I'm not sure what you are asking Don't want to store lat/longs? It would be a dumb idea to geocode each of your locations every time someone loaded your webpage - slow and error prone. Geocode your locations once and store the lat/lng, see http://code.google.com/apis/maps/articles/geocodestrat.html and http://code.google.com/apis/maps/articles/phpsqlgeocode.html Want to obscure the exact locations? Can be done in various ways, but if you're going to develop in v3 as recommended you should ask in the v3 group at http://groups.google.com/group/google-maps-js-api-v3 You might be able to use the geometry library to generate a random offset by distance and bearing. Then apply a snap-to-street method. Then compare to your orginal location to see if it is the same street. If not, discard and repeat. That's likely to be long winded so again it would be best to do this ahead of time and store. > > thanks once again for all the help > > On Dec 7, 7:37 pm, davie <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > Hi > > Seehttp://code.google.com/apis/maps/articles/phpsqlajax_v3.html > > This uses API V3 as V2 is depreciated > > > Regards Davie > > > On Dec 7, 4:18 pm, Moghees <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > I am looking to implement a map with pointers from a MySql database > > > which will be updated on a daily basis > > > > can anyone point me in the right direction please > > > > thanks- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text - -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
