How to colorize Pushpin items based on data source data

A MapPushpin item is displayed by a simple image. By default, this image is loaded from the current Skin. The only way to change the pushpin color is to replace this image with a custom one using the Image property.

We update and assign it to a certain item from the IMapItemFactory.CreateMapItem Method.
