Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way to recover all destinations 15 minutes away from an origin point and display it in Google Maps. (15 minutes is an example)

Any thought ?

Best,

Jérémy

Any thought? Here's a thought:
If a "destination" is a point, (lat,lon), then the number of
destinations at any given time or distance is infinite! :-)

Anyway, here's a driving radius example (V2):

You can adapt it to go by time instead of distance.

Hi Marcelo,

Thx for the quick reply. I'll take a look to your example and see how
to change it.

Best,

This is called an isochrone. Unfortunately the Maps API doesn't have any facility to display them.. This is quite a hard problem to solve, if you're talking about arbitrary center points.

See this article on the OSM wiki for more info:
