Getting Google Maps square chunk image and corner coordinates

I need to get Image object from Google Maps, centered to a given address, and get its corners coordinates. How to achieve this in C#?

Solution

  • Per the terms of service you can not get the chunk images from Google maps, You can use the API to get a image of what you want, see the documentation on how to request a specific address, it is simply a set of url encoded parameters
