The new Google Maps Android API v2 allows you to offer interactive, feature-rich maps to users of your Android application.

With the Google Google Maps Android API v2, you can add maps based on Google Maps data to your application. The API automatically handles access to Google Maps servers, data downloading, map display, and response to map gestures. You can also use API calls to add markers, polygons, and overlays to a basic map, and to change the user's view of a particular map area. These objects provide additional information for map locations, and allow user interaction with the map.
