> So how about storing coordinates? How about it? Whether something is Google's content or not, depends on if it came from Google or not. I'm not a lawyer blah, but I wouldn't expect storing the coordinates of a user's click on a screen to cause a problem.
In the UK, we have a quasi-commercial national mapping agency which DOES claim ownership of any position readings taken off their maps! > For example, I remember coming across a site with bike trails. > http://www.nycbikemaps.com/maps/nyc-bike-map/ I can't see anything to suggest that those trails were ever based on directions supplied by Google, they're probably based on GPS tracks. Note that they don't all 'follow streets' which is in your orginal spec... but perhaps you don't mean automatically? If you wanted only a few routes to store and you know what they are, you might effectively trace them off a map and do what you like with them. If you want automatic routing, you're stuck with the terms of whichever directions service you choose. It's your project and you must decide if it meets the terms of any services you employ. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
