# Extended NOMADS Objects

Google Maps Interface |

A Google Maps interface using Google Maps API v3 is one of the extended controls available in PxPlus. Google Maps is a Web mapping service application and technology provided by Google Inc.

#### Note:
Access to the Internet is a requirement to use the service.

The PxPlus Google Maps Extended Control offers access to a wide range of features available in the Google Maps API, including map-related properties, methods and events, marker and info window processing, as well as geocoder functions and directions requests. A built-in link on all maps also gives the user access to the Google Maps Web page and additional functionality.

It is recommended that developers obtain an API Key from Google to do development involving Google maps. Without an API Key, a darkened map with the text "For development purposes only" will display. See Adding a Google Maps API Key.
