<h1>Geolocation Marker for Google Maps v3</h1>
<p>This library uses geolocation to add a marker and accuracy circle to a map. The marker
position is automatically updated as the user position changes.</p>
<p><img alt="" src="//google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/geolocationmarker/images/example.png" width="300" height="219" /></p>
<p>To add the Geolocation Marker, just instantiate a new GeolocationMarker object, passing
your map to it: </p>
<pre class="prettyprint">var mapOptions = {
zoom: 17,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map_canvas'),
mapOptions);
var GeoMarker = new GeolocationMarker(map);</pre>
<p>See the <a href="https://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/geolocationmarker/examples/mylocation.html">example</a>.</p>
<p style="font-style:italic;">Note: This library will only function in browsers supporting the
<a href="http://dev.w3.org/geo/api/spec-source.html">W3C Geolocation API</a>.
This excludes Internet Explorer versions 8 and older.</p>
<h2 id="GeolocationMarker">class GeolocationMarker</h2>
<p>This class extends <a href="https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference#MVCObject">google.maps.MVCObject</a>.</p>
