Call specific map view via URL

Get marker data XML for specified map area



Call specific map view via URL

You can call a specific map view by specifying latitude, longditude, and zoom values in the URL. For example:

http://www.accessibilitymapr.com/index.php?lat=-37.8339461566052&lng=145.06484985351562&zoom=11

Latitude and longditude values must be in decimal format, but any number of decimal places is permitted. 'Zoom' takes integers between 1-19; larger numbers bring the map view closer to street level.




Get marker data XML for specified map area

Marker data for a specified map area can be accessed in XML format via the following URL:

http://accessibilitymapr.com/loadallmarkers.php?north=90&south=-90&east=180&west=-180

'North' and 'south' take latitude values representing the north and south edges of the map area to be accessed; 'east' & 'west' take longditude values representing the east and west edges of the map area to be accessed.

Below is an example of the xml output:

<markers>
<marker ID="71" title="San Diego State University" address="5225 Campanile Dr, San Diego, CA 92115, USA" lat="32.772884" lng="-117.071648" info="All buildings are accessible with at least one push-activated automatic door opener (though sometimes you have to really thwack it to activate it), at least one elevator (though the music building one is broken about 40% of the time) and every building has some sort of ramp access, though Love Library is a complete labyrinth.
