reverse geocoding

Angelo5 years ago

Hi,

using the locationIQ's free service, 10000 request a day, got 10 GPS, in less than a day, I got:

Geocoding failed - HTTP 429 Too Many Requests - ClientErrorException (...)

if i understand correctly, reverse geocoding call only happens when a user view the gps details? that means I have to view every GPS 1000 times to reach the 10000 per day limit, right?

Lets assume you receive location update from gps device every minute . so you receive 1440 updates and 1440 reverse geocoding request. for 10 devies its 14400 per day.. so its obvious you exceed limit.

I think you are right, but can we make it another way:

I only want to see the location when I open the browser, most of time browser is off, is there a way to do this?
