Lancées en juin 2005, les API (Application Programming Interface) Google Maps permettent aux développeurs de réaliser des applications basées sur les cartes numériques de Google. Il est ainsi devenu possible d’intégrer facilement des données géolocalisées sur un fond de carte Google Maps dans un site web, qu’il soit à finalité professionnelle ou personnelle. Google vient de publier la version 3 de ces API qui proposent notamment un meilleur support des périphériques mobiles (iPhone, Android, etc.).Cet ouvrage décrit l’essentiel des fonctions et de ces outils de développement, en se focalisant notamment sur les nouveaux usages rendus possibles par le succès des smartphones.
