As they say, don't use it that way. I think the bit we're all struggling with is WHERE are you getting these urls from that you can't also get lat/lons? If you're scraping off maps.google.com it's there in the suggested 'link' urls. The numbers you are trying crack are pixel positions I believe ; Google's servers represent the whole-world map internally as a big raster --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
