Hi All,

<apex:page standardController="Account" sidebar="false" showHeader="false">

<head>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var map;
var geocoder;
var address;

function initialize() {
map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
map.setCenter(new GLatLng(40.730885,-73.997383), 15);
map.addControl(new GLargeMapControl);
GEvent.addListener(map, "click", getAddress);
geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
}

function getAddress(overlay, latlng) {
if (latlng != null) {
address = latlng;
geocoder.getLocations(latlng, showAddress);
}
}

function showAddress(response) {
map.clearOverlays();
if (!response || response.Status.code != 200) {
alert("Status Code:" + response.Status.code);
} else {
place = response.Placemark[0];
point = new GLatLng(place.Point.coordinates[1],place.Point.coordinates[0]);
marker = new GMarker(point);
map.addOverlay(marker);
marker.openInfoWindowHtml(
'<b>orig latlng:</b>' + response.name + '<br/>' +
'<b>latlng:</b>' + place.Point.coordinates[1] + "," + place.Point.coordinates[0] + '<br>' +
'<b>Status Code:</b>' + response.Status.code + '<br>' +
'<b>Status Request:</b>' + response.Status.request + '<br>' +
'<b>Address:</b>' + place.address + '<br>' +
'<b>Accuracy:</b>' + place.AddressDetails.Accuracy + '<br>' +
'<b>Country code:</b> ' + place.AddressDetails.Country.CountryNameCode);
}
}

$(document).ready(function() {

var myOptions = {
zoom: 15,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
mapTypeControl: false
}

var map;
var marker;

var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var address = "{!Account.BillingStreet}, " + "{!Account.BillingCity}, "+ "{!Account.Billingstate}, " + "{!Account.BillingPostalCode}, " + "{!Account.BillingCountry}";

var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: "<b>{!Account.Name}</b><br>{!Account.BillingStreet}<br>{!Account.BillingCity}, {!Account.Billingstate}, {!Account.BillingPostalCode}<br>{!Account.BillingCountry}"
});

geocoder.geocode( { address: address}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK && results.length) {
if (status != google.maps.GeocoderStatus.ZERO_RESULTS) {

//create map
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), myOptions);
//center map
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);

//create marker
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: results[0].geometry.location,
map: map,
title: "{!Account.Name}",
draggable:true


});

//add listeners
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map,marker);
});
google.maps.event.addListener(infowindow, 'closeclick', function() {
map.setCenter(marker.getPosition());
});

}

} else {
$('#map').css({'height' : '15px'});
$('#map').html("Oops! {!Account.Name}'s billing address could not be found, please make sure the address is correct.");
resizeIframe();
}
});

function resizeIframe() {
var me = window.name;
if (me) {
var iframes = parent.document.getElementsByName(me);
if (iframes && iframes.length == 1) {
height = document.body.offsetHeight;
iframes[0].style.height = height + "px";
}
}
}

Are you using any controller?

if yes then 

Call one Actionfunction in page for every drag event for the marker in map.

Be Sure pass latitude and Longitudeof that marker location in the actionfunction parameter .

then in controller using googlemap api service get the detail of that address.

Assign that value in that account and update.

 

if you have any more query then ask me?
