Google Maps Api: Heatmap & Search - Cannot Merge Into Single Map

I'm trying to work with Google maps and Twitter API's to generate a city searchable heatmap of a certain topic/keyword from twitter. I have the heatmap working and the search map

Solution 1:

You have two separate maps created in two separate initialization functions.

One option:

  1. remove one of the maps (making sure the remaining initialize function initializes the global map variable).
  2. call both initMap and initAutocomplete in an onload function (or combine them into a single function).

    google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', function() { initMap(); initAutocomplete() });

proof of concept fiddle (moved the SearchBox onto the floating panel)

code snippet:

// This example requires the Visualization library. Include the libraries=visualization// parameter when you first load the API. For example:// <script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&libraries=visualization">var map, heatmap;

functioninitMap() {
  map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
    zoom: 13,
    center: {
      lat: 37.775,
      lng: -122.434
    },
    mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE
  });

  heatmap = new google.maps.visualization.HeatmapLayer({
    data: getPoints(),
    map: map
  });
}

functiontoggleHeatmap() {
  heatmap.setMap(heatmap.getMap() ? null : map);
}

functionchangeGradient() {
  var gradient = [
    'rgba(0, 255, 255, 0)',
    'rgba(0, 255, 255, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 191, 255, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 127, 255, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 63, 255, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 0, 255, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 0, 223, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 0, 191, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 0, 159, 1)',
    'rgba(0, 0, 127, 1)',
    'rgba(63, 0, 91, 1)',
    'rgba(127, 0, 63, 1)',
    'rgba(191, 0, 31, 1)',
    'rgba(255, 0, 0, 1)'
  ]
  heatmap.set('gradient', heatmap.get('gradient') ? null : gradient);
}

functionchangeRadius() {
  heatmap.set('radius', heatmap.get('radius') ? null : 20);
}

functionchangeOpacity() {
  heatmap.set('opacity', heatmap.get('opacity') ? null : 0.2);
}
