Flutter for Beginners

The Marker class

Marker, as mentioned in the documentation, simply marks a geographical location on the map. It adds context information over the map, such as identifying a place, checkpoint, or point of interest.

Markers typically are defined with an icon, and single or multiple actions in its click event. The following properties are some of the most used when adding markers to a map:

• position: Although not mandatory by the plugin itself, it identifies the geographical location of the marker on the map, so it is almost always required
• icon: This is a marker icon in the BitmapDescriptor format

Check out more information about the BitmapDescriptor class on the plugin documentation page: https://pub.dartlang.org/documentation/google_maps_flutter/latest/google_maps_flutter/BitmapDescriptor-class.html ...
