google earth api for iphone

Question

I need google earth api for my iPhone application can somebody just provide idea or link?

Answer 1

Sorry, there is no public API for the Google Earth iphone/ipad application. http://www.google.com/mobile/earth/

You can however load custom kml into the application on both devices allowing for overlays, models, tours, etc by using 'My Maps' in a maps.google.com account.

To get your KML into IOS Google Earth

1. Go to Google Maps http://maps.google.com/

2. Choose "My Maps"

3. Choose "make a new map"

4. Click on "import".

5. Choose the kml/kmz file you wish to add.

6. On the iphone/ipad Google Earth Application choose "Layers"

7. Choose "My Maps".

8. Choose the map you created in step 2

Your imported kml/kmz data will now show in the IOS application just like in the full Google Earth Client.
