Markers in Angular Maps component

23 Sep 202324 minutes to read

Markers are notes that are used to leave a message on the Maps. It indicates or marks a specific location with desired symbols on the Maps. It can be enabled by setting the visible property of the markerSettings to true.

Adding marker

To add the markers, the dataSource property of the markerSettings has a list of objects that contains the data for markers. Using this property, any number of markers can be added to the layers of the Maps. By default, it displays the markers based on the specified latitude and longitude in the given data source. Each data source object contains the following list of properties.

  • latitude - The latitude point which determines the X location of the marker.
  • longitude - The longitude point which determines the Y location of the marker.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { world_map } from './world-map';
@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',
    template:
    `<ejs-maps id='rn-container'  >
    <e-layers>
    <e-layer  [shapeData]= 'shapeData' [markerSettings] = 'markerSettings'></e-layer>
    </e-layers>
    </ejs-maps>`
})

export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public shapeData?: object;
    public markerSettings?: object;
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.shapeData = world_map;

import { world_map } from './world-map';
@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',
    template:

})

export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public shapeData?: object;
    public markerSettings?: object;
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.shapeData = world_map;
        this.markerSettings = [
            {
                visible: true,
                template: '<div id="marker4" class="markerTemplate">Europe' +

Marker shapes

The Maps component supports the following marker shapes. To set the shape of the marker, the shape property in markerSettings is used.

  • Balloon
  • Circle
  • Cross
  • Diamond
  • Image
  • Rectangle
  • Start
  • Triangle
  • VerticalLine
  • HorizontalLine

Rendering marker shape as image

To render a marker as an image in Maps, set the shape property of markerSettings as Image and specify the path of the image to imageUrl property. There is another way to render a marker as an image using the imageUrlValuePath property of the markerSettings. Bind the field name that contains the path of the image in the data source to the imageUrlValuePath property.

Customize marker shapes from data source

Bind different colors and shapes to the marker from data source

Using the shapeValuePath and colorValuePath properties, the color and shape of the marker can be applied from the given data source. Bind the data source to the dataSource property of the markerSettings and set the field names that contains the shape and color values in the data source to the shapeValuePath and colorValuePath properties.

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { world_map } from './world-map';
@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',
    template:
    `<ejs-maps id='rn-container' >

    <e-layer  [shapeData]= 'shapeData' [markerSettings] = 'markerSettings'></e-layer>
    </e-layers>
    </ejs-maps>`
})

export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public shapeData?: object;
    public markerSettings?: object;
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.shapeData = world_map;
        this.markerSettings = [{
            visible: true,
            shapeValuePath:'shape',

Setting value path from the data source

The latitude and longitude values are used to determine the location of each marker in the Maps. The latitudeValuePath and longitudeValuePath properties are used to specify the value path that presents in the data source of the marker. In the following example, the field name from the data source is set to the latitudeValuePath and longitudeValuePath properties.

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { world_map } from './world-map';
@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',
    template:
    `<ejs-maps id='rn-container'  >
    <e-layers>
    <e-layer  [shapeData]= 'shapeData' [markerSettings] = 'markerSettings'></e-layer>

dataIndex It represents the index of the data of the dragged marker in the marker data source.
latitude It represents the latitude coordinate point of the dragged marker.
longitude It represents the longitude coordinate point for the dragged marker.
markerIndex It represents the index of the marker setting.
layerIndex It represents the index of the layer in which the marker belongs.
name It represents the name of the event.
x It represents the horizontal location of the mouse pointer on the map when the drag action is performed.
y It represents the vertical location of the mouse pointer on the map when the drag action is performed.

The following example shows how to use marker drag events to customize the data of the drag and dropped marker in the marker data source.

Marker zooming

The Maps can be initially scaled to the center value based on the marker distance. This can be achieved by setting the shouldZoomInitially property in zoomSettings as true.

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { world_map } from './world-map';
@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',
    template:
    `<ejs-maps id='rn-container'  [zoomSettings] ='zoomSettings'>

            horizontalAlignment:'Near',
            shouldZoomInitially: true
    }
   }
}
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';

Marker clustering

Maps provide support to cluster the markers when they overlap each other. The number on a cluster indicates how many overlapped markers it contains. If zooming is performed on any of the cluster locations in Maps, the number on the cluster will decrease, and the individual markers will be seen on the map. When zooming out, the overlapping marker will increase. So that it can cluster again and increase the count over the cluster.

To enable clustering in markers, set the allowClustering property of markerClusterSettings as true and customization of clustering can be done with the markerClusterSettings.

import { Component, ViewEncapsulation, ViewChild, OnInit  } from '@angular/core';
import { world_map } from './world-map';
import { cluster } from './marker-location';;
@Component({
    selector: 'app-container',

Expanding the marker cluster

The cluster is formed by grouping an identical and non-identical marker from the surrounding area. By clicking on the cluster and setting the allowClusterExpand property in markerClusterSettings as true to expand the identical markers. If zooming is performed in any of the locations of the cluster, the number on the cluster will decrease and the overlapping marker will be split into an individual marker on the map. When performing zoom out, it will increase the marker count and then cluster it again.

Tooltip for marker

Tooltip is used to display more information about a marker on mouse over or touch end event. This can be enabled separately for marker by setting the visible property of tooltipSettings to true. The valuePath property in the tooltipSettings takes the field name that presents in data source and displays that value as tooltip text.
