Nutiteq is now part of CARTO! Please use latest CARTO Mobile SDK for new projects. Nutiteq SDK 3.x support and updates ended in 2017, documentation here is outdated.

Raster tile sources

With Nutiteq Starter, Pro or Enterprise plans (not Lite) you can use any raster tile map source: your own, 3rd party etc. Here is collection of various raster map tile sources.

To use following tile sources use HTTPTileDataSource, and create RasterTileLayer using it. The DataSource constructor takes URL pattern which are given below, and requires also minimum and maximum zoom levels. For all above 0 is minimum zoom, and maximum varies from 14 to 19.

Code sample

  TileDataSource tileDataSource = new HTTPTileDataSource(
    0, 18, 
    "http://your-url-with-placeholders-see-below");
  RasterTileLayer layer = new RasterTileLayer(tileDataSource);
  mapView.getLayers().add(layer);
