Finding address by distance value, in Google Maps Api?


I want to find a specific address that, is neither user-configurable nor static or known in advance. In other words I want my application to be able to calculate what address is placed in a distance away from a known location.

Is there a way to define the address or lat/lng, of a place which is placed in a specific distance away from a known location(specific address or lat/,lmg point in map already known). I mean by using the Google Maps Api, can i define what's the address of a place that is 5 meters away from a known location?

To make it more clear, would it be possible to get the address that is in the middle of the distance(known) of two known addresses, especially by using walking(mode) roads for example?

Thnx in advance

  • The Map API and its associated database is not designed for your requirements. You would require to create your own database or find a vendor of one in the country you require. For example the UK Post Office supply PAF OR for US
