Overview
Learn how to import GeoJSON data from either a local or remote source, and display it on your map. This tutorial uses the map below to illustrate various techniques to import data into maps.
The section below displays the entire code you need to create the map in this tutorial.
var map;
function initMap() {
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 2,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(2.8,-187.3),
mapTypeId: 'terrain'
});
// Create a <script> tag and set the USGS URL as the source.
var script = document.createElement('script');
// This example uses a local copy of the GeoJSON stored at
// http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/2.5_week.geojsonp
script.src = 'https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/json/earthquake_GeoJSONP.js';
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(script);
}
// Loop through the results array and place a marker for each
// set of coordinates.
window.eqfeed_callback = function(results) {
for (var i = 0; i < results.features.length; i++) {
var coords = results.features[i].geometry.coordinates;
var latLng = new google.maps.LatLng(coords[1],coords[0]);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latLng,
map: map
});
}
}
<div id="map"></div>
/* Always set the map height explicitly to define the size of the div
* element that contains the map. */
#map {
height: 100%;
}
/* Optional: Makes the sample page fill the window. */
html, body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
<!-- Replace the value of the key parameter with your own API key. --> <script async defer src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyCkUOdZ5y7hMm0yrcCQoCvLwzdM6M8s5qk&callback=initMap"> </script>

top-right corner of the code window.

window.eqfeed_callback = function(results) {
for (var i = 0; i < results.features.length; i++) {
var coords = results.features[i].geometry.coordinates;
var latLng = new google.maps.LatLng(coords[1],coords[0]);

Loading data
This section shows you how to load data from either the same domain as your Maps JavaScript API application, or from a different one.
Loading data from the same domain
The Google Maps Data Layer
provides a container for arbitrary geospatial data
(including GeoJSON). If your data is in a file hosted on the same domain
as your Maps JavaScript API application, you can load it
using the map.data.loadGeoJson() method. The file must be on the same domain,
but you can host it in a different
subdomain. For example, you can make a request to files.example.com from
www.example.com.
map.data.loadGeoJson('data.json');
Loading data across domains
You can also request data from a domain other than your own, if the domain's configuration allows such a request. The standard for this permission is called Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS). If a domain has allowed cross-domain requests, its response header should include the following declaration:
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Use the Chrome Developer Tools (DevTools) to find out if a domain has enabled CORS.
Loading data from such a domain is the same as loading JSON from the same domain:
map.data.loadGeoJson('http://www.CORS-ENABLED-SITE.com/data.json');
Requesting JSONP
The target domain must support requests for JSONP in order to use this technique.
To request JSONP, use createElement() to add a script tag
to the head of your document.
var script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = 'http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/2.5_week.geojsonp';
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(script);
When the script runs, the target domain passes the data as an argument
to another script, usually named callback(). The target domain defines the
callback script name, which is the first name on the page when you load the
target URL in a browser.
For example, load
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/2.5_week.geojsonp
in your browser window to reveal the callback name as eqfeed_callback.
You must define the callback script in your code:
function eqfeed_callback(response) {
map.data.addGeoJson(response);
}
Use the addGeoJson() method to place the parsed GeoJSON data on the map.
Styling the data
You can change the appearance of your data by adding GeoJSON data to a Map object. Read the developer's guide for more information on styling your data.

- GeoJSON is a widely used open format for encoding geographic data, based on JSON (JavaScript Object Notation). JavaScript tools and methods designed for JSON data also work with GeoJSON. Read the developer's guide for more information.
- JSONP stands for padded JSON. It is a communication method used in JavaScript programs that run in web browsers, to request data from a server in a different domain.
