Resume my application on coming back from google maps

i want to show one location in google map, for that i used the below code:

    String geo = maindata.getString("map");
    String uri = String.format(Locale.ENGLISH, geo, "", "");
    final Intent intent1 = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri));
    try {
       cordova.getActivity().runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
         public void run() {
cordova.getActivity().startActivity(intent1);
}
     });
   }catch(Exception e){
        e.printStackTrace();
   }

The google map application is getting launched and it is showing proper location also, BUT the problem is, when press back button then it is restarting my application.

whereas i want to resume from the lunching position

You can display particular location on google map by using following code snippet: 

Uri gmmIntentUri = Uri.parse("google.navigation:q=" + lattitude+ ","
                            + longitude+ "+&mode=d");
                    Intent mapIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, gmmIntentUri);
                    if (isAppInstalled("com.google.android.apps.maps")) {

                        mapIntent.setClassName("com.google.android.apps.maps",
                                "com.google.android.maps.MapsActivity");
                    }
                    startActivity(mapIntent);

Here latitude and longitude belongs the location which you want to display on map.

 /**
 * helper function to check if Maps is installed
 **/


 private boolean isAppInstalled(String uri) {
        PackageManager pm = mActivity.getPackageManager();
        boolean app_installed = false;
        try {
            pm.getPackageInfo(uri, PackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES);
            app_installed = true;
        } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
            app_installed = false;
        }
        return app_installed;
    }

And on back press from google map user will redirect to the same activity from which google map was launched.

You have to put your activity to the buttom of the stack and then launch the Google map app activity

do the following : 

        String geo = maindata.getString("map");
String uri = String.format(Locale.ENGLISH, geo, "", "");
final Intent intent1 = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri));
try {
     TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(this);
    stackBuilder.addParentStack(MainActivity.class); //Instead Of MainActivity you can add your Launching activity Name
    stackBuilder.addNextIntent(intent1);
   cordova.getActivity().runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
     public void run() {
    startActivity(intent1);
 }
      });
    }catch(Exception e){
    e.printStackTrace();
   }
