Accuracy of Geocoding Data?

VCL TMS VCL WebGMaps

Hi Bruno,


I've been playing around with the Geocoding component (which is great).

When using Google to geocode I believe Google returns information about the location (e.g. full address) as well as the accuracy of the geocoding on a numerical scale.  As a suggestion, would it be possible to expose this information in the geocoding component?

Thanks,

Steve

GGeoAddressAccurracy was only available in GoogleMaps api v2. In v3 (which is used by WebGMaps) this has been replaced with
LocationType, which is returned through the ResultLocationType property of the WebGMapsGeocoding control.

Hi Bart,


I wasn't aware of the change.  That's a pit as the LocationType doesn't seem as meaningful.  Does v3 return the cleaned up address?  If it does then it would be ideal if this data can be exposed.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve,


Thank you for your suggestion.
I'll investigate if the extra information can be exposed in a future version of the control.
