Hello zeeshan,

what about this: http://www.geonames.org/maps/reverse-ge ... rbyStreets
It grabs locations near to a given Lat/Lng.

Or do you need more like all "Pizza-Sellers" nearby :?:

Hello zeeshan,

Zip :arrow: Lat/Lng is called GeoCoding (or ReverseGeoCoding ^^)

There is already is an Class GeoCoder in Android, which is not yet working.
Code: Select all
http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?output=xml&oe=utf-8&q=69198,Germany&key=YOUR_GOOGLE_APP_ID_HERE


That GeoCoder-Class is also used to find nearby business,if it would be working:
