Can i Use your toolkit with Google Maps api ?

fabrik42 commented 7 years ago

Hi! Yes, you could write an adapter for the Google Maps API, to use it for routing and create a map widget for the UI. However, currently there is no support for Google Maps, because afaik the Terms of Service of Google Maps prohibit the usage for real time navigation.

I hope this helps!

I understand that the routing in only the service you support for google and no nteractive GPS driving directions .

Or I can do all the services by FFWDME

Sorry I can not help you with this, as this would be against the Terms of Service of Google Maps.

Hello, The New Google Maps T&C (eff June 11th 2018) do not fully prohibit real time navigations anymore. Are you planning to add gMap support to your great code ? Thanks

fabrik42 commented 6 years ago

Interesting! Do you have a link to this?

Look at 3.2.4 (c). Terms have changed. Turn by Turn real time navigation is allowed except if it is 'substantially similar to the functionality provided by the Google Maps for Android mobile app'. To be honest, those terms are pretty vague and subject to interpretation. The important point, IMO, is that they went from a 'no' to a 'yes but'...

Cool! Right now I have no plans to add support for Google Maps myself, but I am happy to assist/review PRs. :)
