How to visualize Bing Maps in the .NET MAUI Maps (SfMaps)?
In the Syncfusion .NET MAUI Maps control, you can visualize Bing Maps.
To add the Bing Maps, you must set the UrlTemplate property of the MapTileLayer in the SfMaps.
For Bing Maps, a subscription key is needed to request tiles. You can create your own Bing Maps key by following the steps mentioned in this link and replace “YOUR_KEY” in the following code sample with the actual key before passing it to the top-level GetBingUrl method, which returns the URL in the required format.
Set the URL returned to the UrlTemplate property of the MapTileLayer.
C#:
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
SfMaps map = new SfMaps();
MapTileLayer tileLayer = new MapTileLayer();
this.GenerateBing(tileLayer);
map.Layer = tileLayer;
this.Content = map;
}
private async Task GenerateBing(MapTileLayer tileLayer)
{
tileLayer.UrlTemplate = await MapTileLayer.GetBingUrl("https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/V1/Imagery/Metadata/RoadOnDemand?output=json&uriScheme=https&include=ImageryProviders&key=YOUR_KEY") + "?name=bingName";
}
