By the way, a quick estimation shows that 50k coordinates will probably cost less than 0.01$ of electricity on my laptop. | |
| Mar 25, 2015 at 6:22 | comment | added | KGo | It honestly doesn't feel like something that would take a week. But at 1.5 million monthly requests it will definitely won't be free. You'll still have to get your own server instances or whatever. | |
| Mar 25, 2015 at 2:02 | comment | added | Nicolas Raoul♦ | @KaranGoel: If I had a week of vacations right now, I would develop a library that does this, and give it away for free (as open source). It is not rocket science, just get a borders map from OpenStreetMap and calculate in which country each point falls. | |
| Mar 24, 2015 at 19:19 | comment | added | KGo | Something fundamentally wrong about your request is that you want 50k daily requests for free. If you really have than much quota, you should be expecting to pay. | |
| Mar 23, 2015 at 3:31 | comment | added | Nicolas Raoul♦ | @KaranGoel: That JavaScript question is about some guy's buggy source code that calls Google Maps API, and how to fix that code. Full-address geocoding sounds overkill, but it is certainly much better than nothing, so feel free to add an answer here about Google Maps API :-) | |
