Comments on: Quick Geocoding Using Google http://christopherbeck.wordpress.com/2008/08/05/quick-geocoding-using-google/ Yet another tech blog on Oracle, ApEx and PL/SQL development ( and other rants, just to keep it interesting ).

There are just too many possible security and performance issues if it was wide open for the general public to use. Same goes for all the network protocols ( ftp, smtp, ... ) out of the database hosted on apex.oracle.com chris. Scott,

I've searched the OTN forums for information on this to no avail. I was wondering what feedback you got? Cheers. G’day Christopher,

I have made use of this a few times in apps that I have written. Getting google to display its dynamic maps in APEX is just as easy too. As for the UK geocoding, should not be an issue. Just try out my app with your UK address and you should get back the proper lat/long. Thanks. I have made use of this a few times in apps that I have written.

I am trying to get google geocoding to work with at least static maps, for my existing hosted by oracle apex site. All I need is the lat,long for a UK postcode. Did the apex.oracle.com admins come back to you? Will they ever let access to 3rd party APIs. It is a shame we are locked up from the world in apex.oracle.com. Any news from them, what did they say? Many thanks Kind Regards Kubilay Chris
