Bing Maps Web Control SDK retirement

Bing Maps Web Control SDK is deprecated and will be retired. Free (Basic) account customers can continue to use Bing Maps Web Control SDK until June 30th, 2025. Enterprise account customers can continue to use Bing Maps Web Control SDK until June 30th, 2028. To avoid service disruptions, all implementations using Bing Maps Web Control SDK will need to be updated to use Azure Maps Web SDK by the retirement date that applies to your Bing Maps for Enterprise account type. For detailed migration guidance, see Migrate from Bing Maps Web Control SDK and Migrate Bing Maps Enterprise applications to Azure Maps with GitHub Copilot.

Azure Maps is Microsoft's next-generation maps and geospatial services for developers. Azure Maps has many of the same features as Bing Maps for Enterprise, and more. To get started with Azure Maps, create a free Azure subscription and an Azure Maps account. For more information about azure Maps, see Azure Maps Documentation. For migration guidance, see Bing Maps Migration Overview.

Module name: Microsoft.Maps.GeoXml

Namespace: Microsoft.Maps

The GeoXml module makes it easy to read and write common geospatial XML file formats such as KML (Keyhole Markup Language), KMZ (compressed KML), GeoRSS, GML (Geography Markup Language, exposed via GeoRSS), and GPX (GPS Exchange Format).

There are two ways to make use of this module. The first is to use the static methods in the GeoXml class to read/write the raw data. This gives you full control over the data and how it is rendered, if you choose to render it. The second option is to use the GeoXmlLayer which handles the importing of the XML data and generates a data layer which you can add to the map like any other layer. It handles all the rendering for you. This is a quick and easy way to get your geospatial XML data on the map with as little as 3 lines of code.

Tip

If GeoJSON data is passed into the GeoXmlLayer or the read functions of the GeoXml class, it will automatically load the GeoJSON module and read the data.
