De forma predeterminada, los lugares de interés aparecen en el Mapa base junto con sus íconos correspondientes. Los lugares de interés incluyen parques, escuelas, edificios gubernamentales y mucho más. Además, los POI comerciales aparecen de forma predeterminada en el mapa cuando el tipo de mapa es kGMSTypeNormal. Estos últimos representan empresas como tiendas, restaurantes, hoteles, etc.
Un LPI corresponde a un ID de lugar, según se define en el SDK de Places para iOS. Por ejemplo, los parques recreativos son POIs, pero los elementos como las fuentes de agua no suelen considerarse como tales (a menos que tengan cierta importancia histórica o nacional).

Cómo mostrar detalles en una ventana de información
Los POIs aparecen en el mapa de forma predeterminada, pero no hay una IU para clic predeterminada (la API no muestra automáticamente una ventana de información ni ninguna otra interfaz de usuario cuando el usuario presiona un POI). En el siguiente ejemplo, se muestra cómo usar un marcador para mostrar una ventana de información de un PDI:
Swift
// Declare GMSMarker instance at the class level.letinfoMarker=GMSMarker()// Attach an info window to the POI using the GMSMarker.funcmapView(_mapView:GMSMapView,didTapPOIWithPlaceIDplaceID:String,name:String,location:CLLocationCoordinate2D){infoMarker.snippet=placeIDinfoMarker.position=locationinfoMarker.title=nameinfoMarker.opacity=0;infoMarker.infoWindowAnchor.y=1infoMarker.map=mapViewmapView.selectedMarker=infoMarker}
Objective-C
// Declare a GMSMarker instance at the class level.GMSMarker*infoMarker;// Attach an info window to the POI using the GMSMarker.-(void)mapView:(GMSMapView*)mapViewdidTapPOIWithPlaceID:(NSString*)placeIDname:(NSString*)namelocation:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)location{infoMarker=[GMSMarkermarkerWithPosition:location];infoMarker.snippet=placeID;infoMarker.title=name;infoMarker.opacity=0;CGPointpos=infoMarker.infoWindowAnchor;pos.y=1;infoMarker.infoWindowAnchor=pos;infoMarker.map=mapView;mapView.selectedMarker=infoMarker;}
Cómo dejar de mostrar lugares de interés en el mapa
Para ocultar lugares de interés, puedes aplicar diseños personalizados a todos ellos o a determinadas categorías.
La siguiente declaración de diseño JSON oculta todos los lugares de interés comerciales en el mapa:

POIs include parks, schools, government buildings, and\nmore. In addition, *business* POIs appear by default on the map when the map\ntype is `kGMSTypeNormal`. Business POIs represent businesses such as shops,\nrestaurants, hotels, and more.\n\nA POI corresponds to a [Place ID](/maps/documentation/places/ios-sdk/place-id#id-overview),\nas defined in the Places SDK for iOS. For example, recreational parks are POIs,\nbut things like water fountains are generally not POIs (unless they're of\nnational or historic significance).\n\nListening for click events on POIs\n\nIf you want to respond to a user tapping on a POI, implement\n[`GMSMapViewDelegate`](/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Protocols/GMSMapViewDelegate),\nand implement the\n[`mapView(_:didTapPOIWithPlaceID:name:location:)`](/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/reference/objc/Protocols/GMSMapViewDelegate#-mapview:didtappoiwithplaceid:name:location:)\nmethod, as shown in the following example:\n\n\nSwift \n\n```swift\nimport GoogleMaps\n\nclass POI: UIViewController, GMSMapViewDelegate {\n\n override func loadView() {\n let camera = GMSCameraPosition.camera(\n withLatitude: 47.603,\n longitude:-122.331,\n zoom:14\n )\n let mapView = GMSMapView.map(withFrame: .zero, camera: camera)\n mapView.delegate = self\n self.view = mapView\n }\n\n func mapView(\n _ mapView: GMSMapView,\n didTapPOIWithPlaceID placeID: String,\n name: String,\n location: CLLocationCoordinate2D\n ) {\n print(\"You tapped \\(name): \\(placeID), \\(location.latitude)/\\(location.longitude)\")\n }\n}\n \n```\n\nObjective-C \n\n```objective-c\n#import \"POI.h\"\n@import GoogleMaps;\n\n@interface POI () \u003cGMSMapViewDelegate\u003e\n\n@end\n\n@implementation POI\n\n- (void)loadView {\n GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:47.603\n longitude:-122.331\n zoom:14];\n GMSMapView *mapView = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero camera:camera];\n mapView.delegate = self;\n self.view = mapView;\n}\n\n#pragma mark - GMSMapViewDelegate\n\n- (void)mapView:(GMSMapView *)mapView\n didTapPOIWithPlaceID:(NSString *)placeID\n name:(NSString *)name\n location:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)location {\n NSLog(@\"You tapped %@: %@, %f/%f\", name, placeID, location.latitude, location.longitude);\n}\n\n@end\n \n```\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\nShowing details in an info window\n\nPOIs appear on the map by default, but there is no default on-click UI (the API\ndoes not automatically display an info window or any other user interface when\nthe user taps a POI). The following example shows how to use a marker to\ndisplay an info window for a POI:\n\n\nSwift \n\n```swift\n// Declare GMSMarker instance at the class level.\nlet infoMarker = GMSMarker()\n\n// Attach an info window to the POI using the GMSMarker.\nfunc mapView(\n _ mapView: GMSMapView,\n didTapPOIWithPlaceID placeID: String,\n name: String,\n location: CLLocationCoordinate2D\n) {\n infoMarker.snippet = placeID\n infoMarker.position = location\n infoMarker.title = name\n infoMarker.opacity = 0;\n infoMarker.infoWindowAnchor.y = 1\n infoMarker.map = mapView\n mapView.selectedMarker = infoMarker\n}\n \n```\n\nObjective-C \n\n```objective-c\n// Declare a GMSMarker instance at the class level.\nGMSMarker *infoMarker;\n\n// Attach an info window to the POI using the GMSMarker.\n- (void)mapView:(GMSMapView *)mapView\n didTapPOIWithPlaceID:(NSString *)placeID\n name:(NSString *)name\n location:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)location {\n infoMarker = [GMSMarker markerWithPosition:location];\n infoMarker.snippet = placeID;\n infoMarker.title = name;\n infoMarker.opacity = 0;\n CGPoint pos = infoMarker.infoWindowAnchor;\n pos.y = 1;\n infoMarker.infoWindowAnchor = pos;\n infoMarker.map = mapView;\n mapView.selectedMarker = infoMarker;\n}\n \n```\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\nStopping POIs from showing on the map\n\nYou can hide POIs by applying custom styles to all POIs or\nto specific categories of POIs.\n\nThe following JSON style declaration hides all business POIs on the map: \n\n [\n {\n \"featureType\": \"poi.business\",\n \"stylers\": [\n { \"visibility\": \"off\" }\n ]\n }\n ]\n\nAs another example, the following JSON simplifies the display of all categories\nof POIs: \n\n [\n {\n \"featureType\": \"poi\",\n \"stylers\": [\n { \"visibility\": \"simplified\" }\n ]\n }\n ]\n\nFor more details, see the guide to [hiding map features with styling](/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/hiding-features)."]]
