Suppose I am writing a New york in UITextfield and search it via google map sdk in ios.Can i get latitude and longitude of new york via sdk.I want a google map api link like this.
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=1600+Amphitheatre+Parkway,+Mountain+View,+CA&sensor=true_or_false
sorry for bad english writing skills.
API which u used to fetch Geocode will work but you have to pass the correct sensor,
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=1600+Amphitheatre+Parkway,+Mountain+View,+CA&sensor=true
and got the result,
...
"location" : {
"lat" : 37.4219985,
"lng" : -122.0839544
}
...
Sensor - Attribute used to find whether your current location can be tracked or not.
Hope this answers your question.
Thanks,

When using Google API what will be the data that is needed for an application that shows locations of different places,is latitude and longitude will be necessary , the locations that needed to shown is already in Google maps. Or just the address or the name of the place will be enough.
Can anybody help me ?
When placing markers on a map at a minimum you need the lat and long vertices.
You can use a various Google APIS for getting data like a Google Places library to search by a place name or address: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-searchbox
You can also use a reverse geocode service to search by a lat long: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/geocoding-reverse
Or if you have your own data you can create the markers like shown in this example:
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(36.166461, -86.771289);
app.marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: (myLatlng),
data:this,
map: app.map,
title: 'Hello marker!!'
});

i want to get the user location information like city, area etc using html5 geolocation,i tried the below article but with that im getting latitude and longitude, i want to get the city and area information,
http://www.dotnetcurry.com/ShowArticle.aspx?ID=782
When you have the location of the user, you'll need to do a reverse geocoding to get information about the location such as city, etc.
Have a look at the reverse geocoding API for Google Maps.
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(pos){
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(pos.coords.latitude, pos.coords.longitude);
geocoder.geocode({'latLng': latlng}, function(results, status) {
console.log(results);
// Analyze results and find the info you need.
});
});
Check out How to reverse geocode without Google for information about geocoding without using Google Maps.
In Facebook's documentation it says you can find the ID from a URL, and that used to be the case. It doesn't appear to be true anymore.
This example is straight from Facebook's API Documentation:
--------------FACEBOOK DOCS---------------------
The "ids" query parameter also accepts URLs. This is useful for finding IDs of URLs in the Open Graph. For example: https://graph.facebook.com/?ids=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117500/
But when you click on that link it gives you:
{
"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117500/": {
"id": "http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117500/",
"shares": 18226,
"comments": 7
}
}
Which does NOT include the real Facebook ID for this example URL. If I go to the debugger and enter this URL I can find the ID, which is: 380728101301
So how can I find the ID without using the Open Graph Debugger? I need to be able to get IDs through the code on my site, and can't manually visit the debugger every time.. anyone know how to do this now?
Thanks very much!
There is one possibility with FQL:
SELECT url,site,id FROM object_url WHERE url = 'http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117500';

I know how to get trends using API, but i want it by country and top 10.
How can I ? Is that possible?
Tried this one but not working
http://api.twitter.com/1/trends/current.json?count=50
Note that Twitter API v1 is no longer functional. Read announcement
So you should use Twitter API 1.1.
REST method is this: GET trends/place
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/trends/place
You should authenticate with access tokens to reach this data.
Yes, you can.
First, figure out which countries you want to get data for.
Calling
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/trends/available
Will give you a list of all the countries Twitter has trends for.
Suppose you want the trends for the UK. The above tells us that the WOEID is 23424975.
To get the top ten trends for the UK, call
https://api.twitter.com/1/trends/23424975.json
you need to figure out the woeids first use this tool here http://sigizmund.info/woeidinfo/ and then it becomes as easy as a simple function
function get_trends($woeid){
return json_decode(file_get_contents("http://api.twitter.com/1/trends/".$woeid.".json?exclude=hashtags", true), false);
}
Here you go, I wrote a simple sample script for you. Check It Out Here Twitter Trends Getter
Hope it helps!
I'm a 'bit' late to the party on this one but you can use:
npm i twit --save
then,
const Twit = require('twit');
const config = require('./config');
const T = new Twit(config);
const params = {
id: '23424829',
id: '23424975',
id: '23424977'
// count: 3
};
T.get('trends/place', params, gotData, limit);
function gotData(err, data, response) {
var tweets = data;
console.log(JSON.stringify(tweets, undefined, 2));
}
You have to Complete Authentication using Api Key to Fetch Results in JSON.
Another Thing Keep in Mind Twitter Api is Limited.
If you are Making Website for Top Twitter Trends then Visit this Url https://twitter-trends.vlivetricks.com/, Right Click >> Copy Source Code and Replace only Trends Name using Your Json Variable.
I am new to html 5 geolocation, Is there any site or examples where it shows how, i can use html geolocation api to track the location of other devices. Also, for example how can i use use HTML5 geolocation to find the nearest car dealer say 5 or 10 miles from me?
Any examples sample would be really helpfull.
thanks
I can't speak to tracking devices, but i've been writing something that might help with the second part of your question.
//check browser support
if(navigator.geolocation) {
//do the geolocation stuff
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
//make a string out of the coordinates
var initloc_str = position.coords.latitude + ', ' + position.coords.longitude;
//pass it to a function that searches for donut shops near the coordinates
donutSearch(initloc_str);
});
} else { // if no browser support, error message or whatever
My donut shop search function is based on the local search in Google's Ajax search API, I found this article on webmonkey helpful for that bit. That API was recently deprecated but I haven't figured out how to do local search with their new Custom Search API yet.
You can register a function for tracking positions of a user:
var watchId = navigator.geolocation.watchPosition(function(position) {
console.log(position.coords.latitude);
console.log(position.coords.longitude);
});
And you can unregister:
navigator.geolocation.clearWatch(watchId);
This site will give you a awesome overview of the HTML5 geolocation Capability.
