A map item includes a geographic location and any interesting data that might apply to that location, such as the address at that location and the name of a business at that address. You can also create a special MKMapItem object representing the user's current location.
Use this class to do the following
- Share map-related data with the Maps app.
- Handle requests for directions that originate from the Maps app.
If you implement a routing app, Maps provides you with two MKMapItem objects representing the start and end points. Use the information in those two objects to plot the route and generate directions.
