The Vector layer allows you to place various objects with geographic coordinates on the map.
Following are the main vector elements that can be used on the vector layer:
- VectorPlacemark – An object attached to the geographical point. The placemarks have scale-independent geometry where coordinates are expressed in pixel coordinates and optional label (any UIElement). Typical usage: labels, icons, marks on the map. For more information, see Adding a Label.
- VectorPolyline – Similar to Polygon class, however it does not need to be a closed shape. The polyline is formed using geographical coordinates. Typical usage: paths, routes. For more information, see Adding a Polyline.
- VectorPolygon – Similar to Polyline class, but it draws a polygon, which is a connected series of lines that form a closed shape. The polygon is formed using geographical coordinates. Typical usage: borders, regions. For more information, see Adding a Polygon.
