Class BingService

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ImageLoader

    public class BingService
    extends WebMercatorTileService
    The Bing tile service.

    Note that Bing requires a key, which you can generate here. This service follows the documentation for the Imagery API

    In order for the BingService to work correctly, you must use the URL fragment provided by Get Imagery Metadata. In particular, you need to instantiate a BingService with a URL template such as http://ecn.subdomain.tiles.virtualearth.net/tiles/r${code}.jpeg?key=YOUR_BING_KEY&g=129&mkt={culture}&shading=hill&stl=H .

     String baseURL = "http://ecn.subdomain.tiles.virtualearth.net/tiles/r${code}.jpeg?key=YOUR_BING_KEY&g=129&mkt={culture}&shading=hill&stl=H;"
     TileService service = new BingService("Road", baseURL);
    
     // you may add to a map:
     map.addLayer(new TileLayer(service));
    
     // or do some hard work to fetch the tiles
      Collection tiles = service.findTilesInExtent(viewportExtent,
              scale, false, 128);
     
    The "${code}" value will be substituted by the tile code (the quadkey) when the BingTile creates its URL.
