Draw accuracy circle using MyLocationOverlay


I am working on an Android application that shows a map with the user's location, and so far I am able to show the map online and offline. Now I want to know how I can draw an accuracy circle that appears with the marker in osmdroid using MylocationOverlay?

Here is my code:

public class AhmedActivity extends Activity 
{
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    private MapView mapView;
    private MapController mapController;
    private ScaleBarOverlay mScaleBarOverlay; 
    MyLocationOverlay myLocationOverlay = null;
    private LocationManager locationManager;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        // Initialize the location:
        locationManager = (LocationManager) this.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

        initializemap();

        /* My location overlay */
        /* Create a static Overlay showing a the current location and a compass */                  
        myLocationOverlay = new MyLocationOverlay(this, mapView);
        mapView.getOverlays().add(myLocationOverlay);
        myLocationOverlay.runOnFirstFix( new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                mapController.animateTo( myLocationOverlay
                                 .getMyLocation());
            }
        });

        //Add Scale Bar
        mScaleBarOverlay = new ScaleBarOverlay(this);                           
        ScaleBarOverlay myScaleBarOverlay = new ScaleBarOverlay(this);
        mScaleBarOverlay.setLineWidth(50); 
        mapView.getOverlays().add(myScaleBarOverlay);
    }

    /** (re-)enable location and compass updates */      
    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        myLocationOverlay.enableCompass();
        myLocationOverlay.enableMyLocation();
        //myLocationOverlay.followLocation(true);
        //myLocationOverlay.setDrawAccuracyEnabled(true);
        //myLocationOverlay.isDrawAccuracyEnabled();
    }  

    /** disable compass and location updates */        
    @Override      
    public void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        myLocationOverlay.disableMyLocation();
        myLocationOverlay.disableCompass();
    }

    public void initializemap()
    {
        mapView = (MapView) this.findViewById(R.id.mapView); 
        mapView.setTileSource(TileSourceFactory.MAPNIK); 
        mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true); 
        mapView.setMultiTouchControls(true); 
        mapController = this.mapView.getController();     
        mapController.setZoom(12);
        mapController.setCenter(new GeoPoint(15.610762,32.540345));
    }
}

Solution

  • Abo 7med,

    You need to extend Overlay for example

    public class AccuracyCircleOverlay extends Overlay {
        public AccuracyCircleOverlay() {}
        public void draw(Canvas canvas, MapView mapv, boolean shadow){
           super.draw(canvas, mapv, shadow);
           // your drawing code here
        }
    }
    

    You can add the overlay to your view as such:

    mapView.getOverlays().add(new AccuracyCircleOverlay());
