Bing Maps


Bing is a dynamic map generating system sponsored by the Microsoft. Street level maps exist for North America and Europe. Highway level maps are used for the rest of the world. You must use the latest javAPRS version to access these maps.

The map is specified using the lat/lon of the center of the map (degrees) and the zoom level (1=far away; 19=closest).

<PARAM name="mapCenterLon" value="80.3245">
<PARAM name="mapCenterLat" value="24.2454">
<PARAM name="BingZoom" value="12">

Bing maps, as with javAPRS, may only be used for personal and noncommercial purposes. The width must be between 80 and 900 pixels and the height must be between 80 and 834 pixels.
