So the areas are arbitrary? Or can they be defined by GLatLngBounds()? (That is, a rectangle with the edges aligned east-west and north- south?) If the areas are arbitrary then surely drawing a polygon is the only way to do it. Once the polygon is defined you could send the list of vertices to the server to store. I don't know if SQLServer does WKT or some other spatial data format, but you would probably need some server-side processing of the vertex data whatever method you use in the database. > I intend to seek for an address and get the Area that match to it... > something like this: > 5th Ave, belongs to Area 'C2'. > Bronx Park E, belongs to Area 'E5'. That's fine. Geocode the address and then use point-in-polygon analysis of your areas to determine which one contains the location. If you have a spatially-aware database this is even more straightforward. > I also need to get a list of all addresses inside an area sorted. The API won't help with that.
