How to collect google map informations in java application?

Question

I want to get the "Churches" nearby someplace, for example "Singapore".

Very similar with Google map: Search nearby----first use Google map to search one place, then click it and choose "Search nearby" , after that it display the related info's, images, locations.

I want to collect these information based Google map, insert them to my defined database. But I have no idea on how implementation it and what I need resort to?

There's a developer's guide for Maps Java API . It will describe you how to use the maps using Java. For searching the stuff you need on the map, you'll probably need this guide too.
