'Geocoding' gets coordinates from addresses. http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/services.html#Geocoding Keep an eye on the terms of use ; you're not allowed to scrape and store Google's data unless you intend to present it on a map. There are other geocoders. Places API searches for more general things like 'establishments', but its intended to find nearby things i.e search around some location. Limited use if you don't have a location to begin with. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
