This project is a desktop client for Google Maps using the Google Maps Static API. The client is developed in Java using Swing for the user interface. The features are as follows: - Zooming - Panning - Address Lookup - Path Calculation Between Two Points (shortest path) Project Updates ---------------- - Have to fix warnings in current build (not mandatory according to pliu) - Embeded map into app and added zoom in and zoom out buttons (March 18 2012) * Overall look of the app will not be handled until near completion * May add history funtionality to avoid constant querying of Google servers (time premitting) - Finally configured EGIT with MAC, need to set up on Windows - Configured EGIT with Windows === Update (March 26 2012) === - Map embeded without any major issues - Zooming implemented using JSlider - Panning implemented using JButtons - Way-Points partially implemented using markers - Full address search (street,city,province) implemented * Using DOM XML parsing to parse Google Geocode/Geolocation API === Update (March 29 2012) === - Map embeded without any major issues - Zooming implemented using JSlider - Panning implemented using JButtons - Way-Points partially implemented using markers - Full address search (street,city,province) implemented * Using DOM XML parsing to parse Google Geocode/Geolocation API - Closest address match implemented using JComboBox * Using DOM XML parsing to parse Google Geocode API to pull list of matching address - Overall look of application remade - Implemented Markers using JButtons === Update (March 30 2012) === - Map embeded without any major issues - Zooming implemented using JSlider - Panning implemented using JButtons - Way-Points partially implemented using markers - Full address search (street,city,province) implemented * Using DOM XML parsing to parse Google Geocode/Geolocation API - Closest address match implemented using JComboBox * Using DOM XML parsing to parse Google Geocode API to pull list of matching address - Overall look of application remade - Implemented Markers using JButtons - Added routes between markers (using closest known point to lat/lon) * parse (using DOM) Google Direction Service API for encoded path points Things Left: - ***All features have been added***
