Migrated discussion from AppEngine group: Over the past couple of weeks I have noticed an increase in the number of "OVER_QUERY_LIMIT" responses we have been receiving. Currently whenever we make a call to be geocoded we keep track of that call and decrease a counter on our end. I have historical data that shows we usually end the day with at least 300 queries left. This AM, I cannot even make a query off the server because it returns the limit message, and I show in our table that we have some 2300 call left.
Is there a call that can be made to get your current query limit? If not, does the 2500 calls allowed happen in a sliding window? Are there hourly limits to prevent flooding? This would be greatly helpful provided our search mechanism first attempts to get relevant geocoded data from the server before actually calling over to Google for an unknown geocode. Thanks. ------------------ Is this the maps API you're referring to? ------------------ The Geocoding API v3. I am using the Xml response. I just hit the limit tonight testing some changes that needed to be implemented. I had 698 addresses to geocode. I pulled them from the database and submit each address using: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address={0}&sensor=false I then write back some of the data in the response. I checked and 26 came up empty. I reran the code and 2 came back with the OVER_QUERY_LIMIT. So, it took 3 passes to geocode 698 addresses. I had to use 726 calls. Luckily this is only one of the tables that needs updating and we only submit it to geocoding when the address changes. We keep track of all our calls when geocoding on the server side as stated previously. Thanks again for the help. ----------------- You know this is the App Engine list, not a Maps or gdata list, right? --------------- END ----------------- Any possible help here? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
