Google Maps API
The Google Maps Scraper API allows you to easily scrape Google Maps by simply sending an HTTP request.
To enable this engine, set the engine=google_maps parameter.
Interacting with the Google Maps scraper is quite straightforward. As opposed to the Google Search API, which can take a lot of parameters and allows more flexibility in customizing the response, the Google Maps API has fewer options, but the data it returns is still as rich and accurate.
