I am looking for a way to detect the location of uploaded photos. They are uploaded through an android app and an iOS app (later maybe even more). When they upload the user also sends along the lat,lng code.
I would like to use the google maps geocode REST api to detect the location name, but I am confused about the Terms of use. My question is this, can I use it to reverse geocode the location? Can I have the user's phone get the location from googles API service and send that along with the picture? What if I detect the location and on the website it will create a link to a google map? (wouldn't that make me fall under the correct terms of use? meaning a user will never upload more than 2500 pics per day, so it will always stay under the limit AND it is used together with a google map? i've read http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/#Limits and I've read http://code.google.com/apis/maps/terms.html#section_10_12 Now, if this was not allowed, how come google posts this code to do such actions? http://code.google.com/apis/maps/articles/phpsqlgeocode.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
