The Qt Location API helps you create viable mapping solutions using the data available from some of the popular location services.
Qt Location API 能够：
To load the Qt Location module, add the following statement to your .qml files
import QtPositioning 5.5 import QtLocation 5.6
The QtLocation QML module depends on the QtPositioning QML module. Therefore every QML application that imports the QtLocation QML module must always import the QtPositioning module as well.
For C++ projects include the header appropriate for the current use case, for example applications using routes may use
#include <QGeoRoute>
.pro 文件应有 location 添加关键词
QT += location
The API is split into sub-modules, which provide QML and C++ interfaces for specific purposes. They focus mainly on Map and Place information. The required position data can be retrieved using the QtPositioning 模块。
The Places submodule is the natural complement to Positioning, providing a source of geographical data about Places of Interest (POI). Besides the source information, the API provides information about the location, size, and other related information about a POI. The Places API can also retrieve images, reviews, and other content related to a place.
| Places introduction: | for QML | for C++ |
The module provides the QML and C++ alternatives for maps and navigation. The C++ alternative provides utility classes to get geocoding (finding a geographic coordinate from a street address) and navigation (including driving and walking directions) information, whereas its QML counterpart provides UI components to render the information.
