Re: Map integration in a Roku scenegraph Project

Perhaps using https://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/Poster ?
multiple ones - one image for the map and others on top of it for say moving airplane and such

Re: Map integration in a Roku scenegraph Project

*note different map servers will require specific parameters passed to them in the http: url
*m.lonDPP# and m.latDPP# are degrees per pixel dependent on the zoom level
