Google maps API's terms of service allow you to use it in a website and not in a standalone non-Web application (FAQ clearly says that) And Google Earth requires the client to be installed on the machine that you use. So both ways are not valid :( The only doable thing I can think now is a client to compile information for the openstreetsmap project :( This license is against all the applications that I wanted to implement Bye and thanks, Alessandro On 11/27/06, Marcus Bauer <marcus.bauer at gmail.com> wrote: > > On Mon, 2006年11月27日 at 12:44 +0100, Alessandro Iurlano wrote: > > > > > I know that google provides API for the search engine.
