Note that you may only use the free Google Maps API if your application is publicly accessible without charge: developers.google.com/maps/terms?hl=de#section_9_1 .– til_bCommented May 21, 2015 at 13:37

Have you googled at all? Googling for "google maps api java" finds developers.google.com/api-client-library/java/apis/mapsengine/… , which says "yes, there is".– til_bCommented May 22, 2015 at 8:27

It is recommended to use JavaFX for Java desktop applications whenever possible. Here is a good example of Google maps API and JavaFX integration:

This will give you an idea of how you can use it in your own project.
But if you need to embed and display Google Maps in your Java Desktop Swing application, then JxBrowser Java library is what you need. Check this article for example:
