I have this url to view the nearest hospitals with the given coordinates.
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=hospitals+near+{lat},{long}
Is their a way to get the results in XML or JSON?
Thanks!
You have lots of options, starting here. IF you want a URL you can query and get back XML or JSON then go here.
Those are links directly to the Google APIs documentation. You have many options available including a JavaScript API as well as a web service that can retrieve JSON or XML.

I am looking at a dart library that hits a specific vimeo url...
https://player.vimeo.com/video/{videoId}/config
Hitting this url returns a json file with a lot of fields. I am trying to find any docs that give a description of all of these fields. I have been unable to do so at this point.
When I got to the Vimeo API reference, it refers to language specific apis like the python api or the javascript api, not the restful api (or at least the portion I am looking for).
Does anyone know how to find docs that refer to the json returned from the previously listed URL?
I think you want to go to the API reference docs:
https://developer.vimeo.com/api/reference/videos#search_videos
On that page you can scroll down and review the Response (there are three areas to click: Details, Example and Reference). You want reference.
How can i find some type of object via OpenStreetMap ? I want to send the request and receive answer in XML format (JSON will be ok). E.g. i want to know what historical objects or restaurant are available in place where I'm.
Have a look at the Overpass API to query for OSM data and Overpass Turbo for testing/displaying.
For more infos you should checkout the OSM specific sites: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Help
For simple queries a geocoder should suffice. There are various search engines for OSM of which Nominatim is the most popular one currently. Please see Nominatim's usage policy if you intend to use OpenStreetMap's official Nominatim instance, or choose one of the alternatives.
For more complex queries take a look at the Overpass API mentioned in the answer by RoToRa.
I have called this url http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&saddr=60012& daddr=500+NORTHWEST+HWY,+CARY,+IL,+60013&ie=UTF8&0&om=0&output=kml&sensor=false instead of getting KML response I am getting it as full javascript source. I am really confused with that. Could any one help me out from this issue.
This way of extracting the Google Directions from Google by parsing the KML file is no longer available since 27 July 2012 (because Google has changed the structure of retrieving Google Directions, now you can only get it by JSON or XML), it is time to migrate your code to JSON instead of KML.
See the answer (for Android, but I guess you can work it out for BlackBerry) in my own question here.
how to parse json response that we get from google map api and how can we show the particular location on map.
suppose i have entered one location name(i.e NewYork) and for that i have received json response,how can i show it on the map.
please provide help as i have never used google map api and json also.
Whole bunch of examples here: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/demogallery.html
My advice? Find the simplest one closest to what you want to do and view source.
Edit: missed the j2me tag. This advice is inapplicable. Sorry about that.
I would like to issue a local search on Google maps (e.g. list of restaurants for a given location), and I would like to get the (Restaurants data) data back in JSON/XML or other similar format. What's the best way to do it?
Thanks!
I found this http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/#center_localsearch if it helps
