Abstract:
A method for displaying an image of a map using a processing system, the method including: dividing a first map image obtained from a map widget into sections wherein the first map image is displayed by the processing system; recording the location of each marker to be represented in a second map image; calculating a weight factor for each section; moving and deforming each section according to the weight factor of each section to form the second map image; placing a new marker on the second map image wherein the new marker represents at least one marker with a recorded location; and displaying the second map image in place of the first map image.
