Request Syntax
client.get_static_map( BoundingBox='string', BoundedPositions='string', Center='string', CompactOverlay='string', GeoJsonOverlay='string', Height=123, Key='string', Padding=123, Radius=123, FileName='string', ScaleBarUnit='Kilometers'|'KilometersMiles'|'Miles'|'MilesKilometers', Style='Satellite', Width=123, Zoom=... )
string
Takes in two pairs of coordinates, [Lon, Lat], denoting south-westerly and north-easterly edges of the image. The underlying area becomes the view of the image.
Example: -123.17075,49.26959,-123.08125,49.31429
string
Takes in two or more pair of coordinates, [Lon, Lat], with each coordinate separated by a comma. The API will generate an image to encompass all of the provided coordinates.
Example: 97.170451,78.039098,99.045536,27.176178
string
Takes in a pair of coordinates, [Lon, Lat], which becomes the center point of the image. This parameter requires that either zoom or radius is set.
Example: 49.295,-123.108
string
Takes in a string to draw geometries on the image. The input is a comma separated format as follows format: [Lon, Lat]
Example: line:-122.407653,37.798557,-122.413291,37.802443;color=%23DD0000;width=7;outline-color=#00DD00;outline-width=5yd|point:-122.40572,37.80004;label=Fog Hill Market;size=large;text-color=%23DD0000;color=#EE4B2B
string
Takes in a string to draw geometries on the image. The input is a valid GeoJSON collection object.
