According to my understanding, the Directions webservice is supposed to return the distance text in the units of the origin. Meaning a route from one place in the US to another place in the US should always return the distance text in units of miles. However, I've noticed the following request returns the textual distance in KM:
http://maps.google.com/maps/api/directions/xml?origin=41.77732,-87.62146&destination=41.234308,-86.138306&sensor=false I know the distance value is always in meters, but the text should be in miles for this query. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
