Panning and Zooming the Map Control

The Map control’s Center property is a GeoCoordinate that is used to retrieve and set the center location of the map view. The following example shows how to set the Center property of a Map control in XAML by providing the latitude and longitude (in that order):

<m:Map Center="45.8, 6.15" />

The Center property can also be data bound, as shown in the following example:

<m:Map Center="{Binding Center, Mode=TwoWay}" />

By using a TwoWay data binding, you can track the current center point of the map from your viewmodel.
