On June 3, 2019, a new Asset Tracking plan was launched on
Google Maps Platform. This plan is only available for customers with large
fleets (thousands of assets) and a specific use case. Please Contact
Sales
if you are interested in this plan.
The following APIs are covered under the Google Maps Platform Asset Tracking
plan:
Geocoding API
Directions API
Geolocation API
Elevation API
Roads API (including Speed Limits)
Time Zone API
Distance Matrix API
Maps Static API
Maps JavaScript API
Street View API
Billing
Billing on this plan is set up as a fixed monthly fee which is attached to your
billing account. This will result in a new SKU appearing in your developer
console usage reports
:
Maps Monthly Fee. This fee is prorated per day and shown in your usage
graph. It appears when you group both by "projects" or "SKUs" in your usage
report, since the monthly payment fee is attached to your billing account and
not a specific project.
Usage per API is still shown in your usage reports. The covered APIs mentioned
above will have a price of zero, and will be covered by the fixed monthly fee.
The APIs not covered (Places API) will be charged on a pay-as-you-go basis. For
more details check the "Places Services Pricing" section included in your
contract.
Quota limits
The plan you subscribed to defines which quota limits you get. To check what
limits are eligible for your project, look at the "Maps Asset Tracking
Subscription Plan Tiers" section of your contract and the table showing the
quota limit included in your plan.
During the initial setup of your project, we have provisioned the included quota
on both the Directions API, and Geocoding API. If you need this quota uplift to
be added to any other APIs covered by the Google Maps Platform Asset Tracking
plan, contact technical support.
If you need more than the included quota, contact your account manager to
arrange moving to a higher subscription plan.
For any urgent temporary quota uplift requests contact technical
support.
