<h1>Google Maps API<a class="headerlink" href="#google-maps-api" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h1>
<p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Google</span> <span class="pre">Maps</span></code> has a <em>free</em> api that can be used to calculate distance matrixes as well as show point on a map.
In order to use this API you will need to request an API key from the <a class="reference external" href="https://cloud.google.com/">google cloud console</a>.</p>
<p>This API can be used at a cost for each request, but Google gives ~200 dollars worth of request at the start of every month.</p>
<section id="using-the-google-api">
<h2>Using the Google API<a class="headerlink" href="#using-the-google-api" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>For a quick test to see if it was possible to geolocate each house and calculate the distance. For this a simple python script was used.</p>

<p>We can do about 40.000 request for free each month. With about 1200 houses and 6 requests per house that would mean up to 7000 requests.
That is enough to build a quick PoC to see if this method would work.</p>
<img alt="_images/poc_houses_on_maps.png" src="_images/poc_houses_on_maps.png" />
<p>This works and a lot of houses are shown on google maps with markers.</p>

<section id="google-ban">
<h2>Google Ban<a class="headerlink" href="#google-ban" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>Another result of this action was a Ban from google.
The reason for this was that I did not read the terms of use.
You are allowed to do 40K requests for free every month, just not several thousand in a few minutes. Oops.</p>
<img alt="_images/ban_google.png" src="_images/ban_google.png" />
<p>Because we want to do more than 40k requests and dont want to pay for these requests, the project was switched to <strong>O</strong>pen <strong>S</strong>treet <strong>M</strong>ap(OSM)</p>
