Google Map Marker pulse animation?

Question

I wonder is there any way to make Google Map Marker to pulse? Like here: http://plebeosaur.us/etc/map/

Answer 1

SVG here can make wonders, if you don't mind IE/Edge compatibility.

I've created this blue pulsating dot (adapted from this one).

Warning: animation not playing on Edge 18 (but should in Edge 75).

Simply replace the image in the marker properties:

var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
  //...
  icon: {
    url: 'path/to/your/image.svg',
    //...
  },
});
