google map API zoom range

 

I am using google map API version-3 , I was trying with different zoom value, I have randomly done for some numbers started with 1 upto 100 , map gets zoom in for increasing numbers but some level giving same result, I mean I am getting same zoom for 30 and 100.

I like to know , what is the exact range for zoom?

Available Zoom Levels

Zoom level 0 is the most zoomed out zoom level available and each integer step in zoom level halves the X and Y extents of the view and doubles the linear resolution.

Google Maps was built on a 256x256 pixel tile system where zoom level 0 was a 256x256 pixel image of the whole earth. A 256x256 tile for zoom level 1 enlarges a 128x128 pixel region from zoom level 0.

As correctly stated by bkaid, the available zoom range depends on where you are looking and the kind of map you are using:

  • Road maps - seem to go up to zoom level 22 everywhere
  • Hybrid and satellite maps - the max available zoom levels depend on location. Here are some examples:
  • Remote regions of Antarctica: 13
  • Gobi Desert: 17
  • Much of the US and Europe: 21
  • "Deep zoom" locations: 22-23 (see bkaid's link)

    • Note that these values are for the Google Static Maps API which seems to give one more zoom level than the Javascript API. It appears that the extra zoom level available for Static Maps is just an upsampled version of the max-resolution image from the Javascript API.

    Map Scale at Various Zoom Levels

    Google Maps uses a Mercator projection so the scale varies substantially with latitude. A formula for calculating the correct scale based on latitude is:

    meters_per_pixel = 156543.03392 * Math.cos(latLng.lat() * Math.PI / 180) / Math.pow(2, zoom)

    Formula is from Chris Broadfoot's comment.

    Google Maps basics

    Zoom Level - zoom

    0 - 19

    0 lowest zoom (whole world)

    19 highest zoom (individual buildings, if available) Retrieve current zoom level using mapObject.getZoom()

    What you're looking for are the scales for each zoom level. Use these: 

    20 : 1128.497220
19 : 2256.994440
18 : 4513.988880
17 : 9027.977761
16 : 18055.955520
15 : 36111.911040
14 : 72223.822090
13 : 144447.644200
12 : 288895.288400
11 : 577790.576700
10 : 1155581.153000
9  : 2311162.307000
8  : 4622324.614000
7  : 9244649.227000
6  : 18489298.450000
5  : 36978596.910000
4  : 73957193.820000
3  : 147914387.600000
2  : 295828775.300000
1  : 591657550.500000
