Google Maps AutoComplete

Post by PointsWell »

I'm currently trying to decide on the best approach to manage the complexity of international address formats in my app.

I had thought that perhaps it might be easier to rely on the work already done by others with a deeper interest in the subject (i.e. Google).

Has anyone used Autocomplete for Addresses? https://developers.google.com/maps/docu ... tocomplete

And if you have, do you have any advice / sample code that you'd be willing to share?

Hi PointsWell,

Did you have any success with this? We're looking to get autocomplete operating in Aware IM (for Australian addresses) as it works at https://mappify.io/app/#/addresses_services

We have selected http://Mappify.io because it provides reverse geocoding of Australian state and federal electorates.

Kendo offer the capacity to point a field as a data service as per http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/contro ... e/overview

I believe the forum user with the nickname "bondicoffee" has been able to successfully integrate this (but I could be wrong). Try sending him a PM

I finally got this working myself.

I've attached a BSV demonstrating Auto Completion of Australian addresses into an Aware IM plain text form field using the Mappify.io service.
