In this blog post, I will show you how to create bounded tile layers in Bing Maps AJAX Control Version 7 and the Bing Maps for Windows Store Apps control.īing Maps supports tile layers in all of its map controls and has done so for a long time. Otherwise you will end up with a lot of extra requests being made to your tile service for nothing. If this is the case then you will want to limit the loading of tiles in your app to that area. Depending on the type of data you are displaying as a tile layer, you may find that it is localized to a small part of the world. If the map layer disappears at high zoom levels, try lowering the upper end of the range.įinally, click Create item, or Save if you are editing the settings after creating the item.Tile layers are a great way to visualize a lot of data on a map and still have good performance. If the map server supports very detailed views, you can increase the upper end of the range up to a maximum of 25. Most servers support the range 1 to 19, and in general you should not need to change the lower end value of the range. Setting an incorrect range can make your map load slowly or not show up at all. This should be the range for which the map server can produce tiles.

The server may automatically specify another format. It is strongly recommended that you choose image/png if possible.

WMS maps are reliable and easy to use, with many cities and municipalities having their own WMS servers with maps for different needs.

To use these types of maps, you need to connect to the server and choose the map layer or layers that you want to use. WMS (=Web Map Service) is a geographic information server (GIS) database that contains different map layers.
