How to get latitude & longitude from given address on Android?

I want to get latitude and longitude of particular add开发者_如何学Pythonress . How can i do this ?

This is the sample solution to your question.

OR

List<Address> foundGeocode = null;
/* find the addresses  by using getFromLocationName() method with the given address*/
foundGeocode = new Geocoder(this).getFromLocationName("address here", 1);
foundGeocode.get(0).getLatitude(); //getting latitude
foundGeocode.get(0).getLongitude();//getting longitude

For more details Geocoder

public List<Address> getFromLocationName (String locationName, int maxResults) 

From a Geocoder object, you can call the getFromLocation

public List<Address> getFromLocation (double latitude, double longitude, int maxResults)

It will return a list of Address object that has a method getLocality

Geocoder gcd = new Geocoder(context, Locale.getDefault());
List<Address> addresses = gcd.getFromLocation(lat, lng, 1);
if (addresses.size() > 0) 
    System.out.println(addresses.get(0).getLocality());

for more detail

show the location in google map from address...will get the latitude and longitude using the address...

Geocoder coder = new Geocoder(this);    
        List<Address> address;

  try {
            address = coder.getFromLocationName(strAddress,5);
            if (address == null) {
                return null;
            }
            Address location = address.get(0);
            location.getLatitude();
            location.getLongitude();

            p1 = new GeoPoint((int) (location.getLatitude() * 1E6),
                    (int) (location.getLongitude() * 1E6));

            return p1;

strAddress is string that you pass of address. address variable is address converting and getting address.
