Highlighting borders of state and cities of US in Google Map API 3

Viewed 49148

I have a scenario where I have to highlight borders and shade a state or city after geocoding it (when I got the lang and lat).

How can I do this, do I need to have a complete information of a city to surround it with polylines? Or is there a way that map API can do this for me.

Now the basic map example includes a "mashup" of data. When identifying data is fed to the web service, the resulting output can pinpoint locations on the map. It shows how a geographic Map Marker is placed on the map to identify a specific location. Map Markers can use the default icon (shown) or a custom image, gauge, or even a chart. Optionally, the map can be configured to display a Map Marker Info window, containing additional location-specific data, when the marker is clicked.

It includes data-driven, colored regions (in this case, representing postal codes) overlaid a map of eg Washington, DC. Logi Info can work with GIS boundary data to produce region overlays for states, counties, cities, school districts, and other areas. Like the Map Marker, regions can be clicked to display a pop-up information window with detail data.
