POI information using GetPoiByLocation

Post by Patricia »

Hello,

To get information from a poi at a specific coordinate, we are using the function GetPoByLocation(PoiLocation, null, null, [ResultField.POPUPINFO, ResultField.PHONENUMBER, ResultField.PHONENUMBER,ResultField.POINAME, XLocateService.ResultField.POITYPE], caller).

The PoiAddressResponse has a list of poiResultAdress, but for each poiResultAddress its property wrappedAdditionalFields is empty for each resultField value.

Is it posible obtain more detailed information for a poi in a specific location? (ie. Telephone number)

NOTE: When we used the old map control (Map&Guide versión 5) this control automatically show tooltips with information POI more detailed and also the icon of poi is more representative. (see attach)


Thanks.

Hi Patricia,

are you referring to the TOMTOM-POIs inside the map data, or do you want to integrate your custom addresses?

Hello Patricia,

are you using xServer-internet or your dedicated xServer? If you have your on-premise xServer you can change the POI-profiles to return addtional fields for xLoacte and xMap.
