I would like to search places between two given distances, using GeoPoints. Using the currently api, I think I could make something like this pseudo algorithm:
query.whereWithinKilometers("directions", GlobalData.ownerGeoPoint, MAXIMUM distance);
MINUS
query.whereWithinKilometers("directions", GlobalData.ownerGeoPoint, MINIMUM distance);
How can I translate to real code?
Finally I found a way to do it with a parse query.
// Do not want locations further than maxDistance
ParseQuery query = ParseQuery.getQuery("MyData");
query.whereWithinKilometers("location", userGeoPoint, maxDistance);
// Do not want locations closer than minDistance
ParseQuery<ParseObject> innerQuery = ParseQuery.getQuery("MyData");
innerQuery.whereWithinKilometers("location", userGeoPoint, minDistance);
query.whereDoesNotMatchKeyInQuery("objectId", "objectId", innerQuery);
Likely you'll have to pull in everything within the maximum distance from Parse to your app, then inside your app filter out anything that is closer than the minimum.
Thankfully Parse includes some distance measuring as part of PFGeoPoint. Check out the three methods here.
distanceInRadiansTo:
distanceInMilesTo:
distanceInKilometersTo:
So your pseudocode is:
(After you get back everything within the outer radius)
Make a new array (var) called finalList
For i = 0; i < objects.count; i++ {
var gp: PFGeoPoint = objects[i]
if gp.distanceInMilesTo:originalGeoPoint >= minimumRadiusInMiles {
finalList.push(gp)
}
}

Edit: Show what the mapManager.filter() method does.
I have an Android app with ~20k markers being draw on the map and with filters option so the markers are being drawn and remove a lot.
I'm currently using this clustering library because it's way more efficient for displaying a large amount of markers than the classic google map library. But it's not supported and hasn't been updated since 3 years and i haven't found any alternatives.
Here is a video of the bug.
Here is my code that is call when i click on an filtering option in my app:
private void filter(){
//currentMapManager contain all the filters option and also the array list
//of the unfiltered markers (~20,000 markers)
//it's filter method retrieve the current filtering option enable (marker type, and other specs)
//And return markers from the full arraylist that match those filters options.
ArrayList<MarkerModel> filteredList = currentMapManager.filter(currentMapManager.getAllMarkers());
if (clusterManager != null) {
clusterManager.setItems(new ArrayList<>());
clusterManager.onCameraIdle();
clusterManager.setItems(filteredList);
clusterManager.onCameraIdle();
}
Here the mapManager.filter() method.
public ArrayList<MarkerModel> filter(List<MarkerModel> currentMarkers) {
ArrayList<Object> filtersArray = filters.getFilters();
/* filtersArray is an array like this :
* ['type', ['typeFilter1', 'typeFilter2'],
* 'date', dateTimestamp,
* 'withPictures', true,
* ....]
*/
return filter(currentMarkers, filtersArray);
}
private ArrayList<MarkerModel> filter(List<MarkerModel> currentMarkers,
ArrayList<Object> fieldsAndValues) {
if (fieldsAndValues.size() % 2 == 1) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Missing value in call to filterList().
There must be an even number of arguments that alternate between
field names and values");
} else {
//Here the arraylist that we are returning
ArrayList<MarkerModel> filteredMarkers = new ArrayList<>();
List<Object> argumentList = new ArrayList();
Collections.addAll(argumentList, fieldsAndValues);
if (!currentMarkers.isEmpty()) {
for (int j = 0; j < currentMarkers.size(); j++) {
MarkerModel marker = currentMarkers.get(j);
boolean isInFilter = true;
//Check fieldsAndValue filters...
//If isInFilter stay to true we
filteredMarkers.add(marker);
}
}
return filteredMarkers;
}
}
I think the problem is that the cluster library is not supposed to have so much redrawn and it broke at some point from reading and working on 20k items arraylist.
I have look through all the forks branch of this library and look/try to understand the library source code but hasn't find any solution at my problem...
If you need other part of my source code to understand more tell me i will add it.
Thanks a lot if you can help me i have been struggling a lot with this issue...
I need to draw graph like the image i have uploaded , i am using MP chart library and develop a graph but want to customize it according to my requirement but not able to find solution for my requirements my basic requirement is for x axis i want to show custom values at axis like 5-11 12-18 but i am passing value to x axis like this
private ArrayList<String> setXAxisValues() {
ArrayList<String> xVals = new ArrayList<String>();
xVals.add("10");
xVals.add("20");
xVals.add("30");
xVals.add("30.5");
xVals.add("40");
return xVals;
}
So it is showing x values like this 10 20 30 so on so i want my graph to be built upon using these x value which is happening right now but want to show custom value at bottom like 5-11 etc and this value is dynamic coming from Api response so please help me about this , Waiting for positive and early response Thanks in Advance
To format the x-axis values, you should use the setValueFormatter method which takes a callback interface were you have to implement the getFormattedValue method which is called before drawing the x-axis value.
xAxis.setValueFormatter((value, axis) -> {
String res = "";
try {
// get current position of x-axis
int currentPosition = (int) value;
// check if position between array bounds
if (currentPosition > -1 && currentPosition < maxSize) {
// get value from formatted values array
res = xVals.get(currentPosition);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
// handle exception
}
return res;
});
I am using android Here-sdk. I got total distance of perticular route from MapRoute object. So now i want to get arrival/travel time of perticular route.
Below is the code for distance. what would i do for get time from MapRoute object. Thanks!
for(int i = list_routes.size() ; i > 0 ; i--)
{
MapRoute mapRoute = new MapRoute(list_routes.get(i-1).getRoute());
mapRoute.setColor(color_array.get(i-1));
mapRoute.setTrafficEnabled(true);
// here i got total distance
int distance = mapRoute.getRoute().getLength();
m_map.addMapObject(mapRoute);
}
You can do it like that:
int timeInSeconds = mapRoute.getRoute().getTta(x, y).getDuration();
where x is TrafficPenaltyMode and y is subleg number. You can check the details in the documentation.
The documentaion link change use this instead documentation
the getTTa method is deprecated now, use
Route.getTtaIncludingTraffic(int subleg)
or
Route.getTtaExcludingTraffic(int subleg)
if you want the travel time for the whole route use this value
Route.WHOLE_ROUTE
example:
int timeInSeconds = route.getTtaExcludingTraffic(Route.WHOLE_ROUTE).getDuration();
I am creating a Phonegap App (using jQuery and Google Maps API V3) related to travelling and would like to show the user the distance he/she has travelled since starting the app.
Is there any Google function for this? Or can anyone recommend what I can do to get the total distance travelled?
It can be done easily. You have to understand, by using a Google Maps API for jQuery you have all needed tools to do it by yourself.
First, you need to define a time period (lets say 1 minute). We will need it to create a reference point of our movements. Next step is to use phonegap/cordova geolocation API to calculate our position (latitude and longitude):
http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.0.0/phonegap_geolocation_geolocation.md.html
At this point choose do you want to:
Store a position (latitude and longitude) every 1 minute in some js array
Or do the same thing like in point 1 and also show it on the map with gmap addMarker ability.
At the end you need to calculate a distance. Loop through the position array and use latitude and longitude to calculate a distance between every available point. Here you will find function used for a such calculation (with a js example):
http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html
Or you can use Google Maps APi function:
google.maps.geometry.spherical.computeDistanceBetween (latLngA, latLngB);
EDIT:
Here's a working example for you: http://jsfiddle.net/Gajotres/6YpAG/
Code:
$(document).ready(function(){
// Chicago
var coordinateObject= new Object();
coordinateObject.lat = '41.83682786072714';
coordinateObject.lng = '-87.626953125';
geoLocationHandler.addLocation(coordinateObject);
// New York
var coordinateObject= new Object();
coordinateObject.lat = '40.58058466412761';
coordinateObject.lng = '-74.00390625';
geoLocationHandler.addLocation(coordinateObject);
// Toronto
var coordinateObject= new Object();
coordinateObject.lat = '43.70759350405294';
coordinateObject.lng = '-79.365234375';
geoLocationHandler.addLocation(coordinateObject);
var len = geoLocationHandler.arrLocations.length;
for (var i = 0; i < len; i++) {
if(i == 1){
geoLocationHandler.distance += geoLocationHandler.calcDistance(geoLocationHandler.arrLocations[i-1].lat,geoLocationHandler.arrLocations[i-1].lng,geoLocationHandler.arrLocations[i].lat,geoLocationHandler.arrLocations[i].lng);
}
}
alert(geoLocationHandler.distance);
});
var geoLocationHandler = {
arrLocations : [],
distance : 0,
addLocation:function(obj){
geoLocationHandler.arrLocations.push(obj);
},
calcDistance:function(fromLat, fromLng, toLat, toLng) {
return google.maps.geometry.spherical.computeDistanceBetween(new google.maps.LatLng(fromLat, fromLng), new google.maps.LatLng(toLat, toLng));
}
};
Final result is a distance expressed in meters.
Every time you have a new coordination use this to create a new object and add it to the array:
var coordinateObject= new Object();
coordinateObject.lat = '41.83682786072714'; // Change with your latitude
coordinateObject.lng = '-87.626953125'; // Change with your longitude
geoLocationHandler.addLocation(coordinateObject);
I have a 10-field average lap calculator. However, in testing, someone said they normally only run X laps in practice, vs. 10 (let's say 7).
I think I could use an if statement, but there'd be at least 10 of them and a bunch of clumsy code, and I'm not sure on arrays/switch statements exactly. I think all of those might be possible, but my low level of experience has yet to fully comprehend these useful tools.
CURRENT CODE:
double tenLapAvgVar = ((lap1Var + lap2Var + lap3Var + lap4Var + lap5Var + lap6Var + lap7Var + lap8Var + lap9Var + lap10Var) / 10);
So essentially, if someone leaves a field or fields blank, I want to calculate the average based on the populated fields, not 10 (if they leave 3 fields blank, calculate based on 7, for instance). Any help you guys could provide would be much appreciated, thanks!
You could have an ArrayList<EditText> object and a method which iterates over it and adds up the values. Something like:
public double getLapAverage()
{
int noOfCompletedLaps = 0;
double lapAve = 0;
double lapsTotal = 0;
for(EditText text : textBoxes)
{
if(text.getText().toString().length() > 0)
{
//psuedo code, and assuming text is numerical
lapsTotal += Double.parse(text.getText().toString());
noOfCompletedLaps++;
}
}
if( noOfCompletedLaps > 0)
{
lapAve = lapsTotal / noOfCompletedLaps;
}
return lapAve;
}
Maybe it would be better if you used an array instead of 10 different variables.
Then you can use a for statement and initialize them to 0, afterwords let the user fill the array and count how many are not zero.
Finally sum up all the array and divide by the count you previously calculated.
