Displaying place names on google map

I am trying to get google maps to work inside my application. When I look at a building on google maps with available information about the room, it shows the name of the places in it.enter image description here

I was looking for a sample Google Indoor maps project, setting a new latitude and longitude, the sample project shows the building, but not all the place names. enter image description here

How can I show the same information as Google Maps?

Here is the code for IndoorDemoActivity

public class IndoorDemoActivity extends FragmentActivity {

  private GoogleMap mMap;

  private boolean showLevelPicker = true;

  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.indoor_demo);
    mMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
    // SFO airport
//    mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(new LatLng(37.614631, -122.385153), 18));
    mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(new LatLng(19.173036, 72.835679), 18));
  }

  /**
   * Called when the toggle level picker button is clicked.
   */
  public void onToggleLevelPicker(View view) {
    showLevelPicker = !showLevelPicker;
    mMap.getUiSettings().setIndoorLevelPickerEnabled(showLevelPicker);
  }

  /**
   * Called when the focused building info is clicked.
   */
  public void onFocusedBuildingInfo(View view) {
    IndoorBuilding building = mMap.getFocusedBuilding();
    if (building != null) {
      String s = "";
      for (IndoorLevel level : (List<IndoorLevel>) building.getLevels()) {
        s = s + level.getName() + " ";
      }
      if (building.isUnderground()) {
        s += "is underground";
      }
      setText(s);
    } else {
      setText("No visible building");
    }
  }

  /**
   * Called when the focused level info is clicked.
   */
  public void onVisibleLevelInfo(View view) {
    IndoorBuilding building = mMap.getFocusedBuilding();
    if (building != null) {
      IndoorLevel level = (IndoorLevel) building.getLevels().get(building.getActiveLevelIndex());
      if (level != null) {
        setText(level.getName());
      } else {
        setText("No visible level");
      }
    } else {
      setText("No visible building");
    }
  }

  /**
   * Called when the activate higher level is clicked.
   */
  public void onHigherLevel(View view) {
    IndoorBuilding building = mMap.getFocusedBuilding();
    if (building != null) {
      List<IndoorLevel> levels = building.getLevels();
      if (!levels.isEmpty()) {
        int currentLevel = building.getActiveLevelIndex();
        // The levels are in 'display order' from top to bottom,
        // i.e. higher levels in the building are lower numbered in the array.
        int newLevel = currentLevel - 1;
        if (newLevel == -1) {
          newLevel = levels.size() - 1;
        }
        IndoorLevel level = levels.get(newLevel);
        setText("Activiating level " + level.getName());
        level.activate();
      } else {
        setText("No levels in building");
      }
    } else {
      setText("No visible building");
    }
  }

  private void setText(String message) {
    TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.top_text);
    text.setText(message);
  }
}

The markers you see in the Google Maps app are most likely hosted in the Google Maps app via Google Places. The limited set of markers you see in your app are probably baked into the innermost map as "Floor Plan Markers" .



As far as I know, you must integrate with the Google Places API to display information about other locations . You can then use that to find and add business markers yourself addMarker

, perhaps cleaning up and re-adding them whenever the level changes.
