After supplying Google with your<br> account<br> information and the URL of your Maps API<br> Implementation, and<br> accepting the Terms, you will be issued an alphanumeric key<br> assigned to you by Google that is uniquely associated with<br> your Google Account and the URL of your Maps API<br> Implementation. Your Maps API Implementation must<br> import the<br> Google Maps APIs using this key as described in the<br> Maps APIs<br> Documentation<br> <<a href="http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/" target="_blank">http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/</a>>, and Google<br><br> will block requests with an invalid key or invalid URL. You<br> may only obtain and use a key in accordance with these<br> Terms<br> and the Maps APIs Documentation<br> <<a href="http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/" target="_blank">http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/</a>>."<br><br><br> So it looks like I can't even get it to work without a URL.<br><br> I can always write a script that loops through results<br> extracted<br> from the database, creates URLs and parses the XML results<br> one at<br> a time, but that seems like a fairly inelegant solution.<br><br> Does anyone have any good ideas about how to geocode a few<br> thousand addresses?<br><br> Many thanks,<br><br> JP<br><br><br> _______________________________________________<br> Discuss mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a> <mailto:<a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a>><o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:70.8pt'> <mailto:<a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a> <mailto:<a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a>>><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:70.8pt'><br><br> <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss" target="_blank">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss</a><br><br><br><br> _______________________________________________<br> Discuss mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a> <mailto:<a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a>><br> <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss" target="_blank">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss</a><o:p></o:p></p></div></blockquote><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:70.8pt'><br>_______________________________________________<br>Discuss mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss" target="_blank">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss</a><o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:70.8pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:70.8pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:35.4pt'><br>_______________________________________________<br>Discuss mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Discuss@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Discuss@lists.osgeo.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss" target="_blank">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
