Google Maps API<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Google Maps has a variety of APIs to choose from according to the desirable functionality of the developer. The available APIs are divided into three categories of developing languages; the iOS , Android and web services. Each category has subdivisions of specific APIs which are described in detail for their functionalities and uses in the Developer\u2019s Documentation [1].<\/p>\n

Our website focuses on displaying the location of each venue on a map. As a result we are using the Google Maps Embedded API. It is a web service API that allows the developers to use an interactive map, or a Street Panorama in their site with simple HTTP requests.<\/p>\n
