setCountry("au")
.setLocationBias(bounds)
.setTypeFilter(TypeFilter.ADDRESS)
.build(this)startActivityForResult(intent,
AUTOCOMPLETE_REQUEST_CODE)
startActivityForResult(intent, AUTOCOMPLETE_REQUEST_CODE)
...
}
I expect showing continuous autocompleted suggestion.

Is their any way to get nearby streetviews coordinates with respect to a particular location (coordinates)
Here, I am using this thing, but it is returning wrong information
.
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=13.0602543,77.6471364&radius=1000&type=streetview&sensor=true&key={API_KEY}
I would suggest using the Street View Image Metadata endpoint in order to get nearest available street view panorama.
In your case you can run the following request
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/streetview/metadata?location=13.0602543%2C77.6471364&radius=1000&source=default&key=YOUR_API_KEY
This request returns the following response
{
"copyright":"© Prashant Dubey",
"date":"2018-09",
"location":{
"lat":13.0602702,
"lng":77.6470768
},
"pano_id":
"CAoSK0FGMVFpcFBLMTdMM25RWEMxWEk4TmJWZkdmbzZpdlZJdWZ0aHhmbFlyR2s.",
"status":"OK"
}
So you have here both the location and pano ID.
I hope this helps!
I'm wondering if there are anyone out that have implemented Google Maps V2 and Baidu Maps in the same version; because GM doesn't work as intended in China?
Or should I split the project into two branches instead? However it would be nice to skip having two branches to maintain.
My solution for this was to implement GM as usual, however if the user has China set (via settings) static maps is to be used, BUT the static map is fetched from Baidu instead of google.
staticUrl = "http://api.map.baidu.com/staticimage?center="
+ location.getLongitude() + "," + location.getLatitude()
+ "&width=" + width + "&height=" + width + "&zoom=15"
+ "&markers=" + location.getLongitude() + "," + location.getLatitude();
Result of https://api.map.baidu.com/staticimage?center=121,31&width=300&height=300&zoom=15:
This method is NOT recommended if trying to implement a real map solution.
Since I have different locations only used by different countries, this solution could be used.
So, that is how I solved it. Hope someone finds this helpful.
Also, I have found that if you use http://ditu.google.cn while in China, it does work.
When using on-line maps in China for your application, whether it's Google Maps or Baidu, there is a transformation of latitude and longitude for legal reasons.
The satellite view in Google Maps uses "Earth" (WGS-84) coordinates. The map view of GMaps in China uses "Mars" coordinates (GCJ-02), and there is code to convert between the two. Baidu maps use the "Bearpaw" coordinates, with a different offset. The Baidu Map API has a demo converting between Google's coordinates and its own systems.
In China, GPS, like everything, has an extra layer of complication :)
If you have built this app, please post the details. Having an English interface to Baidu maps would be great.
You can use both Google Maps and Baidu Maps side by side, but make sure to convert from the WGS-84 coordinates (used by most of the world) to Baidu's coordinates (BD-09, different from China's GCJ-02). Here's some code that does that, based on an example from the Baidu Maps API:
// Google coordinates
var gPoint = new BMap.Point(121.4914, 31.2423); // lon, lat of the Bund Museum in Shanghai - https://www.google.com/maps/#31.2423,121.4914,19z
// gPoint = new BMap.Point(-122.0851053, 37.4219593); // lon, lat of the Googleplex (no Baidu map data but zooms out in Mountain View)
var labelOffset = { offset: new BMap.Size(20, -10) };
// Initialize map
var map = new BMap.Map('allmap');
map.centerAndZoom(gPoint, 15);
map.addControl(new BMap.ScaleControl({anchor: BMAP_ANCHOR_TOP_LEFT})); // add scale
map.addControl(new BMap.NavigationControl());
map.addControl(new BMap.MapTypeControl()); // map type control: street/satellite/2.5D
map.enableScrollWheelZoom(); // mouse wheel scroll is disabled by default
// Add Google marker and label
var markerG = new BMap.Marker(gPoint);
map.addOverlay(markerG);
markerG.setLabel(new BMap.Label('Google coordinates marker appears<br/>at incorrect location on Baidu Map', labelOffset));
// Coordinate conversion ... GCJ-02 coordinates ... Baidu coordinates
BMap.Convertor.translate(gPoint, 2, function (point) {
var marker = new BMap.Marker(point);
map.addOverlay(marker);
marker.setLabel(new BMap.Label('Converted to Baidu coordinates:<br/>' +
point.lng + ', ' +
point.lat +
'<br/>(note the offset of ' + (map.getDistance(gPoint, point)).toFixed(2) + ' meters)',
labelOffset));
map.addOverlay(new BMap.Polyline([gPoint, point])); // draw a line between points
});

If the snippet above doesn't work due to the way StackOverflow sandboxes scripts, try the JSbin demo of Google -> Baidu coordinates conversion instead.
If you must perform the conversion offline, check out the evil transform project on GitHub.
It's unclear though what coordinate types browsers localized in Chinese will return via the navigator.geolocation API. I've made a test app for that and posted the question at
Showing navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition in Baidu Maps.

PROBABLY a bit late to the party, but I accidentally stumbled across something recently which might help you.
I tried baidu maps and it was shockingly difficult to setup and terrible to use so I had a look around and suddenly, google maps worked for me without a vpn!
I realised that the old google china server was still active and if you try:
maps.google.cn
you'll find that creating an iframe using the google.cn address works!
Try to use this way with Google coordinate

If your server can access GM without issues (eg. your hosting is not in China mainland or it is but has uncensored connection), why don't you have server do loading data from GM and route it to user instead? We did that for few projects in the past, worked like a charm.
p.s. you could make php pull static map from GM for requested long/lat, store it into temp file on server, then pass back url to the temp file. From user's perspective they would be looking at (static) GM.
p.p.s. If you need user to be able to use GM's UI (do pan/zoom) then you'd need a bit more complex php that would alter all JS loaded from GM so all data would still be requested to your server which would then get maps - so basically to avoid any requests from client machine to be sent to GM server, but all to be sent to yours instead.
This is a question about Mapquest Android Maps API.
Does anyone know that the createRoute method is supporting lat/Lng or not in mapquest?
public void createRoute(java.lang.String from, java.lang.String to)
The document I found here:
I have read the "Location Format Documentation" : link
It seems that createRoute method supports lat/Lng.
I tried to input lat/Lng a whole day but it returns me an error message only:
Unable to create route.
Error: -1"
Message:[null]
Are you still seeing this error message? The MapQuest Android Maps API does support lat/lng input for routing. Here is a sample request that uses lat/lng inputs:
private void displayRoute() {
RouteManager routeManager= new
RouteManager( this );
routeManager.setMapView( map );
routeManager.createRoute( "{latLng:{lat:37.765007,lng:-122.239937}}" , "Fremont, CA" );
}
Also, The MapQuest Developer Network has an Android Maps API forum. It is also a good resource to check!
You can write like this
RouteManager routeManager = new RouteManager(this);
routeManager.setMapView(map);
routeManager.createRoute("37.002004,35.322998", "36.802687,34.632812");
or like this
RouteManager routeManager = new RouteManager(this);
routeManager.setMapView(map);
routeManager.createRoute("Any City Name", "Any City Name");
MapQuest is supporting this types
