The Google Maps API does not include anything for this. It's a single- answer API -- provide an address (or partial address) and it will return a single point or a collection of possible matches; provide a geographic coordinate and it will provide the nearest address it can. There is no method of "getClosestLocalities" or something similar. However, it's possible to implement it yourself using the geonames data. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
