I am getting errors back from search/geo/point about the radius being over 101 miles.  Is that the limit? If so anyway of getting it higher?

Thanks!

Hey Fred,

The radius parameter is indeed capped at 100 miles. What are you looking to do? Maybe there’s a different approach. 

Cheers,

Garrison

Hi Garrison, 

The general idea is that a user can enter a start and end point which then displays a route on google maps, along with breweries as markers that encompass the area of the route.  My current idea for proof of concept was to use the search service at the midpoint of the route and a radius that encompasses the route.  This works ok for anything within the allowable radius but for anything over a lot is left out.  Maybe a work around is to make multiple calls to the service for routes where the radius goes over the limit and just do this all the way down the route.

Thanks for the info!
Fred
