Re: [Leaflet] Geocoder control that uses Google Map Api to locate places.

[Ricardo Freitas]

Hey there

You are basically using google geocoder to get coordinates, in order to show them on the leaflet map?

If that is the case, careful, cause that is against google usage policy

Hi !

If some people are interested by a gecoder control that uses Google Map Api, a fork of "Leaflet Control Bing Geocoder" from Samuel Piquet is available on GitHib :

Have fun ;)

you're right !

Maybe the best thing to do is to use your own API key to identify your app like this :

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&key=API_console_key

[t...@mapbox.com]

The Terms of Service are the same if you use an API key - you can't use Google's Geocoder results on a non-Google map:

For example, you must not use geocodes obtained through the Service in conjunction with a non-Google map.

From 10.1.1.(g) of https://developers.google.com/maps/terms

Pretty harsh on their part but hey, no chance...had a few problems myself with them:) 

But you can use other alternatives like nominatim
