Google is inviting developers, designers, and tech savvy individuals to improve their community or government using the Google Places API.
With the Google Places API, you can search for information about a variety of nearby places such as establishments, geographic locations and prominent points of interest. The Google Places API also allows you to tailor your place search results by including your own places and affecting place rankings with check-ins.
Join us in addressing the needs of our communities by using your skills and expertise to develop impactful apps that combine the power of the Google Places API with a diverse set of municipal data sources. Developers of the best apps will win a VIP trip to Google I/O 2013 where your app will be showcased!
