Hi, I read in your FAQ section (http://code.google.com/apis/maps/ faq.html#geocoder_limit) in the "Is there a limit to the number of geocode requests I can submit?" that there is a maximum limit of 2,500 geocode requests per 24 hours.
However it says in the 2nd paragraph, "When using one of the Maps API geocoding classes, requests are made by the user's web browser and count against the quota for the user's IP address. This means that excessive usage on the part of one user will not impact other users of your site. However, if many users access the Google Maps APIs through a single proxy, they will share the quota of the IP address of the proxy." I want to connect a search bar to the googlemap, so when a user types in a location (postecode/area/street name etc...) it will load a map on the next page centred on that position. Obviously by entering the location, it will have to be geocoded first to provide the lat/long co- ordinates to centre the map. Will each of these geocode requests be made by my website or the users browser? Also, I want users to be able to create markers on the map in locations that they've visited. When typing in the area/location to create the marker on the map, this will also use a geocode request. Will this count towards my websites IP quota or the users browser? Is there a sure way to program the googlemaps so that the geocoding requests come from the uesrs IP? Thank you very much. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
