Programming with Google Maps API

The Google Maps API lets you embed Google Maps in your own web pages with JavaScript. The API provides a number of utilities for manipulating maps (just like on the http://maps.google.com web page) and adding content to the map through a variety of services, allowing you to create robust maps applications on your website.

How do I start?

1. Sign up for a Google Maps API key.
2. Read the Maps API Concepts.
3. Check out some Maps examples.
4. Read the Maps API Reference.
