How to animate a marker smoothly with Google Maps?
I've written a small algorithm that animates markers' movement from one point to another. The algorithm looks like this in pseudocode: lat_delta = new_lat - old_lat; lng_delta = new_lng - old_lng; for(alpha=0; alpha < 1; alpha += 0.1) { lat = old_lat + (alpha * lat_delta); lng = old_lng + (alpha * lng_delta); update_marker(lat, l...

How to map/plot locations like "5000 block of Q ave" or "200 block of 7th St"?
Block sizes vary wildly, so I can't just always round down, but it doesn't seem like the google maps API understands these kinds of locations. I considered trying to go half way: for example, get the location of 5050 Q Ave for the 5000 block of Q, but blocks are not a regular interval either, nor is spacing on a block constant. I'm pre...
