Addon - easyMap for pixelpost (photos on google maps)

[Ginger Rich]

Update: I just tagged a photo in Lisbon and it's dumped it in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea!

That's strange.
The Photo's I uploaded tagged with GPS coordinates work fine. they are handtagged by map (MS Live) and differs only a couple of metres with the google map.
No problem at all.

Hi,
as far as I see it, a minus (for western latitude?) is missing here. Same for Longitude.
I'm working on it

Uploaded 0.31.
Should work now with all coordinates. (here it does )

It was the the missing analysis of N/S/E/W...

my blog cant find the geo data. But Photoshop shows the GPS Data perfectly. Why ?

Hi Smartphoner,
you have a sample photo for me?

[Smartphoner]

Pls, send me an email at smartphoner at gmail dot com and I send you the photo.

I have this problem also:

Excellent - working nicely now, but I'd still like to be able to set the altitude of the map and have it display automatically in Satellite mode. I've seen this done before with Google Maps embedded in websites but how might you go about doing it here?

Hi,
smartphoner: email is out. The other errors should be caused by your servers configuration. This is for the update-checking inside the admin-area...

Ginger Rich: First, good it works now Second, sure you can alter these settings. Open the map.php inside the template folder and have a look at the code.

The interesting part is this one:

PHP Code:

if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
        var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map"));
        map.addControl(new GLargeMapControl());
                map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());
                map.addControl(new GOverviewMapControl());
                map.enableContinuousZoom();
                map.enableDoubleClickZoom(); 
        map.setCenter(new GLatLng({$latitude},{$longitude}), 13);
         var center = map.getCenter();
                    var center_y = center.y
                    var center_x = center.x 
                        GEvent.addListener(map, "mouseover", function(){
                            map.showControls();
                        });
                        GEvent.addListener(map, "mouseout", function(){
                            map.hideControls(); 
                        });
                        var infoTabs = [
                        new GInfoWindowTab("Standort"," <div style='text-align:center;'><img style='vertical-align:middle;' src='{$image}'><\div>")
                    ];
                    var marker = new GMarker(map.getCenter());
                    map.addOverlay(marker);
                    var windowOptions = {maxWidth: "95"}; 
                    GEvent.addListener(marker, "click", function() {
                    marker.openInfoWindowTabsHtml(infoTabs,windowOptions);
                    });
      } 


The 13 in

PHP Code:

map.setCenter(new GLatLng({$latitude},{$longitude}), 13); 


is the zoom level.
I'm sure I will add this as options later, but as I said... later

The complete reference can be found here: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/doc...reference.html

Nice one - cheers Andreas. The API docs has highlighted the code necessary to change the map into satellite or hybrid view but I can't see where to add it to the existing code. I'm sure I'll crack it after a bit of a play!
