Summary: <p>This video will is part of a multi-part series on looking at how we can leverage some of Google’s API’s to build a fancy mapping tool that’s driven from a Google Docs Spreadsheet. If you haven’t worked with Google Docs or Zend_Gdata before, I suggest you take a look at the <a href="http://www.zendcasts.com/introduction-to-the-google-docs-api/2009/08/">video introducing Zend_Gdata and the Google -Zend libraries</a>. This video looks at how we can build our own very simple web service adapter for <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/index.html">Google’s geocoding service</a>. As with most zendcasts, I invite you to <a href="http://zendcasts.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/zc31-geo-targetting-for-google-maps-web-service/zc31-geo-targetting-for-google-maps-web-service.zip">download the source code</a>, <a href="http://code.google.com/p/zendcasts/source/browse/trunk/zc31-geo-targetting-for-google-maps-web-service/">browse it online</a> and <a href="http://www.zendcasts.com/forum/post/66/">discuss the video in the forums</a>.<br> </p>
