I am working on a google maps project where I am populating the google maps with markers being read from a database (drawMarkers function). Along with that the google maps finds your current location and keeps refreshing it every couple of seconds to keep track of you on the map. My issue is that have a var closest which is also a function i am using the too find the closest marker then create directions to current locations from there. I did not know how to actually find the closest marker so i borrowed the code from another question from stack overflow and tried to adapt it to this project. I need help to get my closest function to find the closest marker and then to make it the destination in the direction service

Everything in this project is working properly except that closest function. but even then i have already tested the directionservice and even that is working too. I just need help making the destination in the direction service to be the closest marker to current location.

I am trying to display a map to a desktop app that will have controls outside of the map that will populate certain parts of the html, and js.
What i cannot figure out is once I have a route set up, get markers on the route which would be at a distance of say 500 mile from the start.
Basically if you want to drive 500 miles where will you get. I do not want a radius from the start, but 500 miles on the route that was chosen. I have basically tried piecing together different solutions I have found online, but cannot get it to work.
I know that 1000 is not going to = 500 miles, I am just trying to get anything to work.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to use the google maps api to find the midpoint of a route between two places. I dont want the geographic center but rather the midpoint along the driving distance. I am new to both Javascript and the google maps api so if you could include a demo or some code with your answer it would be very helpful. The end result would output the latitude and longitude and would represent something like what this website has: http://www.geomidpoint.com/meet/.
So far I have only calculated the geographic midpoint between certain points using the algorithm here: Calculate the center point of multiple latitude/longitude coordinate pairs
I wanted to test efficiencies between geographic center and route midpoint for some research
Example that calculates the midpoint of a route
Uses the v3 version of Mike Williams' epoly library.

I am developing an app using phone gap which have the functionality to draw route between two location on Google map but it some times draws the route on map and hides some times. My code is below:
var gmarkers = [];
function drawRoute(addressCurrent, addessDestination) {
console.log("Inside draw root");
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(lat, longi)
};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('mapDirection'), mapOptions);
var directionsService = new google.maps.DirectionsService();
var request = {
origin: addressCurrent,
destination: addessDestination,
travelMode: google.maps.DirectionsTravelMode.DRIVING
};
var polyline = new google.maps.Polyline({
path: [],
strokeColor: '#0000ff',
strokeWeight: 3
});
directionsService.route(request, function(response, status) {
if (status == google.maps.DirectionsStatus.OK) {
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
var route = response.routes[0];
startLocation = new Object();
endLocation = new Object();
var path = response.routes[0].overview_path;
var legs = response.routes[0].legs;
for (i = 0; i < legs.length; i++) {
if (i == 0) {
startLocation.latlng = legs[i].start_location;
startLocation.address = legs[i].start_address;
createMarker(legs[i].start_location, "start", legs[i].start_address);
}
endLocation.latlng = legs[i].end_location;
endLocation.address = legs[i].end_address;
var steps = legs[i].steps;
for (j = 0; j < steps.length; j++) {
var nextSegment = steps[j].path;
var dist_dur = "";
if (steps[j].distance && steps[j].distance.text) dist_dur += " " + steps[j].distance.text;
if (steps[j].duration && steps[j].duration.text) dist_dur += " " + steps[j].duration.text;
for (k = 0; k < nextSegment.length; k++) {
polyline.getPath().push(nextSegment[k]);
bounds.extend(nextSegment[k]);
}
}
}
polyline.setMap(map);
map.fitBounds(bounds);
console.log("Outside draw root");
createMarker(endLocation.latlng, "end", endLocation.address);
// == create the initial sidebar ==
}
});
}
function createMarker(latlng, label, html) {
// alert("createMarker("+latlng+","+label+","+html+","+color+")");
var iconImage;
if (label == "start") {
iconImage = new google.maps.MarkerImage("images/start.png",
// This marker is 30 pixels wide by 55 pixels tall.

// This marker is 30 pixels wide by 55 pixels tall.
new google.maps.Size(30, 55),
// The origin for this image is 0,0.
new google.maps.Point(0, 0),

new google.maps.Point(16, 47));
}
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({

This code is working well with ripple emulator but the problem with when its running on Android device
I'm using
google.maps.DirectionsRenderer({suppressMarkers: true})
to remove markers in Route. But this also removes waypoints markers in that route. So how to replace/remove 'A' and 'B' markers in a route?
Here is an example that replaces all the markers with custom markers.
Here is an example that just replaces the start and end markers with custom markers.
The custom directions renderer (renders the directions as native polylines and markers):
function RenderCustomDirections(response, status) {
if (status == google.maps.DirectionsStatus.OK) {
waypts = [];
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
var route = response.routes[0];
var summaryPanel = document.getElementById("directions_panel");
var detailsPanel = document.getElementById("direction_details");
startLocation = new Object();
endLocation = new Object();
summaryPanel.innerHTML = "";
detailsPanel.innerHTML = '<ul>';
// For each route, display summary information.
for (var i = 0; i < route.legs.length; i++) {
var routeSegment = i + 1;
summaryPanel.innerHTML += "<b>Route Segment: " + routeSegment + "</b><br />";
summaryPanel.innerHTML += route.legs[i].start_address + " to ";
summaryPanel.innerHTML += route.legs[i].end_address + "<br />";
summaryPanel.innerHTML += route.legs[i].distance.text + "<br /><br />";
}
var path = response.routes[0].overview_path;
var legs = response.routes[0].legs;
for (i=0;i<legs.length;i++) {
if (i == 0) {
startLocation.latlng = legs[i].start_location;
startLocation.address = legs[i].start_address;
startLocation.marker = createMarker(legs[i].start_location,"start",legs[i].start_address,"green");
} else {
waypts[i] = new Object();
waypts[i].latlng = legs[i].start_location;
waypts[i].address = legs[i].start_address;
waypts[i].marker = createMarker(legs[i].start_location,"waypoint"+i,legs[i].start_address,"yellow");
}
endLocation.latlng = legs[i].end_location;
endLocation.address = legs[i].end_address;
var steps = legs[i].steps;
for (j=0;j<steps.length;j++) {
var nextSegment = steps[j].path;
for (k=0;k<nextSegment.length;k++) {
polyline.getPath().push(nextSegment[k]);
bounds.extend(nextSegment[k]);
}
}
}
detailsPanel.innerHTML += "</ul>"
polyline.setMap(map);
map.fitBounds(bounds);
endLocation.marker = createMarker(endLocation.latlng,"end",endLocation.address,"red");
// == create the initial sidebar ==
makeSidebar();
} else alert(status);
}
The createMarker function:
function createMarker(latlng, label, html, color) {
var contentString = '<b>'+label+'</b><br>'+html;
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latlng,
draggable: true,
map: map,
icon: getMarkerImage(color),
shape: iconShape,
title: label,
zIndex: Math.round(latlng.lat()*-100000)<<5
});
marker.myname = label;
gmarkers.push(marker);
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent(contentString);
infowindow.open(map,marker);
});
return marker;
}
custom icon function:
function getMarkerImage(iconColor) {
if ((typeof(iconColor)=="undefined") || (iconColor==null)) {
iconColor = "red";
}
if (!icons[iconColor]) {
icons[iconColor] = {
url: "mapIcons/marker_"+ iconColor +".png",
// This marker is 20 pixels wide by 34 pixels tall.
size: new google.maps.Size(20, 34),
// The origin for this image is 0,0.
origin: new google.maps.Point(0,0),
// The anchor for this image is at 6,20.
anchor: new google.maps.Point(9, 34));
}
return icons[iconColor];
}
