Android SDK mapView. Get map zoom level/position

Issue

I have the map working on android and am able to populate it with overlays.

But the overlay ability is only so good. If I add too many overlays and refresh too often, I can create an app that is very processor-hard (useless).

What I want to do is only load the overlays that are within the zoom level of the map.

How to I get at what level the map is zoomed using Google APIS, overlays, itemized, and geopoints?

Thanks,

Solution

You can use the getZoomLevel and getMapCenter methods on MapView. You might also read through the MapView class documentation.
