Google Map V2 Check Whether The Point Contains In Area

all. I am trying to check the point that user taps on the google map whether in specific area, does google map api v2 have any method that i can quick to use?

Solution 1:

You can use LatLngBounds. It has contains method which returns true when given LatLng is inside bounds. If you want to get current visible region I recommend reading: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14700745/759007 .

Solution 2:

You should use Location APIs

Solution 3:

yes you can using map.setOnMapClickListener which will return the latlng and you can use this where ever you need:

map.setOnMapClickListener(newOnMapClickListener() {
    @OverridepublicvoidonMapClick(LatLng point) {
        // your code                    
    }    
}
