[GIS] How to plot a point on a static Google map [png]

coordinate systemgoogle mapslinuxpng

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=Brooklyn+Bridge,New+York,NY&zoom=13&size=600×300&maptype=roadmap&markers=color:blue%7Clabel:S%7C40.702147,-74.015794&markers=color:green%7Clabel:G%7C40.711614,-74.012318&markers=color:red%7Ccolor:red%7Clabel:C%7C40.718217,-73.998284&sensor=false

shows a static map which is a png file.

If I do have a coordinate which lies between the coordinates of this static map file, then how should I plot that point on this map (which is basically a png)?

EDIT:

I would be doing it offline. Can't use the maps API. Will save that map as a PNG, then I have to plot the points.

Check the API here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/staticmaps/#Markers
