Hi, Currently my webapp uses the geocoder on street addresses and stores lat-lon-accu in a DB. When I load data from the DB, the lat-lon is used to put markers on the map. I provide an option to show the addresses which did not geocode correctly so the address may be modified to something that does.
There are other things I would do with the data but they're not allowed. However there are a few things which would be very useful to my app and seem to be on the fringe of what is allowed, so I'm asking for clarification. Is it OK to use geocoding data to sort or filter records? For example... - Select from DB all the sites which are in a particular state to show on the map - Select from DB all the sites whose lat-lon are in a particular range, eg those that will appear on the map - Sort sites in order of latitude so they can be listed next to the map in north-south order, or in order of distance from some point. - Use coordinates within the webapp in other mathematical operations, eg determine if point is within some polygon. In all these cases, no geocoding data is taken out of the Maps environment, but it has been used for more than just plotting a marker on the map.
