Thank . This post was very helpful.
I want to extract co-ordinates of points at regular interval on a google maps route. Is there anyway to do this using the encoded polyline Algorithm.

Potentially. Can you retrieve the route as an encoded polyline? If so, you can decode it, and loop through whatever interval you want.

i can retrieve the route as an encoded polyline. I don’t understand the looping through interval part….the source, destination n waypoint co-ordinates are encoded to get the polyline right!? but what if the waypoints are not at regular intervals??
M sorry ….m a rookie at this….first interaction with real world problems so my questions can be a bit stupid…but i really need to understand this. Thank You.

Thanks for the article. Am I the only one to whom the links for Mark McClure’s articles does not work?

Unfortunately McClure’s site has been down for a while. I haven’t found another source of his stuff or anything comparable.
