If I have an embedded Google Map
$("#map_frame").attr("src", "https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1Sdu3m4-YMx_Kc0gWshTNQQgSFys&z=2&ll=44.013922, -88.342259");
Is is possible to set a maximum zoom level?
You can't, google maps api doesn't offer that.

I have recorded flight track data (lat, lon, altitude, angle, speed...) and want to simulate a cockpit view of the recorded flight.
Is there a JavaScript API to do this in 3D Google Maps (set and move camera view in Google Maps 3D)?
I am new to Google Maps API and cannot find documentation for this.
I think you can't do it using Javascript API. But closest thing for this is by using Styled Maps. As of now only Google Maps Android API and Google Maps SDK for iOS
can do it.
I found the very cool framework cesiumjs
which provides excatly what i was searching for.
Set camera with heading, roll, pitch and altitude.
Is there a way to retrieve the radius of a given location using the google API?
I want to use the above information so that when a user performs a search relevant to a location I can set the distance radius based on the size of the location instead of having a fixed radius on all searches.
Google Maps can show the perimeter of a geographic area. Nevertheless, it seems that Google has not enabled this functionality through the API.

Add "Search Area" outline onto google maps result
Google has started highlighting search areas in Pink color. Is this feature available in Google Maps API 3?
The Google Places API response in the Google Maps Javascript API v3 contains a viewport which is:
viewport | LatLngBounds | The preferred viewport when displaying this Place on a map. This property will be null if the preferred viewport for the Place is not known.
That can be used to calculate a radius if that is what you need or directly as the area to search.
Can we get Google earth as a Map Type Id in api v3 ..
As this is done in Google maps also..

Can we do it ?
Here is the Google ticket requesting to add the "Earth" button to the map type control.
And a more recent (started last summer) issue specifically asking for MapsGL support. (The more stars this issues gets, clicking the start to the left of the issue title...the faster it gets resolved! So add your vote!)
See this question: Google Earth integrated with Google Maps API v3?
If you want to get the MapTypeId you can do it like:
var mapTypeId = myMap.getMapTypeId();
You can set MapType like:
myMapObject.setMapTypeId(google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE);
Is there a way to make Google Maps zoom to a certain level based on what is being searched?
For instance, if I am searching for a street, then when I search for the street, google maps would zoom to the street level.
When I am searching for a city, the google maps will zoom to the city level, etc ...
Thanks
Actually, I solved this issue using the following line of code:
map.fitBounds(results[0].geometry.viewport);
I use the above line of code after I get a Status "OK" from geocoding web service. It works fine.
try this below links, here you will have some different maps level information.

I am using google map in my application. I have an application regarding to property sales and purchase for that I have used google map.
But now I have to add Bird's Eye view in it. Since there is no such a concept in google map api, I have decided to use Bing map.
But when I implemented a bing map in it, It affected the functionality of google map.
Means it conflicted the google map.
Can't I use bing map with google map?
Have any Idea?
When you want to use both Google map and Bing map in your application, then you can use different iframe for each.
It will prevent conflicting between each other...
