Hi, On Audioboo, we use the reverse-geocoding service to give an indication of the general area of a user, which used to be found by looking up a latlong, stripping out placemarks with an accuracy greater than 7, and employing some heuristics on the remainder.
Recently, the service seems to have changed : for example, looking up (51.501000,-0.077958) used to return a series of placemarks with accuracy ranging from 1 to 8, and we'd be able to figure out that the general area was Southwark, London. It now returns 9 placemarks, all of which have an accuracy of 8 or 9, which seems too detailed to reliably get location areas from. Is there any way of requesting lower accuracies? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
