Hi,

How can I draw a line between 2 locations following the great circle?
(At the moment, i am planning to add multiple line segments instead of a nicely single curved line.)

Thanks for your assistance,
Henri

Hi Henri,

As I understand you want to plot a linestring representing the great circle route between two points rather than simply a straight line on the map. Here is shown how to make the great circle calculations to gain an array of LatLong points http://www.beginningspatial.com/plotting_geography_linestrings_google_maps_and_virtual_earth. You
can use this array to draw the desired line as it is shown here http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/map-adding-map-shapes.html.
