1. Service.

1.1 Description of Service. The API allows You to display certain content, including map images, overlayed objects like Poiont-of-Interests (POIs) and search results on your website, subject to the limitations and conditions described below. The information accessible through the Service, not limited to map information and photographic imagery and overlayed objects, is referred to in this document as "the Content."

Subject to the limitations and conditions described in the terms of service, You may use the API to display the Content in conjunction with other information You provide to end users. You may not access, reproduce, or use the Content for any other purpose.

The API can be used free of charge for your services that are accessible to consumers, freely or restricted, with or without charge, provided that the amount of data served and measured by MM servers to your services does not exceed the Longdo Map API Free Usage Threshold, which is currently set to the followings:

 

  • Web services queries: e.g., search, routing, reverse geocoding, elevation inquiries: 100,000 requests per month for all services, and not more than 60 requests per minute
  • Map images tiles queries: 800,000 tiles per month

 

In case of exceeding, You will have two options of either 1) continue pulling the data from MM servers under a subscription of MM's commercial map solutions, or 2) receive no more data from MM servers until the beginning of the consecutive month. You will be contacted by MM's salesperson in such cases via the e-mail You registered with MM or other possible means. In case that MM cannot contact you for any reasons, the second option will be automatically chosen for You.

MM shall have sole and complete control over the map data and format. You may not obtain more than one key for use in the Service.
