RMVirtualEarthSource

@interface RMVirtualEarthSource : RMAbstractMercatorWebSource <RMAbstractMercatorWebSource>

Subclass of RMAbstractMercatorWebSource for access to Microsoft Virtual Earth.

Provides access to USA map tiles from Microsoft Virtual Earth.  This implementation is incomplete.  It requires a SOAP transaction to validate an access key and obtain a session token.  Contact Microsoft Virtual Earth for further assistance; see contact information in RMVirtualEarthSource.m.

To obtain a Virtual Earth key, see this blog post

This source code sample does not comply with VE terms of service as of March, 2009.  To get into compliance, you’ll have to translate the SOAP call described in the above blog post into Objective-C, and modify the URL template in RMVirtualEarthSource.m.  If you manage to get that working, please contribute your code back to the Route-Me project.  When Microsoft was invited to submit “blessed” sample code in March, 2009, they declined.  Inherits from:
