I'm trying to solve the following issue:

I load a cartographic image, jpg of size 9472x6656 px and it covers a geographical rectangle area of the following lat&long: 42, 12.3   41.17, 13.88 (decimal degrees)

I'm loading using directly XAML with the following code:


01.<telerik:RadMap Height="472" Margin="0,52,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" x:Name="RadMap1"
02.               ZoomLevel="14"
03.               MinZoomLevel="6"
04.               MaxZoomLevel="21"
05.               Center="41.92481708629, 12.5"
06.               NavigationVisibility="Visible"
07.                        Cursor="ScrollAll"
08.               ZoomBarVisibility="Visible"
09.               CommandBarVisibility="Visible">
10.           <telerik:RadMap.Provider>
11.               <telerik:UriImageProvider x:Name="UriImageProvider1" GeoBounds="42.0, 12.3, 41.17, 13.88" Uri="Maps/myMap_Z13.jpg" />
12.           </telerik:RadMap.Provider>
13.           <telerik:InformationLayer Name="informationLayer">
14.               <telerik:MapPinPoint Name="mapPinPoint" telerik:MapLayer.Location="41.92481708629, 12.5"
15.                               Text="Cavalcavia" Cursor="Hand"
16.                               ImageSource="Maps/icon01.png"  MouseLeftButtonDown="MapPinPoint_MouseLeftButtonDown" >
17.                   <telerik:MapLayer.HotSpot>
18.                       <telerik:HotSpot X="0.5" Y="0.5" />
19.                   </telerik:MapLayer.HotSpot>
20. 
21.               </telerik:MapPinPoint>
22.           </telerik:InformationLayer>
23.       </telerik:RadMap>


I'm trying to understand how coordinates and image size are releated.
It seems that the coordinates I set for the image provider (GeoBounds) are not right, and image is positioned somewhere else.

Which is the right way to position an image using UriImageProvider? There is no documentation online on that.
I've tried to following the suggestion in other post (http://www.telerik.com/forums/uriimageprovider-questions)
setting bounds with the following code, but I get only an error:

01.BitmapImage oImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "\\" + UriImageProvider1.Uri.OriginalString));
02. 
03.            Size geoSize = this.RadMap1.GetGeoSize(new Location(0, 0), new Size(oImage.PixelWidth / 10, oImage.PixelHeight / 10));
04.            LocationRect view = new LocationRect(new Location(0, 0), new Location(-geoSize.Height, geoSize.Width));
05. 
06.            view.MapControl = this.RadMap1;
07.            this.RadMap1.GeoBounds = view;
08.            this.RadMap1.MinZoomLevel = view.ZoomLevel;
09.            this.RadMap1.SetView(view);

as the view.ZoomLevel property get an impossible number, something like: 243578438.

Hi Marco,

The GeoBounds property specifies the LocationRect structure as latitude, longitude, width and height. Where the width and height are specified the width and height of the rectangle given as distance unit used by RadMap control (kilometers or miles).

You can use the GeoBoundsNW and GeoBoundsSE properties instead of GeoBounds property. These properties allow to specify a geographical rectangle area via two locations (north-west and south-east coordinates).
