Answer 1

Something like this:

MaView mapView = (MapView)findViewById(R.id.my_map);
MapController mapController = mapView.getController();
mapController.setZoom(14);    // this isn't 11 miles.

Or maybe you have a MapActivity? In that case, the idea is the same, but you'll get the MapView differently.
