In my gradle, I included this dependency: implementation ':google-maps-services:0.18.0'Īt the moment, the code to retrieve the elevation is as follows: ElevationApi.getByPoint(new GeoApiContext.Builder().apiKey(API_KEY). src/main/java/com/google/maps/ElevationApi.java which I thought I could use to avoid messing around with http requests. However, we need to pass an API key and I do not want to pass this API key in the URL string and end up committing it to the remote repository. I then found the Google Maps Elevation API which we can make a request using a URL also. However, that API appears to be much too slow in generating a response. I proceeded to use the open elevation API using the following query string: String url = "" + latLng.latitude + "," + latLng.longitude I originally used Location#getAltitude() but then realised that does not give the elevation above sea level. I am attempting to retrieve the user's elevation based on a given latitude and longitude. so that you can more quickly solve the problem.I am creating an android app to record a user's activity using Google Maps SDK and the Google Play Services Location API. You’ll then also be able to ‘debug’ the program as it runs and get feedback explaining crashes etc.
At the same time, Android Studio also enables you to run your code, either through an emulator or through a piece of hardware connected to your machine. Java is needed to write the programs, the Android SDK is needed to make those programs run on Android and Android Studio has the job of putting it all together for you. Think of this as an extension to the Java code that allows it to run smoothly on Android devices and take advantage of the native hardware. It also contains the set of permissions the application can request to use device. A collection of XML elements and attributes is declared in a manifest file. At the same time, Android Studio will give you access to the Android SDK or ‘Software Development Kit’. Android framework API consists of the followings points: It is a core set of packages and classes. Android Studio is simply where you will write, edit and save your projects and the files that comprise said projects. If you choose Java, this will be installed separately on your machine. The programming language you will be using is either Java or Kotlin.
As an IDE then, Android Studio’s job is to provide the interface for you to create your apps and to handle much of the complicated file-management behind the scenes.
