Is there a way to get the polygon boundaries of City in a JSON format using google maps api?

Best Answer

You can get polygon coordenates in json for using with googlemaps using openstreetmap. Go to http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/ search a place like "Partido de Ituzaingó"

click on "details"

Look for OSM ID and copy it (control+c), example: 2018776

paste the ID in http://polygons.openstreetmap.fr/index.py and download the polygon
