How to Use Google Maps API to Show Google Maps in the .NET MAUI Maps (SfMaps)

The Syncfusion® .NET MAUI Maps control allows you to integrate Google Maps using the Google Maps API. Follow the steps below to implement this functionality.

Step 1:
Add the SfMaps control with the MapTileLayer to your layout. Use the MarkerTemplate to define the marker style and add markers with specified latitude and longitude coordinates.

XAML:

<map:SfMaps VerticalOptions="Center" HorizontalOptions="Center">
   <map:SfMaps.Layer>
       <map:MapTileLayer x:Name="layer">
           <map:MapTileLayer.MarkerTemplate>
               <DataTemplate>
                   <StackLayout HorizontalOptions="Start" VerticalOptions="Center">
                       <Image Source="pin.png" HeightRequest="20" WidthRequest="20"/>
                   </StackLayout>
               </DataTemplate>
           </map:MapTileLayer.MarkerTemplate>
           <map:MapTileLayer.Markers>
               <map:MapMarkerCollection>
                   <map:MapMarker Latitude="37.785834" Longitude="-122.406417"/>
                   <map:MapMarker Latitude="38.8833" Longitude="-77.0167"/>
                   <map:MapMarker Latitude="-15.7833" Longitude="-47.8667"/>
                   <map:MapMarker Latitude="21.0000" Longitude="78.0000"/>
                   <map:MapMarker Latitude="35.0000" Longitude="103.0000"/>
                   <map:MapMarker Latitude="-4.0383" Longitude="21.7586"/>
               </map:MapMarkerCollection>
           </map:MapTileLayer.Markers>
       </map:MapTileLayer>
   </map:SfMaps.Layer>
</map:SfMaps>

Step 2:
Set the URL template to the MapTileLayer using the URLTemplate property.

C#:

public MainPage()
{
   InitializeComponent();
   this.layer.UrlTemplate = "https://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=y&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}";
}
