Is this a LabVIEW question?

Hello All,

Please let me know is it possible in LabVIEW (or) not.

Yes, it is all in the API.

Google Maps has an API that you can hook into from whatever programming language you desire. 

Converting an address to lat/long is known as "geocoding".  There's a ton of resources online to help you with that.

As far as the distance is concerned, you can do a rough calculation with some trig between the two lat/long positions.

If you're interested in the route distance from Maps, you'll need to use their API.

Dear Altenbach & Snowmule,

Thank you so much for your reply.

I found very useful information about my issue on this link. 

(https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/webservices/)

Now I understood how to get the Lat & Lang (gecoding). But Please tell me how can I get the Search points. 

I mean if user selecting particular place then I want to read all search points for selected area. After that I can read Directions between Search points and Distance calculation by using GMap APIs.

Please let me know if anyone knows about this (API/any other soln).

Best Regards,
