geographic map

Pick an area from a Geographic-Map

Note: The geograpic data in the map come from openstreetmap servers and is cached on the android device. You need an internet connection to download the data.

You can reach the Geographic-Map via

• the "map symbol" in the Gallery-View
• the "location picker" in the Filter-View
• from any app that support intents with "geo:"- uris (VIEW/SEND/SENDTO/SEND_MULTIPLE/PICK)

Features:

• The geografic map shows markers at places where photos were taken.
• The numer in the green marker indicates how many photos belong to the marker.
• Blue markers represent selected photos if Gallery-View is in multiselection mode or if SEND_MULTIPLE.
• If you tap on a marker the marker becomes red to indicate current selection and a photo belonging to the marker is displayed in the lower right corner.
• Tap on the photo to hide it.
• If you tap somewhere in the map the "zoomin"- and "zoomout"-buttons become visible to change the map detail level.
• If you double tap somewhere in the map the map zooms in one level.
• If you swipe left/right/up/down you can change the current map area
• The "Zoombar" below the map can be used to change the current zoom level.
• The "Ok" button takes the current visible map area/zoomlevel to update
  • which photos are visible if called from the Gallery-View
  • lat/lon values in the Filter-View if called from there
  • return the current position (red marker) if called from external app via "Pick geo:"
• The "Cancel" button or the back button closes the map without affecting the calling activitry.

If you use the Geografic-Map as a "geo:" picker you can

• tap on a green/blue marker to select the geo-location belonging to that marker (the marker becomes red)
• tap somewhere in the map where no green/blue marker exists to select a place with no photo.
