How can we integrate google map and call data through google api in netlogo. I have studied about GIS and KML extension but could not able to find good solution for it.

I am trying to show a race course via the google api. I have gone in and created a custom map and can't figure out how to show that from the api. I am trying to add this to a website and then want to add another API on top of it.
This is the map I have created
To display data from Google MyMaps on a Google Maps Javascript API v3 map, export the data as KML/KMZ, then display it using KmlLayer

I notice you can enable sign-in with the Google Maps V3 API. I wondered, is it possible to display a map created under a users My Maps service on a map configured through the V3 API?
I'm not so sure it is possible having had a hunt around on the web, so thought I'd ask here.
Thanks
According to the KML files on Google Maps, you can upload a KML file to my maps and at the same time, Google Maps v3 API.
but there is no mention about displaying my maps directly on v3.
However you can try figure out how to get mid and lid programmatically and regenerate the share url.
Does anyone have a good reference for the new google maps parameters. It seems maps are now in the format
https://www.google.com/maps/#40.07304,-74.724323,8z
Where the first two parameters are the LAT and LONG, the third is the zoom level. Are there other parameters to customize such as a marker location.
Could not find any official documentation from Google, but the Moz Blog has a description on the new Google Maps URL structure.
If you want to integrate with Google Maps (instead of just providing a link to a map), Google Maps has a couple of web APIs for maps:
Google Maps Javascript API
Google Maps Embed API
Google Maps Image APIs
Those pages do describe the location format (and the API Key to be used).
I have a saved google map in 'My Places', with over 100+ pins added for locations around the UK. Is there any way I can avoid having to use the embed feature to display this map on a webpage, sort of calling the saved map by ID via the google API?
Essentially what I want to do is get access to google's new visual refresh and be able to control the settings of the map more with API.
The map link is this: https://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?msid=207590858966548688521.0004aa52150024d3431b2&msa=0
Can we parse anything here...?
You can overlay the KML output by MyMaps using a KmlLayer in the Google Maps API also:
your MyMaps data displayed on an API based map
Updates in MyMaps will (eventually) be reflected on the map.
Using https://mapsengine.google.com I was able to import the maps data and utilise the pins that way. Not ideal, but still some better functionality.
I want to develop a web-application using Google Earth in the browser.
I need to add a point feature, a polyline and a polygon.
The web-applicaton needs to display the features the same as the Google Earth desktop application.
I want to use the Google Maps Api and the Google Earth Api to deliver google earth in the browser.
How can I make this kind of application for myself, what is the best way for doing so?
You should look at the Google Earth Api documentation. http://code.google.com/apis/earth/documentation/reference/
Simple objects like points, polylines and polygons can be created via the api or loaded in Kml format. Take a look at the following documents.
Geometries and Overlays
http://code.google.com/apis/earth/documentation/geometries.html
Introduction to Kml
http://code.google.com/apis/earth/documentation/kml.html
From the sounds of it the KML approach might be the easiest thing - depending on the nature of the application. If you have some existing data in Google Earth, it would be easy to save this as a kml or kmz file and load it in to the Google Earth Api.
