Adding markers with altitude #97

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
With the ability to set the altitude for your markers the google Earth library 
plugin 
(http://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/googleearth/) 
could show the correct altitude instead of groundclamping all objects.

It would be very good if the markers of 
http://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/markerclusterer 
handled altitude. Of course the altitude is not shown in google maps but when 
you use the GoogleEarth plugin the altitude is shown.

Right now we have to create a placemarks for each marker manually to correctly 
show altitude.

The issue is that Maps API LatLng and Marker objects have no methods for 
altitude, and this library is really about letting developers easily display 
the data created in Maps API in Earth than it is extending the Maps API to have 
more Earthlike functionality.  

I recommend you either load a KML Layer if you can, which will load display the 
data appropriately in v2/v3.
