API keys query

Can we use a google private key and client ID with googleway/mapbox?

The same goes for the geocoding MMC and potentially calculating transport distance. VicData does supply all address locations, would it be in scope to obtain that data and use it rather than a geocoding service? (It's pretty tricky, matching by address string but I guess it makes the point that it's possible).

I think I managed to order the whole state address layer from the map interface, will pursue in https://github.com/SymbolixAU/GeospatialStroke/issues/3

We could use HughParsonage's package: https://github.com/HughParsonage/PSMA.git. I haven't checked whether MMC is in there, but it probably is.

I was planning on using it in one of the following examples to sample random addresses.

I finally tried PSMA, this is what I get

PSMA::geocode(flat_number = NA_character_, 
               number_first = 246, street_name = "Clayton", street_type = "Road", 
              postcode = 3168L)
#   ordering  LATITUDE LONGITUDE
#1:        1 -37.92013  145.1211

I'd say it's definitely going to be worth requiring a key for Google geocoding, having to specify each component of the address is really painful, when google will take just about any string and return a region with uncertainty included.

I do have the Vicmap address data set but it's pretty painful to read and deal with so I think that's out.

Dear Michael

it's strange. usually ggmap is reliable but I tried it last night after your email and today and it's not working

Lets see how convincing we can make it with the free developer keys.

I'll be using the PSMA package later, because it is nice for generating random addresses, but we definitely want to cover the various geocoding options from google and osm.

I just realised that Google Map API have changed their policy. now they don't allow keyless entry

Yes, the google maps API now requires keys and offer everyone a $200 monthly credit I believe. No more free use beyond that.

[richardbeare]

How many of the examples can we set up effectively using osm services?

[GNtem2]

I had a look at the paper in latex format. it's coming along. we need to have some further discussion to make it relevant to neurologists.
