BingMapDataProviderBaseRemarks
Important
On May 21, 2024, Microsoft announced that Bing Maps for Enterprise and its API will be discontinued. Azure Maps will be a single unified enterprise mapping platform available from Microsoft.
To obtain and display map data from Azure Maps, we implemented the following providers:
- AzureMapDataProvider
- AzureSearchDataProvider
- AzureRouteDataProvider
- AzureGeocodeDataProvider
- AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider
- AzureRouteIsochroneDataProvider
For information on how to migrate your app from Bing Maps to Azure Maps, see the following help topic: DevExpress Map Control for WPF: Migrate from Bing Maps to Azure Maps.
If you already have a Bing Maps for Enterprise license, you can keep using the current API. You must transition to the new API by June 30, 2025 (for free/basic licenses) or June 30, 2028 (for enterprise licenses). New licenses will no longer be available after June 30, 2025. Bing Maps will not work with our map controls without a license after that date.
Follow the steps below to create a map with traffic incidents:
Create an InformationLayer object and add it to the MapControl.Layers collection.
Create a BingTrafficIncidentDataProvider object and specify its BingKey property. Assign the object to the layer’s DataProvider property.
Call the provider’s RequestTrafficIncidents method to receive a list of incidents.
To include traffic location codes in the method’s result, enable the BingTrafficIncidentDataProvider.Options.IncludeLocationCodes property.
After you obtain a list of incidents, the provider raises the TrafficIncidentCalculated event. You can handle the event to access the collection of received incidents or add custom logic.
