Droplet for Google Maps that does not require an API Key

Can change address, zoom, height and width.
Default zoom: 14
Width:  500
Height:  500


[[GoogleMap?address=The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW Washington DC&zoom=14&zoom=14&width=500&height=500]]


if (!isset($zoom)) $zoom=14;
if (!isset($width)) $width=500;
if (!isset($height)) $height=500;

$data = file_get_contents("http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=".urlencode($address)."&sensor=false");
$obj = json_decode($data);
  if ($obj) {
    if (isset($obj->results[0]->geometry->location)) {
      $loc = $obj->results[0]->geometry->location;
      $array = array('latitude'=>$loc->lat, 'longitude'=>$loc->lng);
     $string_address = implode(',', $array);
    } else {
      throw new Exception('Lookup failed and/or address does not exist!');
    }
  } else {
    throw new Exception('Lookup failed and/or address does not exist!');
  }

       #map_canvas {
