Google Maps API is free up to 2500 hits per day, but after that costs $10,000 per year. That's crazy!<br />
<br />
But, a database resident on my server lets me query until the cows come home. If I want to do city lookup, great. I think it will instead use zip codes for simplicities sake. 5 digits either are valid or they are not.<br />
<br />
I really like that shaded areas you created on Fiddler. Awesome!<br />
<br />
Thanks.

I plan to use the MaxMind library ('geoip-lite') or the paid one to do Lat/Long lookup for an IP address. I need something similar for converting a City/State in the United States to Lat/Long.<br />
<br />
Anybody know one? This is for a subscription service, So Google Maps has different set of rules, versus a free service.<br />
<br />
<br />
Let me know...<br />
<br />
Thanks!

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based global navigation satellite system (GNSS) that provides reliable location and time information in all weather and at all times and anywhere on or near the Earth when and where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. A geographic information system (GIS) or geospatial information system is any system that captures, stores, analyzes, manages, and presents data that are linked to location(s). In the simplest terms, GIS is the merging of cartography, statistical analysis, and database technology.

GIS/GPS Programming

Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services using a wide variety of languages and standards, including the familiar HTML, JavaScript and jQuery, ASP and ASP.NET, PHP, ColdFusion, CSS, PHP, Flex and Flash, but also the implementation of a broad list of standards including XML, WSDL, SSDL, VoiceXML and many more.

Cloud computing, also known as on-demand computing, is a kind of Internet-based computing where shared resources and information are provided to computers and other devices. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources. Cloud computing and storage solutions provide users and enterprises with various capabilities to store and process their data in third-party data centers, relying on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale.
