Google Geocoding class

Geocoding is the process of converting addresses (like “1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA”) into geographic coordinates (like latitude 37.423021 and longitude -122.083739), which you can use to place markers or position the map. The Google Maps API Geocoding Service provides a direct way to access a geocoder via an HTTP request.

This PHP class makes it very easy to geocode addresses or reverse geocode latitudes and longitudes.
