Answer 1

You can use it like,

Showing Particular Place,

Uri uri = Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q=22.99948365856307,72.60040283203125
                                                               (Maninagar)");
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
startActivity(intent);

Showing Route between to Places,

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr="+23.0094408+","+72.5988541+"&
                            daddr="+22.99948365856307+","+72.60040283203125));
startActivity(intent);
