Currently tiles are downloaded for additional zoom levels except the current one. The tiles are cached and later additional requests for the same tile are avoided. That said, it would be nice to have an option to download only the tiles for the current zoom level or specify a range of zoom levels.

This sample project is not exactly the same as my actual project, but has the same issue.

I have multiple maps visible. I have a PolygonData that I want to be visible on both maps. It shows up fine. However, the polygon on the first map will not scale when zooming with the FIRST map. If I zoom with the SECOND map, both polygons will correctly scale.

If I replace PolygonData with my own object (PolygonVM), both polygons always correctly scale.

Currently, the bindable wrappers classes like (MapPolygonView, MapPathView, etc.) are missing ZIndex property, in contrast with the map shape data objects (PolygonData, PathData, etc.) which support this. 

The map bindable wrappers should expose a ZIndex property that needs to be synced with the related map shape object

Currently, if you define the provider initially without setting the ApplicationId, and then at a later moment in time (after the provider gets initialized) you set the ApplicationId, the provider doesn't load any picture.

The fix for this issue is available with LIB (version 2018.3.1210) released on Monday, December 10.

Currently, the KML shape reader supports the MultiGeometry KML tag only partially. Provide full support.

OpenStreetMap provider uses OpenStreetMapSources which have MaxZoomLevel 18.

When Wraparound of the Map is True and you move (with SetView or ZoomLevel + Center properties) the map to zoomlevel > 18 , no tiles are loaded.

WMTS is a standard protocol for delivery of tiles map data - see  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Map_Tile_Service 
It should be possible to write code to understand pretty much any service complying with the specification. It would be good if RadMap could be extended to enable it to understand the WMTS specification and allow WMTS data to be used.

I can't bind to the Mode property of the BingRestMapProvider. The BingRestMapProvider is not part of the visual tree. This worked in Silverlight and I thought it worked in previous version of WPF as well.

Implement OpenStreetMap search provider. Similar to BingSearchProvider (http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radmap/features/search).

Currently , to implement location search with OpenStreetMap provider, you can use the Nominatim API:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim

When CommandBarVisibility is Collapsed in VS2013 and Office2013 themes, the zoombar and navigation bar are misplaced.


As a workaround users might set  CommandBarVisibility="Hidden".

Currently, when you use the BingRestMapProvider and the BingRestSearchLocationRequest the found locations are formatted using the System.Text.Encoding.Default encoding. This way if the found location contains unsupported characters they won't be shown properly.

Introduce a property for the BingRestSearchLocationRequest class that allows you to set the Encoding.

 Map freezes if current culture is non en-US ,AsyncShapeFileReader reads shapes and the Map is zoomed.

BingRestMapProvider always search with Structured URL and that is why it fails to find locations via long query search strings like: 

"royalton rd & brecksville rd brecksville oh"

You can see the difference between Structured and Unstructured rest search URLs here:

As a workaround, users can override BingRestMapProvider like so:

 public class CustomBingRestProvider : BingRestMapProvider
    {    
        protected override Uri BuildSearchLocationRequestUri(BingRestSearchLocationRequest request)
        {
            Uri baseUri = base.BuildSearchLocationRequestUri(request);

            string newPath = baseUri.AbsoluteUri.Replace("Locations/", "Locations/?q=");

            return new Uri(newPath); ;
        }

Currently, you can achieve this by using RotateTransform and clipping the container that holds the RadMap control. For example:

<Grid RenderTransformOrigin="0.5,0.5" Width="500" Height="500">
	<Grid.RenderTransform>
		<RotateTransform Angle="45" />
	</Grid.RenderTransform>
	<Grid.Clip>
		<EllipseGeometry Center="250,250" RadiusX="250" RadiusY="250" />
	</Grid.Clip>
	<telerik:RadMap ZoomLevel="6" Center="37, -120">
		<telerik:RadMap.Provider>
			<telerik:OpenStreetMapProvider />
		</telerik:RadMap.Provider>
	</telerik:RadMap>
</Grid>

Add the CanvasDark, CanvasLight, CanvasGray, RoadOnDemand and AerialOnDemand modes in the BingRestMapProvider.

Currently it supports only Aerial, Road and BirdsEye and their variants with labels.

Check the imagerySet parameter here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff701724.aspx

Ordnance Survey will not be added among with these modes.

RadMap with Wraparound = True. Custom TiledProvider with custom TileSource is used.

GetCachedTile is overridden to get the cached tiles in the local file system.

When zooming , endless invocation of GetCachedTile method is performed which leads to increasing of CPU usage.
