OpenLayers - Google Maps integration library. Create a map using OpenLayers 3 with the possibility to use Google Maps as base map and much more.
Synchronizes:
- Layers (Google, Vector)
- Vector features (style, geometry)
To use OL3-Google-Maps, first you need to load Google Maps API. It's important to load Google Maps API before OL3-Google-Maps. You also need to use your own Google Maps API key.
<script
type="text/javascript"
src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3&key=<YOUR_KEY>">
</script>
Then, load the OL3-Google-Maps script included in the tarball of the version you downloaded, which already includes OpenLayers so you don't need to load OpenLayers too. See the Releases section to download the latest version.
<script type="text/javascript" src="ol3gm.js"></script>
It is recommended to load the CSS file included in there as well.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="ol3gm.css" type="text/css" />
Then, in your existing OpenLayers application, activate OL3-Google-Maps. Here's a simple example:
var center = [-7908084, 6177492];
// This dummy layer tells Google Maps to switch to its default map type
var googleLayer = new olgm.layer.Google();
var map = new ol.Map({
// use OL3-Google-Maps recommended default interactions
interactions: olgm.interaction.defaults(),
layers: [
googleLayer
],
target: 'map',
view: new ol.View({
center: center,
zoom: 12
})
});
var olGM = new olgm.OLGoogleMaps({map: map}); // map is the ol.Map instance
olGM.activate();
