Hi, I'm new to developing with google maps api. With API v3 is it
possible to locate places by name, or particuarly 'type of civil
building' e.g. hospital or police station.. rather than having to
specify a postal address? When you search with google maps or google
earth you can easily find hospitals but I can't seem to get any
results using the gecode request unless there is actually an address
in the search region like 'hospital road' or 'police street'....
here is the code I'm using:
var geoc = new google.maps.Geocoder();
geoc.geocode
({address:addressString,region:regionString,bounds:myBounds},function
(results,status){});
