I want to create a composite address locator in ArcGIS map 10.8.1.
In that composite address locator, I want to add Bing Geocoding service as one of the address locator. Is it possible?

I need to find address of an organization programmatically using Google Knowledge Graph API, but it is not returning address. When i try the same search on Google, it is showing the address in the widgets on right side . Does Google have any other API from where we can get the address from the company name?
The Knowledge Graph API does not expose addresses. Depending on what type of organization you are looking for you could try the Google Places API.
I'm using Bing Maps on Windows store app (XAML).
I have the longitude and the latitude and I want to get the address (if it exists) of the location.
How can I do it?
Thanks!
You want to do what is called reverse geocoding. Take a look at the SearchManager class: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn306041.aspx This will let you reverse geocode your coordinates and get the address.
Alternatively you can also use the Bing Maps REST services:
This would be more work than using the search manager, but wouldn't require loading an interactive map first.

Since it sounds like you are new to using Bing Maps in Windows Store apps I'd recommend downloading a free copy of my eBook on creating location intelligent Windows Store apps. It shows how to do this an a lot more. You can get a copy of it here: http://rbrundritt.wordpress.com/my-book/
It's a general question for any programming language that can use google maps api...
Is there a way i can get specific locations provided by web sites that use google maps with their own location marks or location info.
For example yellow pages will offer locations that you won't get if you search for it simply from the official google maps web site.
What if also this website doesn't provide API to parse data from?
For further example , a web site may have a map having all locations of restaurants in Canada for instance so i want to get the same information in this map to import it in my map inside my application.
The sites you are referring to have the address and geocode information in their own database. They send you the data in response to your request and render it on the map in your browser using the client-side script API that google map provides.
If that's the case and the site didn't provide a public data service, then no, you can't get those data using the normal way.
i have a question regarding googlemap api version3,
basically we are already using google map api driving distance and geo code functionality within our internal web application, for that we are paying for google on our google map key,
so my question is on old google map v2 we did have to encrypt our map key and post back to google in order to get work geocode or driving distance, and at the same way do we still have to encrypt the google map key with map api V3 ? or we dont need the map key for google map V3 ?
thanks
Taken from: Google Maps API
The Google Maps JavaScript API v3 does not require an API key to
function correctly. However, we strongly encourage you to load the
Maps API using an APIs Console key which allows you to monitor your
application's Maps API usage
Say I want to retrieve a list of all addresses of Rome.
How do I achieve this programmatically in Google Maps API, or any other web service? I don't want the actual location of the addresses, just a list of the names of the addresses.
You cannot do that with the Google Maps API.
You can do reverse geocoding (both on the server-side or on the client-side), but with reverse geocoding you pass one coordinate and you are returned the address of that point only. The Google Maps API does not return all the addresses of a particular area.
