Android : Live Traffic Events As Icons On A Map
Jun 21, 2009
I am developing a prototype application which features basic navigation (updating of own location on the map) and displays live traffic events as traffic sign icons on the map. The traffic events will be fetched from a server over a UDP connection. (I haven't implemented this as I don't have the traffic message specs yet).
The idea is to display traffic events in real-time and also delete them when they have expired. I figured out that what I need for this is one or more ItemizedOverlays with dynamic items. I found this post,
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa...
which seems to be similar to my application. So the circular process is:
1. fetch traffic data from server
2. populate an ItemizedOverlay object containing traffic events
3. update the map accordingy when the items in the overlay have changed
Apparently in the MapView (or Map Activity?) I need some sort of a listener for changes in the ItemizedOverlay object. What is the best practice for doing this?

I would do this: [URL] .... (created with paint)
Because I get to edit files, but I am looking for a long time without finding how to put ALL the icons on the left, and keep only the icons on the right as in the picture.

When using Google Maps, sometimes I can get Traffic info & sometimes I cannot get Traffic info. When its working, in Google Maps, I do: Menu; Map mode; Traffic. I can then see the Traffic info on the map. If I then do Menu; Map mode again, I can see the green check mark next to Traffic. When its not working, when I go back to Map Mode the 2nd time, the green check mark is still on Map. It is not on Traffic.

I notice that the home screen is customizable but not the four applications on the bottom, the call, email, browser and applications. How would I change those icons with different icons? Mainly the email and browser. How do I turn off or at least severly limit the data that goes to and from my phone. I do not have wireless and am just a bit paranoid about going over my data limit. I got the phone from work and this is my first smartphone so I am a bit nervous about anything I do on it.

Just back from a very nice vacation in Iceland, and await the data roaming bill from my phone company. I hope for the best having limited my traffic as much as possible, but I want to know in advance. I used the very nice app NetCounter but it didn't measure roaming data traffic at all.So I want to build my own app measuring just roaming data traffic. I have a few booleans to start with ( NetworkInfo.IsRoaming() & TelephonyManager. isNetworkRoaming() ), but I'm not sure how to measure the traffic if true.So the question is: How do I measure data traffic while roaming? (Something like API level 8 TrafficStats functionality is what I'm after, but for API level 3). The used SmartPhone is Samsung Galaxy i7500 (Android 1.6)

For HTTP debugging purposes, I'm try to set up Fiddler to capture and display the HTTP traffic from my application. I've installed Fiddler2 and have tried various configuration options to get it to recognize the HTTP traffic.
I've set the "http-proxy" arg to -http-proxy 127.0.01:8888 in the Eclipse Target-Additonal Emulator Command Line Options. (I've even tried 10.0.2.2). I've also run the emulator from the command line, I start Fiddler and then my application. My issue is that Fiddler is not recognizing any of the HTTP traffic.
I'm looking for help in figuring out how to configure Fiddler2 and the Android Target to have Fiddler capture the HTTP traffic .

I'm interested in whether there is a way to monitor HTTP(S) traffic on an Android phone? What I would like to do is to be able to retrieve all URLs that have been accessed on the phone's browser. I thought that there would be a browser intent for that, but have not seen anything - given I'm green, maybe I just did not know where to look?
I followed the question and answer here, but it works only for hyperlinks which were clicked by the user, however I need to catch all URLs - including the ones typed in by the user. Basically I need to know about every single URL that was opened in the web browser.
Can I register some kind of a handler with the browser?

I have set up the proxy(10.0.2.2) and port(8888) of Emulator and it can connect to the net. But the Fiddler can just get traffic of the Browser in Emulator, it can not get anything of the Market. i.e. if I open an page by the Browser, there will be some traffics in Fiddler and if I go into the Market to find some applications, then Fiddler will show nothing. How can I make it work?

I'd just like to sing the praises of the RAC Traffic app. It's bloody useful, especially for those who have a commute along the British motorways. Last week, I set off towards the M40 in Warwickshire and hit a bit of traffic. Unusual for 7:35am along that route. The traffic started building up and I started to panic in-case I was late for work. So, I got the Wildfire out, loaded the RAC Traffic app and had a look. 90 minute delays on the M40 Southbound. As I was going North, I stayed in the traffic jam. Needless to say, where the roundabout was that split the North and South traffic there was absolutely no traffic going my way.
Extremely useful as I stopped panicking and just listened to Last FM (via Bluetooth). It happened again this weekend, too! We were going on a trip (around 45 minute drive) and we hit traffic. Got the phone out, looked at the traffic, and managed to use an alternate route through the residential areas using my SatNav. I'd strongly recommend this application to anyone who has to do a bit of driving/has a lengthy commute.

I have a MapActivity. If it's set to an appropriate location and zoom level to see traffic none is shown after it's first created until you interact with the map (click on it, drag, etc) at which point traffic shows up. Naturally I want traffic to show up without any user interaction after it loads but I've been unable to figure out how to trigger it. Any ideas?

Does the Google Navigation program take traffic conditions into consideration when calculating the route?In other words, if I can get to my destination in 20 mins via Hwy A and 25 mins via Hwy B, but Hwy has an accident, will it route me to Hwy B instead?If so, how accurate/real time are the traffic conditions?I have Garmin on Windows Mobile now and find that it's saved me a few times by giving me a route that it wouldn't otherwise give me if the primary route wasn't backed up.

I'm wondering if there's an app out there that can track traffic patterns/route times. I know that those Runners apps. can track speed/time to destination, but I'm interested in being able to track which highways/roads have the most/least amounts of traffic on which days and at which times, or which roads cause you to wait the longest at certain lights, so that I can know in advance (the app. would alert me which route to take on which day according to data collected over time). I've always been kind of fascinated by traffic patterns, but I'm also a fairly focused driver, so I don't generally look at times it has taken me on different days. You can feel like taking a back way one day, but does it really save you any time with all the lights you hit instead?

I have a Motorola Droid 2. Is there is way in Google Maps to quickly toggle traffic on and off? And a quick way to clear the map?
On my old Palm I could just hit # to toggle traffic on and off. But on the Droid I have to hit Menu, then layers, then traffic. The same to clear the map. Even opening the keyboard on the Droid2 and hitting alt # does not work.
