A Trip Planning App that tailors travel itineraries based on user preferences and providing detailed information about destinations; making travel planning less daunting and more enjoyable.
Using Places API, searching for Tim Hortons in Vancouver for example:
We are able to get lat, long and street address with Places API call, hence Geocode API isn't required
What we can use:
We could extract type of establishment to help with choosing icons for the pins on the map
User ratings and price level information are also available (price level can be used to determine tier of spending for location to help us with budget estimates for user)
Further considerations:
With chain businesses, we will need to come up with a solution to only present 1 location on our Map view.
E.g., from the image, there are 20 Tim Horton's in Vancouver
