World map in WPF with zoom and coordinates?

The task is in such a way that you need to embed a map in a WPF application so that you can change the scale, put labels, and display labels by coordinates. You need a control with a fairly flexible setting for the color display of the map. Has anyone solved a similar problem in WPF or Windows Forms? Can you suggest ready-made paid/free controls?

Met controls under WPF. Well, as an option - embed a web browser and use JS controls.

IMHO, better than GMap.NET from free controls (and paid, perhaps), you will not find. Looked at

from a sane MapControl based on OpenStreetMap
- gives a terrible, not smoothed picture, he is up to the aforementioned GMap, like a snail up to a spaceship :)

As a result, I settled on MapControl. For me, it was important that the source code was small in size, you can easily change it to suit your tasks. In addition, I have not worked with cards before, and such a lightweight version of the control allowed me to understand the basic principles.
GMap.NET seemed too cumbersome. Yes, there is normal caching, database support, different maps, in short, a really serious project. But personally, it was easier for me to use several MapControl source files with the necessary refinement for the task. In total, if you need to quickly embed maps into the project without problems, use GMap, and if you have time, you can sharpen maps based on MapControl.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
