RealmMapView 2.2

ABFRealmMapView

The ABFRealmMapView class creates an interface object that inherits MKMapView and manages real-time fetching and displaying annotations for a Realm object class that contains coordinate data. In addition, by default the map view clusters annotations based on zoom level.

This allows for the creation of a map interface with as little as no code via Interface Builder!

Realm Swift support was added in version 1.4 with an identical API.

Did you find this library and haven't heard of Realm?

The quick overview is that Realm is a replacement to Core Data or SQLite. It is extremely fast (enabling the instant map searching and clustering) and free to use. For more details head over to Realm.

The demo app uses RealmSFRestaurantData to search through restaurants in San Francisco.
