i want to get the latitude and longitude using the zipcode for android application

(We could force the locale – that the postcode is in the SG– by using"http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?sensor=false&address=POSTCODE,SG".) Simply call this url in a jquery-ajax and you will get the lat long in result.
Google Maps has added a feature where it will highlight in a pink color the borders of a city, postal code or other borders based on your search. To see it yourself, go to Google Maps and search for a city name or even a zip code. You will see a pinkish highlight around the border.
You can get postal code by using Google map's API. You can get the postal code from the json data returned by the API. Provide the lat lng to LatLng constructor.
This is a much simpler solution, assuming the geocoder services are present:
final Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(this); final String zip = "90210"; try { List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocationName(zipCode, 1); if (addresses != null && !addresses.isEmpty()) { Address address = addresses.get(0); // Use the address as needed String message = String.format("Latitude: %f, Longitude: %f", address.getLatitude(), address.getLongitude()); Toast.makeText(this, message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } else { // Display appropriate message when Geocoder services are not available Toast.makeToast(this, "Unable to geocode zipcode", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } } catch (IOException e) { // handle exception } If you love us?
