Include Google Maps API Key in open source project?

Is it okay to put your Google Maps API Key into your source code and publish it? Others could take it and misuse it, but I don't want every developer / user to get their own API key and type it in somewhere. If the owner of the key is responsible, should I create a new google account for the project? (The project is a desktop applicatio...

Javascript insists it's not defined, it totally is

I'm not used to writing JS, honestly, and to make matters worse I'm working with the Google Maps API which, while well-documented, is a bear. So, I've written a function that allows a users to zoom onto the map from a link. But the interpreter insists my function isn't defined when I call it. The function is "zoomTo" and it appears in th...

Zoom levels in kml files on google maps

When I add GMarkers to a google map I can specifiy the min and max zoom levels at which the marker should be displayed using MarkerManager. Is there a way to specifiy this for Placemarks in kml files when they're displayed in Google Maps? It looks like the region tag in kml does this, but only in Google Earth, not in Google Maps. ...

Picking the most accurate geocode

I'm using http://maps.google.com/maps/geo? web service to geocode some addresses. The problem I have is that a fuller address doesn't necessarily give a more accurate geocode. e.g passing in Llantysilio, Denbighshire, UK is far more accurate than Llantysilio, Llangollen, Denbighshire, UK The Accuracy attribute in the XML doesn't seem ...

Programmatic map area/location finding / restriction

(Sorry, I couldn't come up with a better title - please feel free to suggest a better one in the comments.)

On of the drawbacks of google maps infowindows is that map will move to make room for the infowindow to display. ebubble( http://econym.org.uk/gmap/ebubble.html) overcomes this limitation, it doesn't move the map. However. it has its own limitations (you can't leave it on, like the infowindow, due to the way it works (it immediately hide...

can the callback from GetLocations() (from the Google Maps API) call anything other than API functions?

I'm working in Javascript on a Maps API project for work. I'm having trouble with the callback function which I pass to GetLocations in which it has to call another chunk of code (all the callback does is store the lat and lng into an object). But after the function does its work, the next function doesn't get called. How does this call...

Check if JSON keys/nodes exist

I'm using the Google Map API to retrieve city + state/region information from a postal code lookup. The issue is that in some cases a postal code lookup won't retrieve a city name.
