11.3. Working with maps

We have demonstrated the start of the MapViewActivity our Wind and Waves application will use in the previous sections. There we covered the supporting classes and the handling of registering to receive location updates. With that structure in place, we now will focus on the map details themselves.

The MapViewActivity screen will look like the screen shot in figure 11.6, where several map Overlay classes are used on top of a MapView within a MapActivity.
