Appendix G- Licensing of Google Maps in Spectrum Spatial Analyst

Spectrum Spatial Analyst is a mapping and analytic application that PB provides to our clients for deployment into their enterprise. The application provides support for a broad suite of content sources including business layers from the client’s proprietary data and third party sources. Support for Bing maps includes the licensing needed to use Bing maps within Analyst. However Pitney Bowes does not currently provide Google Maps licensing to our clients and their end consumers.

Any implementation of the Google Map API’s Products and Services that are not freely and publicly accessible, as per Section 9.1 of the Google Maps/Google Earth APIs Terms of Service, require a Google Maps Premium Plan Licensing and are subject to the Google Maps for Work Premium Plan Terms seen here:

https://www.google.com/work/earthmaps/legal/amer/premium-maps-terms.html

Freely and publicly available Google Map API’s Products and Services implementation can use Standards Plan Licensing and are subject to the Google Maps/Google Earth APIs Terms of Service, which include advertising rights to Google (Section 4.3) https://developers.google.com/maps/terms A detailed description of what's acceptable and what's included with each Plan (Standard and Premium) can be seen on the Pricing and Plans Page here:

Please proceed in securing the correct licensing for your application. Premium Plan licensing costs are correlated with volume/run rate requirements. Please press the Contacts Sales Button at https://developers.google.com/maps/pricing-and-plans/ to determine the exact cost of licensing for your organization for continued use of the Google Maps API.

Should your use case support Standard Plan licensing (freely and publicly available) and your organization has no concerns with Google’s Privacy Policy & Advertising rights (Section 1.2 and 4.3 respectively), then usage limits will apply. Usage limits for the Standard Plan are subject to the limits on the pricing page, a cost calculator for Standard Plan is also included on that page here:

https://developers.google.com/maps/pricing-and-plans/

Note that the Analyst Admin Console supports entry of both a Google API key and/or a Google Client ID when enabling Google Maps support. Premium plan customers will either receive a Google client ID or can use an API Key. Standard plan customers must use a Google API key. Details can be found here:

Configuration of Google Maps in Spectrum Spatial Analyst

Analyst provides the option to administrators to enable Google Maps content through the specification of a Google API Key and a Google Client ID. If the administrator has not provided an API key or Client ID then they cannot enable Google maps and are prevented from adding Google base map layers to Analyst. When the end user application loads, the page will follow these rules:

If the user is not authenticated (guest access is enabled and the user has not signed in to Analyst)

If an API key is available, it will be used for loading Google Maps
Otherwise, if a client ID is available, it will be used for loading Google Maps,
Otherwise no Google Maps support will be loaded

If the user is authenticated (the user has signed in to Analyst),

If a Client ID is available, it will be used for loading Google Maps,
Otherwise, if an API key is available, it will be used for loading Google Maps,
Otherwise no Google Maps support will be loaded

If guest access is used internally within an organization then customers should still obtain premium plan licensing. Analyst must be available freely and publicly to be in compliance with Google’s Standard licensing terms.
