open google maps through intent for specific location in android
I have not tested this but you could try :
First method:
String uri = String.format(Locale.ENGLISH, "geo:%f,%f", latitude, longitude);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri));
context.startActivity(intent);
EDIT: This might not work with Google maps 7,0
hence you could change the uri to :
Second option:
String geoUri = "http://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:" + lat + "," + lng + " (" + mTitle + ")";
where mTitle
is the name of the location.
Third option:
geo:0,0?q=my+street+address
Fourth option:
String map = "http://maps.google.co.in/maps?q=" + yourAddress;
Hope that works and helps :D..
Get Lat-Lng Using this web-service
http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=" + address + "&sensor=false
Then Pass it to this code
String strUri = "http://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:" + lat + "," + lng + " (" + "Label which you want" + ")";
Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(strUri));
intent.setClassName("com.google.android.apps.maps", "com.google.android.maps.MapsActivity");
startActivity(intent);
I hope it will help you
Thank you.
