google.maps.geometry.spherical error

Tags:

I am having some troubles using the geometry at google maps. I am getting the following error: "Unable to get property 'spherical' of undefined or null reference."

This is some code from w3c with some additions of mine.

var x=new google.maps.LatLng(52.395715,4.888916); var stavanger=new google.maps.LatLng(58.983991,5.734863); var amsterdam=new google.maps.LatLng(52.395715,4.888916); var london=new google.maps.LatLng(51.508742,-0.120850); function initialize() { var mapProp = {   center:x,   zoom:4,   mapTypeId:google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP };  var map=new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("googleMap"),mapProp); var myTrip=[stavanger,amsterdam,london]; var flightPath=new google.maps.Polyline({     path:myTrip,     strokeColor:"#0000FF",     strokeOpacity:0.8,     strokeWeight:2     }); flightPath.setMap(map);  try{     var markerpos = google.maps.geometry.spherical.interpolate(flightPath.getAt(0), flightPath.getAt(1), .5);     // also tried //     //var Spherical = google.maps.geometry.spherical;     //var markerpos = Spherical.interpolate(flightPath.getAt(0), flightPath.getAt(1), .5);     //var markerpos = google.maps.geometry.spherical.interpolate(amsterdam, london, .5); } catch(ex){alert(ex);}  var marker = new google.maps.Marker({position: markerpos,     map: map,  clickable: false }); } 

What is wrong with the above code?

What is geodesic in Google Map?

A geodesic is the shortest path between two points on the Earth's surface. The geodesic curve is constructed assuming the Earth is a sphere. Clickability. If you want to handle events fired when the user clicks the polyline, set this property to true .

How the Google map application makes use of coordinate geometry in its functioning?

The Maps JavaScript API uses the following coordinate systems: Latitude and longitude values, which reference a point on the world uniquely. (Google uses the World Geodetic System WGS84 standard.) World coordinates, which reference a point on the map uniquely.
