How to Enable the Google Maps Directions API in Your API Project
Share a map or location
Note that the Maps Embed API, Maps SDK for Android, and Maps SDK for iOS currently have no usage limits and are free (usage of the API or SDKs is not applied against your $200 monthly credit).
The Directions API is a web service that uses an HTTP request to return JSON or XML-formatted directions between locations. You can receive directions for several modes of transportation, such as transit, driving, walking, or cycling.
North, east, south, and west are the four cardinal directions, often marked by the initials N, E, S, and W.

The Distance Matrix API is a service that provides travel distance and time for a matrix of origins and destinations. The API returns information based on the recommended route between start and end points, as calculated by the Google Maps API, and consists of rows containing duration and distance values for each pair.
To create an API key:
Users of the free API: 100 elements per query. 100 elements per 10 seconds. 2,500 elements per 24 hour period.
In physics, distance and displacement are used to indicate the length between two points. However, these two are not one and the same thing. While distance is the length of the actual path between two locations, displacement, on the other hand, is the length of the shortest path between two locations.
Distance and Displacement
Distance | Displacement |
---|---|
1) The total or complete path travelled by an object. | 1) The shortest distance between the final position and the initial position of the motion of the object. |
2) It can never be negative or zero, always positive | 2) It can be positive, negative or zero depending on the context. |
Displacement is defined as the act of moving someone or something from one position to another or the measurement of the volume replaced by something else. An example of displacement is the weight of the water that is replaced by an ocean liner.
