Android tap on map and get coordinates

Question

Hi guys I am trying to make an app that once the user taps on a map it gets the coordinates of that specific point.

Among others i have also read that: Get coordina

Answer 1

Should be trivial with a little bit of math. You can use getLatitudeSpan() and getLongitudeSpan() to get the extents of the visible map, and getMapCenter() to see the center point. Just map that to the coordinates of the touch event.

EDIT: Mark, as always, has an even more elegant solution.
