Google Map Extractor

Google Maps is a universally loved tool which is quite helpful more often than not. Not only does it give you vital directions and information about moving through a city, but it can also provide you additional information about your places of interest, such as websites, phone numbers and opening hours.

However, saving all that information in one place for professional purposes would be a time-consuming task. This is why you could use a program such as Google Map Extractor.

The program’s interface displays the Google Maps app on the right, and you can use it just like you would normally use Google Maps. After performing a search in Maps, you can click Search Now at the top-left of the interface, and the program will create a table with all the data related to your results. You will thus get addresses, phone numbers, website links, ratings, reviews, opening and closing hours, but also links to the images used by Google and the exact longitude and latitude of the places.

All this information is neatly displayed in the table which you can save and export as an XLSX or CSV file, or even as plain text. You can add various filters to the table, and you can even customize the way the program performs searches and saves the search history.

Now I’m not saying that Google Map Extractor is difficult to use, just that the interface doesn’t have the most pleasing design and not all the choices seem obvious from the very beginning. The English isn't the first language of the developers doesn't help either. Nevertheless, Google Map Extractor is a powerful tool that can be useful if you wish to create a detailed database of businesses.
