google maps, multiple markers/polyline, cordinates from db

963323Sep 21 2012 — edited Oct 10 2012
hi all,

i have a buss tracking/time tabling project

i have 3 types of data on my db

1 stations with (station_id lat long) of station
2 i have bus information, (buss_id, busname .....)
3 i have events table for that stores when the buss will pass a station (buss_id, station_id, datetime)

first things first:
i am using apex.oracle.com.
i have multiple tables with lat and long info on different columns.

am trying to do 2 things,

1) i have the locations of bus stations on a table, as station_id, lat, long
-i want to show them all on the map my using markers
-i want to be able to filter the shown


2) i want to show the route of a selected bus on the map date/time filtering would be nice

my idea is to create a report page(do filter the info on the page) then when some how forward the data i have to the map pages

thanks in advance :)

but been busy dint have the time to post sorr :(

whell how to put poins(markers) on the map when lat and long are storen in your database :)

create an empty page
open edit page
paste the following to the "html header" content with out the ***** :)
*******
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=&API_KEY&sensor=true">
</script>
**********
paste the following to the "Page HTML Body Attribute" content with out the ***** :)
*******
onload="initialize()"
******
hit apply changes :)

on your page create a PL/SQL Dynamic Content
int he code section pas the following with out the **** again
**************
begin
your_procedure_name;
end;
*****************
when done go to object browser in apex under sql workshop
create procedure

now out procedure will have 2 sections 1) the sql query which will have the lat and long info and the id/name of the station
details of the sql query your query must give the results in the following way

GEOLOC ID TYPE
40.479484,49.728563 market 1
40.394697,49.818812 bla lba 2
40.412434,49.935188 nnnnnn 2
40.411119,49.934641 adadawdaw 1


the code for the procedure
**************************************
create or replace procedure "SHOW_ALL_STATIONS" is
cursor c_klt is
select **** this will be your query
"STATION.LAT"||','||"STATION.LON" geoloc,
"STATION.ID" AS ID,
"STATION.TYPE" AS TYPE
from "TRACKER.STATIONS"
order by "STATION.ID"; *******************

l_t number(3) := 0;

begin
htp.print('
<script type="text/javascript">
function initialize() {

var center_map = new google.maps.LatLng(40.390227,49.872385);
var mapOptions = {center: center_map,zoom: 10,mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), mapOptions);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker(
{position: center_map,map: map,animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP,title:"center of map!"});
');
for r_klt in c_klt
loop
htp.print('
var geocoder = new google.maps.LatLng('||r_klt.geoloc||''||');

var marker = new google.maps.Marker(
{position: geocoder,map: map,animation:google.maps.Animation.DROP,title:"Station ID: '||r_klt.ID||''||' Station type: '||r_klt.TYPE||''||'"});
');

l_t := l_t + 1;
end loop;
htp.print('
}
</script>
');

htp.print('
<body onload="initialize()" style="font-family: Arial;border: 0 none;">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width: 1000px; height: 600px"></div>
</body>
');

end;
********************************************************************************
