New basemap styling is coming soon to Google Maps Platform. This update to map styling includes a new default color palette, modernized pins, and improvements to map experiences and usability. All map styles will be automatically updated in March 2025. For more information on availability and how to opt in earlier, see
New map style for Google Maps Platform.
GoogleMaps Framework Reference
GMSGeometryIsLocationOnPathTolerance
extern BOOL GMSGeometryIsLocationOnPathTolerance(CLLocationCoordinate2D point,
GMSPath *_Nonnull path,
BOOL geodesic,
CLLocationDistance tolerance)
Returns whether point lies on or near path, within the specified tolerance in meters.
path is composed of great circle segments if geodesic is YES, and of rhumb (loxodromic)
segments if geodesic is NO.
See also GMSGeometryIsLocationOnPath(point, path, geodesic).
The tolerance, in meters, is relative to the spherical radius of the Earth. If you need to work
on a sphere of different radius, you may compute the equivalent tolerance from the desired
tolerance on the sphere of radius R: tolerance = toleranceR * (RadiusEarth / R), with
RadiusEarth==6371009.
