How can I select particular city on google map?

Question

Answer 1

Assuming you have the latitude and longitude (31.2 and 121.5 in this example) You need to call setCenter on the GMap2 object (for Google Maps version 2.*):

map.setCenter(new GLatLng(31.2, 121.5), 6);

If you don't have the latitude and longitude for the particular city (and want it to work for any city name), then you need to use the Geocoding to map from a name to a latitude longitude.

To do this you need to have a look at the documentation for the GClientGeocoder object. You will need to call getLocations, passing in a string containing the city name you are after. Once you get your asynchronous response back with a latitude, longitude, you can set the center of your map at that position.

You can find an example of geocoding several city names here.
