Chapter 34. Maps

Your app can imitate the Maps app, displaying a map interface and placing annotations and overlays on the map. UIView subclasses for displaying the map, along with the programming API, are provided by the Map Kit framework. You’ll link to MapKit.framework and import <MapKit/MapKit.h>. You might also need the Core Location framework to express locations by latitude and longitude; you’ll link to CoreLocation.framework and import <CoreLocation/CoreLocation.h>.
