Google API to Get Weather Information
Matthew Harrington
I need to fetch the weather information based on the user's current location. Please provide me the Google API to get the weather info.
I am using , but Google is returning some error:
We're sorry...
... but your computer or network may be sending automated queries. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now.
See Google Help for more information.
When I looked it up on Google, I found out that Google API is down.
Please guide me which one is the latest Google API to get the weather info.

I've been using the first link. Its free like Open Street Maps.
EDIT:
Here's the basic code to get the JSON:
NSError *error = nil;
NSData *jsonData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@""]];
if (jsonData) { id jsonObjects = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:NSJSONReadingMutableContainers error:&error]; if (error) { NSLog(@"error is %@", [error localizedDescription]); // Handle Error and return return; } NSArray *keys = [jsonObjects allKeys]; // values in foreach loopDic] for (NSString *key in keys) { NSLog(@"%@ is %@",key, [jsonObjects objectForKey:key]); }
} else { // Handle Error
}Add that to the viewDidLoad
