I want to visualization latitude and longitude data taken from IoT Devices.
But I couldn't find service is able to plot GPS log data.
For example, AT&T M2X can visualization and log data that just sensor data (like humidity, temperature, and so on) but it can't visualize map from data.
At last found Azure Maps, but it needs to register the credit card.
If needed to pay for the amount of user data, but I want to start map visualization with no pay option setting first.
I desire service keeps below three points, 1. no need pay option setting first, 2. it can post data from HTTP protocol(GET/POST), 3. any kinds of map type is ok (google map, BingMap, OpenStreetMap, and so on)
I'm sorry that my English is so bad.
I look forward to your reply.
thanks.
Might want to take a look at Data Studio (Google Cloud Platform). To get you started (no money) you should be able to create a spreadsheet with comma separated lat/long values, import it into Data Studio and get a visualization on a map of those positions.
Check it out here.
I know you said being able to post via HTTP is a requirement (makes it harder to use this, but wanted to point it out as it's cool and I just learned about it too.
There's also the Maps API which can do it (I'm actually unsure of how "free" it is, but most of our APIs have free tiers for like, # of requests). This is do-able via HTTP.
Azure Maps is a part of Azure and the credit card is for Azure all up, not just Azure Maps. That said, Azure Maps also provides free monthly usage limits. Also, in Azure you can set a spending limit on your account. After adding your credit card, simply set your limit to 0 and you don't need to worry about paying. If you exceed the free limits, your account will simply stop working until the next month when you get a new set of free limits. Here is some documentation on how to set a spending limit in Azure: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/billing/billing-spending-limit

First of all: i am a total beginner, especially with Google Cloud Platform.
I am building a Real Estate website that includes flats that are imported into the CMS via APIs. The flats are uploaded and managed from my client in a dedicated software.
Every flat includes also a map with the flat's position and I need to render it via Google Maps.
The flats (query) are updated every night. There are more than 120 flat that are daily updated.
So far everything fine, Google Maps works properly, but I realized that the costs of the Google Cloud Platform are increasing, drastically.
There is a way I can limit this? I only need to display in front-end (and back-end) the position of the available flats.
Many many thanks in advance!
You can use the Google Maps API for free within your first 90 days of registration. After that, you are billed proportionally to how many requests are sent. You will probably use the Static Maps API if you are just going to load the flat's location. Here is more pricing information.
I am trying to use Azure Maps API. It will be nice to have route information which should include the locations of course and a speed profile. As you can understand speed profile is not an east one. Free flow speed profile is ok. But we want to simulate real-world conditions meaning that we want to select date and time of departure to get accurate speed information as close to as possible to a real world traffic influence.
Is there any feature that Azure provide this? If not, which API can provide this
I don't have any code at this moment to show since ı don't know which API to use.
Historical traffic data is not currently available in Azure Maps but is being investigated as a potential future feature.
I'm trying to find a way to get historical speed data for a certain road in the UK to calculate its average speed per time of day AND the maximum speed driven by a any driver on the road between a period time. Any pointers how to do this from Waze? Thanks
I'm afraid Waze doesn't expose that data (understandably, as it is their core business). This excerpt from the help page should say enough:
Please note: Waze does not share any historical data with partners.
If you work for a local government or organisation, you could consider joining the Connected Citizens Program. As a partner you are able to get a data feed for a certain route and you're allowed to store that data to get historical data (as detailed on the Waze Partners Help site).
While I'm not certain about the legal status of doing this without being a partner, you could probably also start building your own historical dataset based on what Waze provides as average speed on a segment by periodically looking up the data returned when you plan a route on the Waze Live Map.
Routing requests are sent to https://www.waze.com/row-RoutingManager/routingRequest?... (see the network console of your browser for more details), but this requires some additional work managing CSRF and session cookies and providing the proper referral header. While not impossible, it's not too easy to pull off.
The response of such a routing request contains the instructions you see on the live map, but also includes things like the length of each specific segment on the route (distance), its average speed without realtime data (crossTimeWithoutRealTime) and its average speed with realtime data (crossTime). It's also possible to request the average speed for a certain time in the day, but this tends to be somewhat unreliable data.
The maximum speed is something you won't be able to find in Waze's data though, I'm afraid. I'm not even certain Waze stores that information as those statistical outliers generally aren't that interesting for navigational instructions. You could try to contact Waze for more information if you're doing a scientific study, but don't get your hopes up too much in that case as they have a small team that is constantly overwhelmed by the amount of questions they receive.
Long time ago, I took and passed the Google Analytics IQ certification test. At the time, I don't believe there were such things as Core Reporting API, Management API, and Metadata API (and probably some other Google Analytics related API's that I don't know about). Now that I am going through the Google Analytics IQ certification training course again (provided by Google, presented by Justin Curtoni?? I believe that's his name), I found that they now have Core Reporting API, Management API, and Metadata API.
I am a computer programmer by trade; so, I have no problem with programming using these API's. However, what I don't understand is, what do these API's buy me that the Google Analytics UI cannot offer? There is no reason to write a program that utilizes these API's simply because I can do it. To me, the existing Google Analytics UI has a lot of tools, reports, and other features that quite extensive. I am hoping that some of you can help me see something that I am probably missing.
The APIs are primarily for programmatic access. For example, if you need to create 1000 accounts all with the same property/view structure and then maybe add a few view filters to each of those accounts, you'll probably want to use the Management API. Doing that by hand would be a nightmare.
The same thing is true for the reporting API. Maybe you want to set up task that runs every monday morning and reports on the previous weeks data. And maybe you want to display that data on an internal dashboard for your company using some fancy charting library. You'd have to use the API to get the data.
Dashboards (executive summaries; managers often want nice visualizations instead of boring drill-downs)
Custom reports for user groups that do not have a Google Account or are not supposed to have access to full reports (e.g. Affiliates)
advanced filtering and aggregation (GA report cannot do everything)
You can combine analytics data with external data (e.g. you are not allowed to store personally identifiable information within GA; but you might store a custom key that allows you to link analytics data to customer data from you CRM or fulfillment system)
Machine-to-machine communication; I once did tracking for an airline that needed trend data on what people where searching for and what they where actually booking; that data was used to allocate/withdraw resources from busy/lame flights, and part of this was done by hooking up GA to their backend system
Take a look at the GA Partner Page. I would say the primary reason is to "liberate" GA Data from outside of GA itself. As Eike mentions, you can create dashboards and combine this data with other sources for a complete "View" of your online presence.
HI I guess there is no definite answer. Here are some things you can do with the APIs:
Automating AdWords CRO based on keyword ad and campaign performance.
Scoring leads based on Analytics data (Engagement with different items) and external data from a CRM.
Collecting unsampled data using multiple daily queries
Filtering using several dimension.
Tracking conversions for periods longer than supported by AdWords.
Looking at a funnel via segments
Analyzing funnels with non-linear structures
Create more robust alerts
Export data to BigQuery and analyse it together with data from other systems.
Create Machine learning apps for behavioural customizing your site.
Create a dashboard with data from multiple views
Use product recommendation to implements "better together" in an online store.
Automate creation of accounts and properties + their integration in a Hosting provider's console.
Cheers!!
I'm trying to make a google gadget that stores some data (say, statistics of users' actions) in a persistent way (i.e. statistics accumulates over time and over multiple users). Also I want these data to be placed at google free hosting, possibly together with the gadget itself.
Any ideas on how to do that?
I know, Google gadgets API has tools for working with remote data, but then the question is where to host it. Google Wave seemed to be an option, but it is no longer supported.
You should get a server and host it there.
You have then the best control over the code, the performance and the data itself.
There are several hosting providers out there who provide hosting for a reasonable price.
Naming some: Hostgator.com (US), Hetzner.de (DE), http://swedendedicated.com (SE, never used, just a quick search on the internet).
