Join Google, Thermopylae Sciences + Technology (T-Sciences), and Carahsoft on Wednesday, November 18, at 2:00pm ET to learn about Google's Places API, one of the more powerful components of the Google Maps Platform (GMP). The Places API is based on Google's unparalleled points-of-interest database that includes over 150 million global places (e.g., schools, museums, etc.) and businesses. This webinar will introduce the Places API and then focus on the Autocomplete function, which is broadly used in eCommerce applications.
Join us for this webinar to discuss general Autocomplete use cases while highlighting government use cases, such as public-facing forms for receiving government services, that would benefit from Autocomplete. Indeed, government applications would see gains from the same kinds of return on investment (ROI) that businesses harvest.
Key ROIs that accrue include:
- Better user experience
- Fewer transaction abandonments
- Obtaining address information from customers/citizens in a consistent, well structured format
Besides Autocomplete, other Places API capabilities include:
- Geocoding
- Places search
- Places details
- Time zone
- Elevation
