Question

can we find area on earth using any web service powered by Google or something like this. like i can find elevation and directions using.

String url = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/elevation/xml?" +
                "locations="+String.valueOf(latitude)+","
                +String.valueOf(longitude)
                +"&sensor=true"; 

and

Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, 
                Uri.parse("http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr="+one+","+two+"&daddr="+three+","+four+""));
                startActivity(intent);
