I need road name in marker infowindow while displaying route in google maps.
I found the following options,
1. Geocoder service in Google Maps Javascript API - which will give address for the given GPS coordinate.
2. Google Maps Roads API - which will return placeIds of the path and again I need to fire another request to get the address of placeId
What will be optimal solution to retrieve the road name for a given route (array of gps coordinates)?
The Geocoding API is the appropriate API to use for converting lat/lng coordinates into textual addresses and vice-versa. It's what it's meant to be used for.
The following is an example of a reverse geocoding request:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=40.714224,-73.961452&key=YOUR_API_KEY
Hope this helps!
I make a app but I have four position in database. Origin: Lat and long and Destiny: Lat and long
I would like send for native google maps and make router.
How do that??
You need Google Directions.
The Directions API is a service that calculates directions between locations. You can search for directions for several modes of transportation, including transit, driving, walking, or cycling.
Go there for more informations.
To use the Directions API, you must first activate the API in the Google Cloud Platform Console and obtain the proper authentication credentials.
You can do it there.
Here is a nice example of Directions Service.
I am using google map api i am fetching dynamically latitude and longitude from my database.

Fetching the associated address from a coordinates is called Reverse Geocoding
The Google Maps API provides reverse geocoding in the javascript API and as a web service.
The Google Maps service is not intended for bulk use. Your best option is to store the address in your database along with the coordinates as Reverse Geocoding is not always reliable.
You can use google map api like below
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=34.41448,-118.93753&sensor=true
Using this api,you can get address address from key
"formatted_address" : "1271 Cliff Avenue, Fillmore, CA 93015, USA"
Whole address you can get using this api.
Hope need helpful.
I'd guess that site is using the Reverse Geocoding API provided by Google.
I create a small web app, the user add his address and I want to show the map for his address.
Is there a way to get the latitude and longitude for an address? with Google Maps.
Or you could use the geocoding service from google maps: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/services.html#Geocoding
Here's a simple example for it: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/geocoding-simple.html
Yes there is. It is called geocoding. Here is Google's API: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/
I have an ip address i want to locate all the nearest places ip addresses marked with marker in google maps.
How can i achieve it ?
If you want to do this client side, consider using the Google Loader's ClientLocation. It provides IP-based geolocation:
http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/documentation/#ClientLocation
I'm not sure what you mean by nearest places, perhaps you'll then want to reverse geocode the latlng returned by google.loader.ClientLocation:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/reference.html#Geocoder
You can use ip2location to get the location of the IP and the use Google Geocoding API to find it's coordinates and place it on a map.
