You are in a meeting with a customer discussing the implementation of a Google Maps Platform integration. During the course of this conversation the subject of data storage is raised by the customer and you identify this as an ideal time to discuss the possibility of using Google Cloud Platform with their Google Maps solution.
What benefits do you tell the customer they can expect with a Google Maps solution that leverages Google Cloud?

 

Select All Correct Responses

• Lower cost – Because there’s synergy and scalability and the output will be cheaper.
• Security – whatever is built, created, coded, or stored, Google protects it.
• Better data – the data visualization is better than the competition because of Google’s vast Cloud platform.
• High latency – the combination of the two platforms creates a high latency.
• Scalability – the GCP infrastructure serves billions of Google Maps users and is a platform that will scale and flex as businesses do.

 

 

How could your customer, a ride-sharing service, make use of the Directions API?

 

• Optimize the provided route by automatically rearranging the waypoints in a more efficient order, influence routes with stopover and pass through points, and choose faster routes or reallocate deliveries to workers based on real-time traffic.

• Find out how fast they are traveling, add street view panoramas to their application, add an image to a map, and encode a sequence of latitude/longitude coordinates (LatLngs) into an encoded path string, and decode an encoded path string into a sequence of LatLngs.
• Optimize the street view by automatically rearranging the way the camera is looking, influence routes with speed limit and police known points, and choose faster routes or reallocate deliveries to workers based on traffic data from obtained over the last year.
• Find out how fast they are traveling, add street view panoramas to their application, customize images to a map, and find the latitude/longitude coordinates for a given address (geocoding), or convert the latitude/longitude coordinates of a geographic location to an address (reverse geocoding).
