Get time for reaching out a place from current location - ios

Is it possible to get the reaching time to a particular place from current location latitude longitude to a particular place's latitude longitude in a bicycle?
Or may be i should use API to do the same.
Thanks.

There is an API for finding time from your current location to destination location. (don't know about bicycle transport type)
Below API returns you the possible route to reach at your destination location with distance & how much time your need to reach to the destination place.
Google API
I hope it will help you.

Get Exact latitude,longitude against an address

I am using goole geocoding api to fetch latitude and longitude of a particular address, for some cases it gives me closest to my desired location while some time the position returned by google is many meters away from my given address.My main concern here to ask is, is google the best geocoding provider of there are any third party solutions provide accurate latitude, longitude?
My google API format is something like this
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=[My address, street 123, house 123]&key=[GOOGLE_API_KEY]
Please help out, Thanks :)

Check if a location exists in a route in Map API

I'm using MapBox iOS SDK for showing route between two locations. I would like to know if there is any possibility to check whether a location lies in a route.
I need this functionality so that if any incident happen one location and if that location lies in the route, I need to alert the user about this and need to show the alternate route.
For e.g.:- Say I have plotted a route between location A and location B. I want to check if location C lies in the route between A and B. Any suggestion from MapBox Api or google maps Api is welcomed.
you can get a list of coordinate from mapbox route, then i think calculate distance from points to your interested point. it can yield an acceptable result

search nearby places from database [swift]

I am developing an app which allows users to search nearby place according to the radius provided by the user. I have some places stored in a realm database with the latitude and longitude of that place. I am able to get the users current latitude and longitude but i don't know how to implement the logic to present the user with places that are closest to him. I can calculate the distance between users current location and a particular location using CLLocationDistance = currentlocation.distanceFromLocation(destinationLocation).
Please point me in the right direction or provide me with a sample code.
If it's not possible with Realm then let me know which database solution is the best option.
This isn't currently possible in native Realm queries, but it's something that's actively being worked on! (see https://github.com/realm/realm-cocoa/pull/2199 for a current pull request)

Get timezones based on zipcode

I want to get the current time based on my input zipcode in php.
E.g. If i will enter 71020 then I want the accurate time of that location.
Is there any web service exists to which I can make a call by sending parameter as zipcode.
Please help me out.
Thanks
First use a service that will give you the latitude and longitude on a zip code. There are many, but an easy one is GeoNames. If you search here on StackOverflow or Google, you will find plenty of others.
Then take a look at the many different ways you can resolve a time zone from a latitude and longitude.

Locating closest GPS marker from Geonames database

I am developing an Android application that uses the geonames.org database. I only use the city/populated place category and their corresponding coordinates as provided by geonames.
I want the user to be able to provide his/her GPS coordinates and get a result back with the closest cities/populated places and their coordinates.
Even if the user is in a city I want that city's coordinates to be displayed along with the more distant ones.
Can this be done without the help of google or a web service? I might host the world city geolocations on my own server.
Thanks!
Since posting this I have found the answer to my own question. MongoDB supports geospatial indexing. Make sure that the longitude and latitude field is saved in one string and point the geospatial index to your loc: field. You can then perform queries with a bounding box to find closest locations within a certain radius for example. More about MongoDB geospatial indexing can be found here: http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Geospatial+Indexing
