The 2 points must be converted to mercator.
In mercator the middle point is calculated.
After that there must be a conversion to WGS84 again.


My method call should be:
map.setBounds(southwest, northeast);

Think about a gpx line that should be shown on the map.

The formula should deliver values for
map.setCenter(center, zoom); //center is a point in WGS84.
