Does anyone know how to change the boundaries of a map with the google maps api? I have a map currently that shows the full world and if I zoom out it shows multiple copies of the full world. The problem is that I only want to show north america, and I only want to show it once. Can anybody help out? Thanks!

There's no API to restrict map boundary in Google Maps API. You may can accept external solution, or consider using other map library like OpenLayers or Leaflet, which supports max-extent feature.

We have a requirement of using Google MAPS API to show resources in a state and we are able to show all the base map layers like Terrain and Satellite. but we are required to show Topo layer which i think is not available as a Base Map layer. What is the best way to go forward implementing TOPO layer using google map API? Any help is appreciated.
I have an embedded Google map (the kind you get an embedded iframe for using the Google maps site) with multiple markers on it. This is good so far as it goes but I need another function.
What I want to do is allow a person visiting the page to change to centre point by entering their postal code. I'd like them to also be able to change the zoom factor.
While there is massive amounts of documentation on using Google maps and on using the Google maps API, what I'm missing is a way to use the existing embedded Google map rather than creating a new blank map and populating it with markers.
The difference is important because it's quite easy to use the Google maps site to upload a .csv file with names and addresses that the Google map sorts out and displays. Doing the same thing with a blank map and javascript each time the page is loaded runs you up against the API transaction limits.
How can I tell the Google map API to connect to an embedded map instead of creating an empty one?
Is there a way to highlight areas with Google Map JS API v3?
I've seen some websites do it
here are some examples:

http://www.homely.com.au/werribee-wyndham-melbourne-greater-victoria

This is called a polygon.
See the Google Docs for information.
You can manually set polygon points in JS.

Please help to create a heat map for some specific location with custom data.
If I search 'province of huelva, ES' in Google Maps web page, I get a marker and the province boundaries with a color layer, that even is filled when zoom out.
It is possible to use Google Maps API for getting that polygon (or layer, json object, ...) and even change its color just providing a query string like in the Google Maps web page?
For now I must use regions LatLng values for drawing a polygon, but would be great if I can get the polygon only providing a search string.
Thank you guys!
