Multimap API V1.2 JavaScript Example

Searching - Pagination *new*

The Multimap API now allows you to make a search of the records that have been geocoded and stored in the table of addresses that we provide as part of your your Multimap service, and to display on a map the locations that the table contains.

You should manage your table of addresses through Multimap's Client Zone extranet portal; please see your Multimap service documentation for details of how to use this.

This example focuses on pagination through search results for a spatial search. Spatial searches are based on location (such as 'Where's my nearest...?' or 'What's within the area...?').

What You Should See

If you view this in your browser you should see a Multimap draggable map centered on St James Ave, Boston, Massachusetts, USA, at zoom factor 15.

To the right of the map is a column of data entry fields into which you can enter selection criteria to search your data and 'page through' the results.

• Searches are performed, on a data source of points of interest, for the nearest locations to the address ("02116, USA").
• Results are restricted to within a ten-mile radius of the address.
• You can select the number of search results that are presented on each page.
• After your initial search, you can 'page through' the result set by selecting a page from the "Go to page:" drop-down list.

When you click on the "Search" button or choose a different page of results, the map changes and shows all matching search results on the map as markers; a list of their locations appears below the map. (If no results are found, or if any other problem occurs, the API displays a message to this effect.)

When you click on any of the results in the list, its marker on the map expands to show its details in an info box.
