Integration opf maps into Android or IOS

Post by Bernd Welter »

Hi community,
I've been asked for some recommendation about how to integrate PTV maps into a mobile device application via android or IOS. Here's what I can tell:
  • First of all both platforms offer native map widgets (Apple map widget / Google map widget). You could then create a custom tile provider source and connect to PTV APIs such as PTV xMap2 or PTV Developer Raster Maps.
  • Second you could use a third party widget such as MapLibre. This is a specific fork of Mapbox that is running with a BSD license. This approach supports vector- and raster(bitmap) maps. Again this is based on some tiled source approach.
Best regards and thanks to my contributors Andreas and Sebastian for their hints!
