Click to Center Map Sample

This sample Windows application uses the RenderServiceSoap.ConvertToLatLong method to recenter a map image based on the pixel coordinate where the end-user clicks. The latitude and longitude coordinates of the map, as well as the pixel coordinate of the image are displayed below the map. Additionally, the FindServiceSoap.GetLocationInfo method is used to identify the county or region for the area on the map where the user clicked.
