I am trying to add the data coordinates by searching through addresses and save it to the dataset, but I am able to find the address on the search bar but it returns "save to dataset not available". I clearly shows the address below the search bar as recommended. Is there a way to save it to dataset?
Thank you

I am having a data set of say 10000 GPS points. I need to find GPS points depending on how frequently the area is visited by using the GPS data set I have. I am looking for a solution either by using google maps or by using mongoDB, but unable to find any clue how should I achieve this. Can anyone help me regarding this?
sample data = [{18.5204303,73.8567437},{18.520457, 73.856697},{18.520400, 73.856800},{18.520156, 73.857092},{18.519879, 73.857561}]
Out of the given data set first three point are near to each other.
So, whenever I will ask for frequently visited area from the given data set I should get result as [{18.5204303,73.8567437},{18.520457, 73.856697},{18.520400, 73.856800},{18.520156, 73.857092}]
I got the solution using google heatmap. I just passed array of gps points to heatmap and the heatmap displayed it in proportion of frequent access to the locations. That is what I was trying to achieve
I'm working on a web application to find images taken in a given location. I'd like to be able to do this using the latitude and longitude retrieved from geolocation to match geotagged images in Google images.
Is this possible? I've searched around a bit; it seems it's possible to search Flickr by lat/long, but I haven't found anything that indicates I can search Google images by lat/long. I can search by place name, but I'm looking for something more accurate than that.
Thank you in advance!
After looking through Google's Custom Search API (the Google Image Search API was deprecated and rolled into it), it looks like there isn't a way to search by geolocation.
Flickr might be your best bet since it's more open.
It's possible to retrieve images and photo taken at a certain place (therefore find a place by lat-long data) with Google Earth. While you are on a specific place, you can add additional layers (by default) including photos on your location.
I want to get all cities close to my actual geolocalisation (by GPS) in a X radius. A good example is the app Tinder. The user select the value of radius in KM and the app gets all the cities close to his geolocalisation inside the selected radius.
I want to calculate the radius and get all cities within by javascript or PHP.
An illustration:
You can download a database of all US cities, with their states and latitude/longitude, then query the database based on current GPS info. Just google search for a DB, they are about 30 meg, so make sure your queries are optimized.
Here is a db that should work...

If you can find a geospacial database it would perform better (not sure if linked one is or not). I have used a non geospacial one and it was fine though.
I've implemented an autocomplete searchbox on the map via the Geocoder. It's working fine. However, I would want to limit the returned results via the Geocoder to city limits.
For example: When a user types in "305 Quincy St", I want it to search for this address only within a city, let's say Florida.
At present, it is looking for this address from all around the world.
Can this be done?
Is it possible to make the autocomplete widget search within a
boundary extent on the map?
The closest I've come across is using the sourceCountry option of the Geocoder options and set it to USA. But it would be awesome if there was a way to have a sourceCity too.
Yes, you have a searchExtent parameter that can be used like this:
searchExtent=-104,35.6,-94.32,41

We have a Google Local profile (or Google Places) for our business and we have added multiple locations for each store. The requirement is to embed a map in each store page of our website with the accurate location of the store and to display an infoWindow just like it's been displayed from Google's map. Example below:
I have read the API's documentation but I can't seem to find a clear answer as to the way of referencing a store that already exists in the map. If I add the address of the store, I usually have a 2nd marker that is not on the exact location of the store. Example below:
If I add longitude and latitude I get 2 markers again (one on top of the other) but then again these markers do not relate to each other as they have different infoWindows. And one major issue is that by using the Places API I can't get the info just like Google does (I get undefined). Example:
Questions:
How can I really relate (or reference) to the store's location and the Google's Place location and have just one marker with the Google's info in it?
How can I reference to a specific store based on Google's Place profile, which has a business with multiple store locations and link it to the "Store" marker that already exists in the map?
Attempts:
I tried locating the store based on PlacesService and nearbySearch with a keyword of the store name. Example here. The problem is that I have 2 markers on the map if I zoom in at maximum level.
One more issue is that I have 81 stores and it's hard to hard-code the coordinates for each store in each webpage. So, since I have the address in each page I tried geocoding to get longlat. This wasn't very accurate way because it seems that geocode snaps to a nearby area and not exactly on the store. Example here.
I tried PlacesService with the reference string for identifying the store's location based on Google's Place profile. Example here. However, there's not an easy way to retrieve the reference string for each store and another issue is that I need hardcoded coordinates to center the map in the area of the store (too much work for 81 stores).
Expected solutions/suggestions:
I would like to fully utilize our Google's Places profile that includes all the stores info. BTW, each store now has a Google+ page created automatically by Google. I would like a suggestion on how to utilize the automatically created Store marker (like in 1st picture) and have the exact same infoWindow like Google's default (1st picture) with some sort of a reference ID from our Google's Places profile.
I apologize for this long question but I had to further explain all my attempts.
