I guess it's not clearly explained in the issue report. The maximum zoom value of any given map type varies around the world, according to the detail available. You might for example get a higher zoom in central London than in the Gobi Desert. This can't be determined client-side. getMaximumResolution() is therefore a bit meaningless without a 'target point', and plays safe. This thread has a comprehensive discussion - http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Maps-API/browse_thread/thread/52e4f12abcec67a5/a81033a8e5183021?lnk=gst&q=tiles+max+zoom+level#a81033a8e5183021 cheers, Ross K --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
