Google Maps Javascript API

obby6 years ago

I'm having a bit of a dilemma. I have previously been able to use google maps tile server in creating custom maps.

I have used the following url https://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=s&hl=en&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}&s=Ga.

The problem is, this is not allowed by google as the only permitted ways of accessing the google maps services is through their APIs such as the one mentioned in the topic header.

My question is, does traccar support this API out of the box or does it need to be implemented? and how would one go about doing the implementation?

Traccar does not support Google Maps API for the mapping, so if you want it to be implemented you would need to rewrite a lot of code.

Which Google Maps license are you reading? Just want to note that to use Google Maps for tracking you would need to purchase premium license either way, which might allow you to use tile server directly (not sure).
