Hello I am a retired volunteer, developing an MS Access system for a small non-profit organization that coordinates Volunteer drivers and individuals in need of rides to medical and other critical appointments. The system being developed tracks, schedules, and reports on the volunteer driver’s time and distance driven, and the distances that riders are transported.
I need to get an answer to a question about use of Google Maps Time and Distance information, and whether our usage complies with the TOS. If it does not comply, then I need to find out what we have to do to make it comply! The system is a batch process of low volume and runs on either a local desktop or on a laptop. It is basically the automation of a process that originally required manual interrogation of Google Maps for each leg of each ride with the use of spreadsheets to record results. Needless to say, that was exceptionally time consuming and subject to inaccuracy. The new system, which creates schedules for drivers, breaks down high level ride data into "legs" each with one start point and one end point. Using a standard Google Maps API these "Legs" are then sent to Google Maps. A Time and Distance result is returned. The results are then used to create the schedules and reports regarding the miles traveled by both passengers and drivers. I would appreciate it someone could tell me the proper contact to ensure that we are in compliance with Google requirements.
