我可以编辑适用于Android的Google Maps API吗？

Question

I want to edit it in order to add some TextViews in the map that I need. For example, a textview in top right corner with a real time information of location accuracy.

If you know a way to do it without modifying google maps api for android, please tell me.

I have read the terms of use os the service but i don't get a clear answer in if I can modify the maps jar.

You don't need to modify the maps API. All you need to do is use a RelativeLayout as the root container of your layout and add a MapView and a TextView to it to display the text you want.

Here's a sample code

<RelativeLayout 
 android:layout_width="fill_parent"
 android:layout_height="fill_parent">
 <MapView 
  android:id="@+id/mapview"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="fill_parent"
   />
 <TextView
  android:id="@+id/textview"
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:layout_alignTop="@id/mapview"
  android:layout_alignParentRight="true"/>

 </RelativeLayout>
