Google Maps API applications that right away charge to a greater extent than than 25,000 basic maps or 2,500 maps that purpose the Styled Maps characteristic per solar daytime volition right away accept to pay for the privilege.
Google announced inwards Apr that it would innovate usage limits for the costless purpose of the Google Maps API. The usage limits that right away apply to the Google Maps API are documented inwards the Google Maps API FAQ.
If your application exceeds the daily bound yous tin enrol for automated billing of excess map loads or buy a Maps API Premier license.
The Google Geo Developers Blog says that "for really pop sites (the) Maps API Premier (licence) is probable to endure a to a greater extent than toll effective option." Google too says that "non-profits as well as applications deemed inwards the world involvement (as determined past times Google at its discretion) are non dependent area to these usage limits."
Google claims that it is necessary to innovate these charges to secure the "long term future" of the Google Maps API as well as to ensure that "Google tin come about away on to offering the Maps API for costless to the vast bulk of developers for many years to come."
For comparing the Bing Maps API has a bound of 125,000 sessions or 500,000 transactions inwards a 12 calendar month menstruation (for costless usage). The OpenStreetMaps API continues to endure free. The MapQuest Open JavaScript API is built upon map information from OpenStreetMap as well as is too costless amongst no usage restrictions.
Google Maps is past times far the nigh pop map provider on the Internet. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 huge argue for the authorisation of Google Maps is the ubiquity of Google Maps applications built upon the Maps API across the internet. I can't assist feeling that Google has only encouraged a lot of developers to commencement looking at other Maps API's.
One really innovative user of the Google Maps API has already said that he volition right away endure looking to purpose unopen to other map API. Ben Marsh, of the pop #UKSnow map, told .net,
"At summit times, Google's limits would brand my ain #UKSnow map halt working earlier dawn. It had 0.6 ane 1000 k page-views over the 2010-11 wintertime period, which I've worked out would accept toll nearly £2,000 to maintain running.
Based on this, as well as given it volition probable have the same amount of traffic this winter, I volition endure moving to unopen to other map provider."
