Static Info window only...

           In our last Google Maps API v3 example we saw how info windows appeared on user click. We saw why such a thing is necessary and the benefits of that! Today we will look at a very simple example, where in we will place a single marker on the map! Something like a simple marker example in this post!

          Our today's code is below!

Google Maps API v3 - Simple info window only example

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false">

<script type="text/javascript">
var map;
function click_window()
{
             map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"),
             {
zoom: 5,
                              center: new google.maps.LatLng(22.7964,79.5410),
                              mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeID.ROADMAP
             });

             var html = "This is a single info window!";

   var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow(
             {
content: html,
                              position: new google.maps.LatLng(22.7964,79.5410)
             });

             infowindow.open(map);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="click_window()" onload="GUnload()">
<div id="map" style="width:100%; height: 100%">
</div>
</body>
</html>

            Copy and try out the code for yourself! If you have any queries regarding the code comment on the post or feel free to drop me a mail.

What is GIS?

Once I started writing this blog, I received a number of feedbacks from readers asking me to write something about what exactly GIS is. So here is some information, that will give you an idea about " What is GIS? " A geographic information system (GIS) integrates hardware, software, and data for capturing, managing, analyzing, and displaying all forms of geographically referenced information. GIS allows us to view, understand, question, interpret, and visualize data in many ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps, globes, reports, and charts. A GIS helps you answer questions and solve problems by looking at your data in a way that is quickly understood and easily shared. GIS technology can be integrated into any enterprise information system framework. ...

My first blog!

" W hy is it that there are no Goolge Maps API examples which show India specific data?"...This question kept bothering me all through my learning phase. I always thought why aren't there any examples that use a map which shows Indian locations. Anybody who is new to Google Maps API application development would love to see a location that he knows of on the map! This is what I longed for all the way through and now have decided to put up simple examples and other supporting data for building customised simple Google Maps and all will show locations in India! When starting something new, if one finds something familiar out there, then it gives a feeling of comfort! And this is what I will try to provide to all those out there who are facing a similar problem that I faced! I am not an expert at Google Maps API, I am learning too...But, I will like to help out people along the way! So, all comments from the novice to the profession...

Ground Truth - How Google Builds Maps

Todays's article is cross posted from The Atlantic 's Tech section. The article was posted by Alexis Madrigal who is a senior editor at The Atlantic , where he oversees the Technology channel. So, thanks to The Atlantic and Alexis Madrigal, we will have an exclusive look inside Ground Truth , the secretive program to build the world's best accurate maps. Behind every Google Map, there is a much more complex map that's the key to your queries but hidden from your view. The deep map contains the logic of places: their no-left-turns and freeway on-ramps, speed limits and traffic conditions. This is the data that you're drawing from when you ask Google to navigate you from point A to point B -- and last week, Google showed me the internal map and demonstrated how it was built. It's the first time the company has let anyone watch how the project it calls GT, or "Ground Truth," actually works. Google opened up at a key moment in its evo...
