MapView control

Relevant categories: Microsoft .NET

MapVeiw is a custom web server control that according to the address shows the exact place on the map. This server control is integrated with Google Maps API for plotting maps. Every time an address is received MapVeiw calculates the longitude and longitude of the place and then using Google Maps API it plots the place on the map and shows a note on the exact place.

Google Maps API enables everyone to use Google Maps on their web pages, but an important note is that every domain needs a Google Maps API key which is presented in the Google Maps API site. So For using MapVeiw on a new application you first need to register for a Google Maps API key.

MapVeiw sever control can be customized according to the key, address and the text to be shown when it finds the place.
