NAME

Geo::GoogleMaps::MobileTool - Provide some functions useful for using GoogleMaps Static API on mobile sites

VERSION

This document describes Geo::GoogleMaps::MobileTool version 0.0.1

SYNOPSIS

    use Geo::GoogleMaps::MobileTool;

    #Convert longitude/latitude to GoogleMaps' pixel coordinate
    #on specified zoom level
    my ( $x, $y ) = lnglat2pixel( $lng, $lat, $zoom );

    #Convert GoogleMaps' pixel coordinate on specified zoom level
    #longitude/latitude
    my ( $lng, $lat ) = pixel2lnglat( $x, $y, $zoom );

    #Calcurate longitude/latitude from base-point's longitude/latitude
    #and delta pixels on specified zoom level
    my ( $tlng, $tlat ) = deltapixel2lnglat( $flng, $flat, $deltax, $deltay, $zoom );

    #Calcurate differential longitude/latitude value per pixel on
    #specified longitude/latitude and zoom level.
    my ( $dlng, $dlat ) = deltalnglat_perpixel( $lng, $lat, $zoom );

    #This module use Geo::Proj if it is installed, but you want nnot to use
    #it, call this module like this:
    use Geo::GoogleMaps::MobileTool qw(unableProj);

About GoogleMaps pixel coordinates

    Google pixel coordinate is specified as

    ( 0, 0 ) => ( 256 * 2 ** $zoom - 1, 256 * 2 ** $zoom - 1 )

    longitude/latitude -180.00000000, 85.05112878 are convert into
    ( 0, 0 ), and 179.99999999..., -85.05223877... are convert 
    into ( 256 * 2 ** $zoom - 1, 256 * 2 ** $zoom - 1 ).
