Google map using php

Google Map is a desktop/mobile web mapping ads service developed by Google Inc. Google Maps uses an API that allows maps to be embedded or integrated on third-party websites in numerous countries around the world.

Sample Google map using php:

<?php
$addr = urlencode("211, APC Road, Shyam Bazar, Kolkata");
$xmlstr = file_get_contents("http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=$addr&sensor=false");
$xmlarr = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr);
$lat = $xmlarr->result->geometry->location->lat;
$lng = $xmlarr->result->geometry->location->lng;
?>
