This task is to explore Google Maps API and integrate it within our app. We will need this for getting user's location coordinates.

do not understand this? What is the difference between this and this task?

#525

[sumairasaeed]

This task is for exploring Google Maps API , getting App-key and integrating Google Maps API within our app.

In #525 , we will use Google Maps API to capture user's location and write logic for sending and receiving location in a format which can be linked to UI

Worked on this. Read documentation for Google Maps API for integrating with iOS. Worked on integrating the Google Frameworks within our app.
There were two ways given in documentation. One was using Cocoapods. I tried it and it gave error that "[!] Unable to find a specification for GooglePlacePicker" . I then tried other alternate of integrating manually. There is some error in liking libraries and project is not building.
As a next step, i will try to remove and re-create the pods. Error suggests that pod repo is damaged. Other alternative, if previous does not work, as a next step could be to remove Google libraries and link again manually.
API key was generated which will be used in code.
