That is called reverse geocoding. The Google Maps API supports reverse geocoding (Since 2.133): http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/services.html#ReverseGeocoding You could also investigate geonames.org: http://www.geonames.org/export/reverse-geocoding.html or the other third party geocoders on this page: http://groups.google.com/group/google-maps-api/web/resources-non-google-geocoders -- Larry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
