xMap : show POI

Post by loic.caouen »

Id like to know how to display POI with xMap 1 and xMap 2.
I'm using leaflet and javascript.
I'd like to see supermarkets (like Auchan, Carrefour, Decathlon, Ikea) or car industries (Renault, Peugeot, ...).
Thanks for your help

Hello Loic,

in xServer 1 you can use the Geodatasource layer (xMap is connected to a database with the POI data provided by PTV).
https://svc-eu-n-test.cloud.ptvgroup.co ... /index.jsp
there are several examples dealing with the POI in LEAFLET.

For xServer 2 we do not provide the POI at that moment. This is subject for a future version and we might generate som kind of a feature layer for that.

Best regards,
Bernd

Hi Bernd,

Can you give some update regarding POI for xServer 2? Any further plans or is it already available?

Best regards,
Beat

Hi folks,

in the meantime several new technologies have been released. As part of the PTV Developer API (released in 2022) collection we offer a (cloud only) service geocoding-places-api which offers the two step visualization of POI also called "places":
  • Step 1: gather a list of PLACES within a certain (map) rectangle
  • Step 2: display them as a separate layer of business data on top of the standard background layer (including streets and town labels)
