Complex Polylines

Stay organized with collections Save and categorize content based on your preferences.

Click two or more points on the map to draw polylines.

Read the documentation.

TypeScript

// This example creates an interactive map which constructs a polyline based on
// user clicks. Note that the polyline only appears once its path property
// contains two LatLng coordinates.

let poly: google.maps.Polyline;
let map: google.maps.Map;

function initMap(): void {
  map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map") as HTMLElement, {
    zoom: 7,
    center: { lat: 41.879, lng: -87.624 }, // Center the map on Chicago, USA.
  });

  poly = new google.maps.Polyline({
    strokeColor: "#000000",
    strokeOpacity: 1.0,
    strokeWeight: 3,
  });
  poly.setMap(map);

  // Add a listener for the click event
  map.addListener("click", addLatLng);
}

// Handles click events on a map, and adds a new point to the Polyline.
function addLatLng(event: google.maps.MapMouseEvent) {
  const path = poly.getPath();

  // Because path is an MVCArray, we can simply append a new coordinate
  // and it will automatically appear.
  path.push(event.latLng as google.maps.LatLng);

  // Add a new marker at the new plotted point on the polyline.
  new google.maps.Marker({
    position: event.latLng,
    title: "#" + path.getLength(),
    map: map,
  });
}

declare global {
  interface Window {
    initMap: () => void;
  }
}
window.initMap = initMap;

Note: Read the guide on using TypeScript and Google Maps. JavaScript

// This example creates an interactive map which constructs a polyline based on
// user clicks. Note that the polyline only appears once its path property
// contains two LatLng coordinates.
let poly;
let map;

function initMap() {
  map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), {
    zoom: 7,
    center: { lat: 41.879, lng: -87.624 }, // Center the map on Chicago, USA.
  });
  poly = new google.maps.Polyline({
    strokeColor: "#000000",
    strokeOpacity: 1.0,
    strokeWeight: 3,
  });
  poly.setMap(map);
  // Add a listener for the click event
  map.addListener("click", addLatLng);
}

// Handles click events on a map, and adds a new point to the Polyline.
function addLatLng(event) {
  const path = poly.getPath();

  // Because path is an MVCArray, we can simply append a new coordinate
  // and it will automatically appear.
  path.push(event.latLng);
  // Add a new marker at the new plotted point on the polyline.
  new google.maps.Marker({
    position: event.latLng,
    title: "#" + path.getLength(),
    map: map,
  });
}

window.initMap = initMap;

Note: The JavaScript is compiled from the TypeScript snippet. CSS

/* 
 * Always set the map height explicitly to define the size of the div element
 * that contains the map. 
 */
#map {
  height: 100%;
}

/* 
 * Optional: Makes the sample page fill the window. 
 */
html,
body {
  height: 100%;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
