Mapbox arrive at got created a stunning demo of a video of basis taken from satellite embedded inside an interactive map.
Back inwards March Mapbox released a video of a map containing video captured past times Skybox's SkySat-1. In the Mapbox video you lot tin run into that the SkySat-1 video is embedded on a map then that the user tin zoom in addition to pan into the video every bit you lot tin alongside whatever interactive slippy map.
Of flat I wanted to assay in addition to run into if this was possible using the Google Maps API. My get-go unsmooth (and rubbish) endeavour to assay mapping Skybox's video of the Burj Khalifa was Satview. This map exactly places a div chemical part containing the video over the map. So if you lot pan the map the video won't motility alongside the map.
Mapbox's novel map truly uses an overlay to embed the video on the map then that it scales in addition to moves every bit you lot zoom in addition to pan the map. Video inwards Mapbox shows satellite imagery of Maryland, shot from infinite inwards January, on peak of the static Mapbox satellite imagery. Not entirely tin you lot pan in addition to zoom into the video on the map you lot tin rotate it every bit well.
Now that's impressive!
