A Google Client Geocoder based package, which allows you to:
- Use a Google client geocoder enabled, xAL - Extensible Address Language compliant address field in your forms (by gcg).
- Add addresses to your nodes and display the address either on a static or dynamic Google Map (by gcg_node).
- Automatically categorize the content by location (by gcg_taxonomy).
The package depends on the Country codes API and requires a Google Maps API Key.
