SfMap and Google Maps

Question

It seems to be implied here and there in your docs and on your website that Google Maps can be used in SfMap ( not having to use javascript to call their api's directly ). I can't, however, find any examples.

Can you provide a small example?

Thanks

Hi Sheldon,The Syncfusion
Blazor Maps component supports
various online maps, such as
OpenStreetMap, Bing Maps, TomTom,
ESRI and MapBox.
These maps are
render through their tile server URL which provides tile images to render
the map in the
component. The tile server URL must follow the below format.https://<domain_name>/maps/basic/{z}/{x}/{y}.png”${z}” - It represents zoom factor
(level).”${x}” - It indicates tile image
x-position (tileX).”${y}” - It indicates tile image
y-position (tileY).However, to render the Google Maps in the
Syncfusion Maps component,
their tile server URL must be similar to the link below. The tile server URL
must be set in the “UrlTemplate”
property in the “MapsLayer” tag to render the online map.https://mt.google.com/vt/lyrs=m&x=tileX&y=tileY&z=levelWe have created a sample to
demonstrate the same and it can be found from the below link.https://blazorplayground.syncfusion.com/LthKjFXCfVPddrplPlease let us know if you

SfMap and Google Maps both offer great mapping solutions, but they cater to different needs. Google Maps is widely recognized for its comprehensive features and global coverage, while SfMap provides tailored functionalities. For developers and businesses, having 5 star Google reviews can enhance visibility and build trust for apps utilizing these mapping tools.
