Page Summary
-
This example demonstrates how to use the Google Maps Geocoding service to find an address ("483 George St.") while restricting the results to a specific postal code ("2000") and country ("AU").
-
The provided code snippets show implementations in both TypeScript and JavaScript, along with HTML and CSS for displaying the results on a map.
-
Component restrictions are used to narrow down the search area and ensure the returned location is within the desired area of Sydney, Australia.
-
Users can interact with the map by clicking a "Geocode" button, which triggers the geocoding request and places a marker on the map at the identified location.
-
This sample can be run locally using Git and Node.js, or tested directly through provided links to JSFiddle and Google Cloud Shell.
This example creates a request to the geocoding service that restricts the results to a particular postal area within Sydney, Australia.
