Question

I am populating a ListView of map coordinates from a SQLite database of map-points in a SlidingDrawer at the footer of a MapView.

I would like to pan to the appropriate map point when an item in the the ListView is clicked.

To simply this, how do you pan to a hard-coded geopoint on the map when a button is clicked?

Links to tutorials are always helpful 🙂

If you are using the new Google Maps API v2, you would create a LatLng using something like

LatLng point = new LatLng(latitude, longitude);

and then move the camera to that point using moveCamera.

So, with your new point, you would write

getMap().moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(point));

This is discussed in the docs here.
