google maps static map polyline passing through lakes, river, mountains

Question

My program uses google maps directions for web Services to find a route between two points. The result is parsed and stored in variable.
This variable is then used to co

Answer 1

I figured out how to solve it in java.I adapted user geocozip javascript code. In my case, as no waypoints are provided, I just need one leg. So my parse function got this:

  List path = new ArrayList();
  for(int j = 0; j< numSteps; ++j){
    final JSONObject step = steps.getJSONObject(j);

    final JSONObject polyline = step.getJSONObject("polyline");
    final String polylinePoint = polyline.getString("points");


    List coordinates = decodePath(polylinePoint);
    for( int k = 0; k < coordinates.size(); ++k){
        path.add(coordinates.get(k));
    }
 } 

It is also necessary re-encode and then put in a format URL readable.

String newPath = path.createPolyLine(encodedPath);
String locationsContent="";
locationsContent = URLEncoder.encode(newPath, "UTF-8")
        .replaceAll("\\%40", "@")
        .replaceAll("\\+", "%20")
        .replaceAll("\\%21", "!")
        .replaceAll("\\%27", "'")
        .replaceAll("\\%28", "(")
        .replaceAll("\\%29", ")");
