Hello everybody.
Since Google maps API key got an expensive cost than i can't afford. I figure out a solution to this.
Mapbox
Mapbox provide not just a vector street map also an satellital images.
www.Mapbox.com
1.- Register and obtain your API KEY.
2.- Once obtained your API KEY, open settings.txt and alter (imageMapsURL) line with the following code:
Code: Select all
imageMapsUrl = http://api.mapbox.com/v4/mapbox.satellite/{lon},{lat},{zoom}/{res}x{res}.png?access_token=INSERT_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE
This is a example on use...
Regards.
Manuel

Thank you very much for the Google alternative
To make it easier to see the code to enter in settings.txt
Code: Select all
imageMapsUrl = http://api.mapbox.com/v4/mapbox.satellite/{lon},{lat},{zoom}/{res}x{res}.png?access_token=INSERT_YOUR_API_KEY_HERE
I apologize for my English of translator

Hey,
I can't get this to work. What is the format of the data to be entered between the brackets of {lon},{lat},{zoom}/{res}x{res}?
Thanks.

The first post in this thread is pretty self explanatory.
