RadMap as zoom & pan custom image navigation?

[Marco]

Dear all,
is it possible to take advantage of the RadMap control abitily to zoom and move the underlying map within a fixed frame without using real geodata but having a custom jpg/png image as "map"?
Thanks for your support,
Marco.

Hi Marco,

You can use output of the Deep Zoom Composer with RadMap control using custom map provider. But there are few limitations on original image which is used in the DZC.

1. It must be square.
2. Width and height of the image must be a power of 2 (512x512, 10204x1024, 2048x2048).
3. Width and height of the image must be equal or greater than 512.

I’ve attached sample project which demonstrates how the output of the Deep Zoom Composer can be used with RadMap. I’ve got the picture with original size 2048x2048, prepared it using DZC and added results to the web project. The quite simple DeepZoomProvider is used to read and show these images.

All the best,
