Is it possible to change the color of street in g-map? - wpf

I have a WPF project that shows all of buses route over the city and the current position of every bus. I can Show all positions using markers and also all of routes but the routes are shown by drawing a line inside the streets.
It is going to be more efficient if I can change the color of whole street's width instead of usual way(drawing line).
Is it possible? If yes How?

If you're using GMap.Net, the best would be to update to the latest version and go through the maps until you find a map with a colour scheme that works for you. The demo winforms project in the repo: https://github.com/radioman/greatmaps allows for easy switching between maps to find the map you like.

How to load a open street map from local source?

I'm using the wpf map control of DevExpress 15.1.5 and I'm trying to load a map from a local source.
DevExpress's help allows me to download a .osm file of a selected map area by me, but I can not load a .osm with this control; it only supports .kml and .shp.
What can I do?
You need to download map data in a different format, see. :
OpenStreetMap data
I recommend the first download a small country and try it if that's what you need.
Map consists of multiple layers, which together form "what you see". Layers are buildings, roads, places, waterways,landuse ... and are formed by shapes *.shp file (eg. Building plan, the route of the road ...)
You can view video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vlEzX9Q15Y&t=6s
also the source code is available in github.
the Control works on local OSM tiles
it is written in C#
I created OSM MAP Control which have the following functionalities:
1. Accurate Zoom with the mouse wheel.
2. Move left , up ,bottom and right
3.if tiles are missing , it ask to start download those missing tiles.
4. Create line on the map
5.save history by friendly name
6. you can download area of tiles - with zoom.

AngularJS Dynamic Slider Control

I am working on a project that requires a slider control that corresponds to an image and or a multitude of div objects. The spacing of the slider is irregular (the steps could be [1,4,7,13,14,16...]). Also the steps will correspond to specific spots on an image and or to a specific div object. The perfect slider would be dynamic and re-size with the screen but that may be actually impossible.
The hard part is that I am unable to use JQueryUI, instead I am limited to using controls that work with AngularJS.
I have been looking for hours and cannot find anything that would be a good starting point. So my question is whether anyone has found a good slider control to use with AngularJS?
This one fits some of your criteria

Is there a documentation on how to use weather overlay from noaa.gov?

I am trying to add a weather overlay to my maps , the tile images on Noaa.gov are what i want but i couldn't find any documentation on how to construct url to consume & arrange tiles of overlays for a given lon/lat. below is the a sample url that returns a single tile.
http://radarcache.srh.noaa.gov/tc/tc.py/1.0.0/ridge::NAT-N0Q-201211191510/8/62/97.png
update:
The web service i am working on generates a sectional aviation chart/map for a given lon/lat dimension and zoom level . one of the overlays i am rendering on top of the generated base map is weather(radar reflective ..)
based on the information i have (lon/lat, dimension and zoom level) i want to render weather overlay on top of my base map.
the challenge i am facing is how do i get weather overlay using lon/lat ?
After researching a lot i found out that NOAA Tile System uses this Tile arrangement, based on that i was able to get PNG images overlay for a given (lon/lat/zoom) as follows
http://ridgewms.srh.noaa.gov/tc/tc.py/1.0.0/ridge::NAT-N0Q-{0:yyyyMMddHHmm}/{1}/{2}/{3}.png
Where
{0:yyyyMMddHHmm} = date time in 5 minute increments
{1} ZoomLevel
{2} X or tile column
{3} Y or Tile Row
Without more information about what you are trying to integrate into, here is what I know. If you want to create a custom KML file, there is this page that will do that for you. For more info about other layers, check out this page as well.
If you provide more info about your environment, we might be able to help with more specifics.
EDIT:
For just the transparent gifs, see this page here http://forecast.weather.gov/jetstream/doppler/ridge_download.htm
There is quite a bit of information for downloading actual data here http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/radar/radardata.html

Drawing maps in WPF

I want to draw a map in WPF without using any third party controls.
I need each and every state of all the countries, and based on certain conditions I want to color them.
How can I get the polygon shapes of each state of all the countries?
Here is an SVG file with all the states as separate polygons (look at the source!)
You can convert it to xaml if you want and fill the state differently.
EDIT
Just google for svg world map. One of the first hits seems to be a nice resource.

silverlight map application like showcase on silverlight.net

we want to make application like silverlight showcase Mapview
where we can search by different category on left hand side panel or people can select country or region on map. can anyone suggest some sample or guidelines to implement this?
Thanks
Given the complexity and obvious expense, I would be really impressed if anything like that was released as a sample (Microsoft are you listening?). It requires a lot of data to drive it.
I have been involved in creating a Xaml World map from scratch (below) and that alone took nearly a day for a stylised polygon version (no fine detail)....
Quoting myself: "You import a map as a background image and use the pen tool to dot-to-dot trace around the country. Combine all those path segments into a single path. Then create a separate poly-path for each state (close them to allow for a fill)."
Once you create them you can name the individual country polygons and connect up mouse logic to make them all glow on mouse over or change colour on press etc.
Basically all the other stuff on that screen are user controls and custom controls. Work out the behaviour you want and create controls to suit your own needs.
