<p class=MsoNormal>Guys,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have reached a point where I really need help. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am trying to connect to a published web service that is
configured like GoogleMaps. They have given me instruction of the url philosophy
and have explained that the Urls will look very similar to Google’s.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Instructions were…..<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'> * The x, y,
and z are the image location and zoom level, with the same values used by
Google or Bing (ie, standard slippymap tile co-ordinates).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'> * The nml
parameter is the NearMap layer, and can be one of:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>
o Vert for PhotoMap 'Vertical' images<o:p></o:p></span></p>

o Map for NearMap StreetMap images<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>
o Dem for terrain images<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'> * The hl is
the Host Language; only English is currently supported<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'> * The s
parameter is ignored; it can be used as with Google Maps, to work around issues
in FireFox's caching<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>The equivalent Google Maps URL

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>NearMap also support this

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>In fact, NearMap have a set of
hostnames that match Google's, so the only change needed is to the domain:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>These URLs will get the latest
NearMap images. To give a specific date, add the nmd parameter, with the

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>You should be able to replace
google with nearmap in most Google image URLs and get an equivalent
image. However, there are some differences:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'> * The
recently introduced Google lyrs parameter isn't yet supported.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'> * NearMap
doesn't have a layer with terrain data and maps combined, like Google.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'> * The NearMap
servers will deduce the type of image from the URL path (/kh or /mt), the
Google-compatible v parameter (if supplied) or the nml parameter. The nml
parameter overrides the others.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#4F81BD'>To open the NearMap map page
with a given location shown, use a URL like:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So I looked in OL lists etc and found the page about TMS. <a
href="http://trac.openlayers.org/wiki/UsingCustomTiles">http://trac.openlayers.org/wiki/UsingCustomTiles</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>But I have never done this before and I managed to get the
following test app going but with no luck on the nearmaps data layer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://demos.numaps.com.au/nearmap_test.html">http://demos.numaps.com.au/nearmap_test.html</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It seems to be navigating the tiles correctly but they are
all broken (pink). I must be doing something very wrong because if you copy the
location (firebug) of the Url into browser it works. <a
href="http://www.nearmap.com/?x=69&y=186&z=10&hl=en&nml=Vert&s=Galileo">http://www.nearmap.com/?x=69&y=186&z=10&hl=en&nml=Vert&s=Galileo</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>But I also do not really understand why as this is getting a
whole map area of tiles and not a single tile?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Can anyone who has done this before have a quick look at my
code for this example. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Its probably very simple I have tried everything I can think
of with no luck.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Cheers, Brad….<o:p></o:p></p>
