MapViewRepresentations.ByBoundingRectangle Property

The map view as a minimum bounding rectangle (ViewByBoundingRectangle object). A minimum bounding rectangle represents the geographic extent of the MapViewRepresentations object, expressed in latitude and longitude coordinates that represent the southwest and northeast corners.


Public ByBoundingRectangle As ViewByBoundingRectangle


[C#]

public ViewByBoundingRectangle ByBoundingRectangle;

Remarks

  • The shape defined by the ViewByBoundingRectangle object is not a true rectangle on the sphere of the Earth. The shape is actually rounded and three dimensional, and MapPoint Web Service interprets it as such.

  • For information about map views, see Working with Map Views.

Example

[Visual Basic]

'Use the best map view to get a map of the found location
Dim findSpec As New FindSpecification()
findSpec.DataSourceName = "MapPoint.NA"
findSpec.InputPlace = "Seattle, WA"

Dim foundResults As FindResults
foundResults = findService.Find(findSpec)

Dim myViews(0) As ViewByBoundingRectangle
myViews(0) = foundResults.Results(0).FoundLocation.BestMapView.ByBoundingRectangle

Dim mapSpec As New MapSpecification()
mapSpec.DataSourceName = "MapPoint.NA"
mapSpec.Views = myViews

Dim mapImages() As MapImage
mapImages = renderService.GetMap(mapSpec)



[C#]

//Use the best map view to get a map of the found location
FindSpecification findSpec  = new FindSpecification();
findSpec.DataSourceName = "MapPoint.NA";
findSpec.InputPlace = "Seattle, WA";

FindResults foundResults = findService.Find(findSpec);

ViewByBoundingRectangle[] myViews = new ViewByBoundingRectangle[1];
myViews[0] = foundResults.Results[0].FoundLocation.BestMapView.ByBoundingRectangle;

MapSpecification mapSpec = new MapSpecification();
mapSpec.DataSourceName = "MapPoint.NA";
mapSpec.Views = myViews;

MapImage[] mapImages;
mapImages = renderService.GetMap(mapSpec);
