Parameters<br />

of the screen, regardless of what section of the entire map image is currently displayed in the<br />

screen. In contrast, the virtual pixel space of the map image is constant at any particular zoom<br />

level, regardless of what part of the map is currently displayed in the screen. So, for example, if<br />

a map image is set to zoom level 3, the map image is composed of 4 tiles across and 4 tiles<br />

down. If each tile has dimensions of 512 by 256 pixels, then the dimensions of the entire map<br />

image are 2048 by 1024 pixels. This is referred to as the virtual pixel space of the map image,<br />

because only a subsection of the entire image may be displayed in the screen at any one time.<br />

Description<br />

Chapter 4: Legacy <strong>Map</strong> <strong>Tiling</strong> Interface<br />

Specifies the x coordinate of the map's point location.<br />

The map location is specified in terms of the units<br />

of the map coordinate system (for example, degrees<br />

or meters). You can determine the coordinate<br />

system of the map by calling the convertScreen-<br />

To<strong>Map</strong>Coord method and examining the returned<br />

<strong>Map</strong>Coordinate object. For more information, see<br />

convertScreenTo<strong>Map</strong>Coord on page 34 and<br />

<strong>Map</strong>Coordinate on page 43.<br />

Specifies the y coordinate of the map's point location.<br />

The map location is specified in terms of the units<br />

of the map coordinate system (for example, degrees<br />

or meters). You can determine the coordinate<br />

system of the map by calling the convertScreen-<br />

To<strong>Map</strong>Coord method and examining the returned<br />

<strong>Map</strong>Coordinate object. For more information, see<br />

convertScreenTo<strong>Map</strong>Coord on page 34 and<br />

<strong>Map</strong>Coordinate on page 43.<br />

Specifies the map zoom level.<br />

This parameter must be set to a value greater than<br />

or equal to the minLevel value and less than or<br />

equal to the maxLevel value for the named map.<br />

You can determine these values by calling the<br />

getDescription method and examining the returned<br />

<strong>Map</strong>Description object. For more information, see<br />

getDescription on page 29 and <strong>Map</strong>Description<br />

on page 40.<br />
