Hi all,

I am trying to embed static maps into a Windows Mobile Forms app. I
get a byte array of the static map image from a web method, which I
convert to an Image type and paint on a GUI element [all these in .NET
CF... ignore these]

The problem is I want the map image on the Form element to have
clickable Push pins.....

I  (of course,) have the latitude and longitude of the center of the
map.... I also have the lat and long of other markers (push
pins).....and also the zoom level....

how can i calculate the screen pixel coordinates of the pushpins and
the center.....

I found  a formula  on a page to get the absolute pixel coordinates of
a given point.. i.e.,  the pixel coordinates w.r.t the top left corner
of the top left tile of the entire Earth at a particular zoom level
(let's say zoom level 17).

But, given a 512x512 px image, I want the screen pixels.... i.e, w.r.t
the top left corner..... all this extrapolated leads me to get to find
the lat and long of the top left corner -> I have to find the lat and
long bounds of the static image.....

ex:

I want the screen pixels of the center of  a static map centered at
(lat, long): 33.319503, -86.713899 zoomed at 17, 512x512 px...... and
it's lat and lon bounds....

All these without using the javascript API's methods..... as i have to
implement this on a device, not in a web page....

Or, if there is a better approach to all this, I would appreciate it.
Any suggestions will be appreciated....

Thanks in advance,
Renuka Prasad.
