finding nearby locations [closed]
How to get the locations nearby me? I've got a latitude and location. Based on this, I want to get nearest locations.
How can this be done?
I assume by 'locations' you mean places/venues/stores/etc?
There are several Location Based Services that provide APIs to retrieve lists of nearby venues.
- SimpleGeo: https://simplegeo.com/products/places/
- Gowalla: http://gowalla.com/api/docs
- Foursquare: http://foursquare.com/apps/
If you are using Gowalla, there's http://code.google.com/p/gowalla-java/ which should get you up and running quickly to access nearby places.
