Hi,
check out gpsdrive.
They have quite a lot on calculating and downloading tiles not just from
google.

Hi,
It turns outs that stitching together Google Static Maps images is indeed in
violation of the Google Maps ToS. See 10.2 of:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/terms.html
Does anyone happen to have any other ideas of how to achieve this goal
without violating the ToS? My guess is that it's no
OK, this has been pretty straightforward (thanks for the tips, Gregor). The
one issue I'm having is calculating the latitude value of the tiles' centers
while accounting for the change in distance per latitude degree while
traveling north-south. The code I'm using now calculates a "latitude

The customer wasn't up for it when I presented it to him, so I have

Has anyone had a chance to try this out? Gregor, any luck with getting R&D
funding, by any chance? If not, I might go ahead and take a crack at it,
since it is something our map will eventually need.
Thanks,

The google scales are given in the open layers code, you should be able
to calculate it easily.

Great, this sounds promising, at the very least. Many thanks for all the
input on this; Gregor, definitely let us know how it goes if you're able to
swing the development on it. This seems like something that might be of
interest to many folks.
Thanks,
Tom

Hey, nice!
I do see 1 issue with some uses: "640x640 is the largest image size
allowed" So you may have to figure up, say, 4 references points within
the image and make those queries to get the ima
How about this?

To my knowledge, the GM API and the OL API over top of it do not expose
enough information to fetch the URLs. GM changes their naming scheme now
and then, so any su
Hi,
I'm trying to give users the option of saving/printing a map, and I'm
currently working off the "tile stitching" code to create a composite image
