Change Camera Zoom based on Radius Google Maps iOS SDK

Question

I am working on an app that displays certain markers based on a radius around your current location. The radius is between 100 - 5000 meters. I change the radius with an U

Answer 1

Here's a simpler solution for getting the bounds of a GMSCircle. It doesn't rely on MapKit and avoids the two calls that change the camera position (moveCamera and animateToLocation)

import GoogleMaps

extension GMSCircle {
    func bounds () -> GMSCoordinateBounds {
        func locationMinMax(_ positive : Bool) -> CLLocationCoordinate2D {
            let sign: Double = positive ? 1 : -1
            let dx = sign * self.radius  / 6378000 * (180 / .pi)
            let lat = position.latitude + dx
            let lon = position.longitude + dx / cos(position.latitude * .pi / 180)
            return CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: lat, longitude: lon)
        }

        return GMSCoordinateBounds(coordinate: locationMinMax(true),
                               coordinate: locationMinMax(false))
    }
}

After adding this file to your project, all you have to do is:

let update = GMSCameraUpdate.fit(myCircle.bounds())
myMap.animate(with: update)

where myCircle and myMap are replaced by the actual circle and map.
