This url refresh all the time when zoom-in or zoom-out map.
I am using this code for populating pin on map call url in doInbackground an load in onPostExcution of AsyncTask As-

if(!valueoftotal.equalsIgnoreCase("") && !valueoftotal.equalsIgnoreCase(null))

    if(Integer.parseInt(valueoftotal) > 0 && Integer.parseInt(valueoftotal) <= 100)

        linearbottom2.setClickable(true);

                         mc.animateTo(point);
                         mc.setCenter(point);
                         mc.setZoom(18);
                     }
                 }
             }

             mapOverlays.add(overlay);
             mapView.invalidate();
             MapController mcontrller =mapView.getController();

But the problem is when I touch map immediately, it remove all pin and start loading new position. I want to load smoothly get all the position first and then remove.

Please anyone help me ASAP, sorry for my explanation.
