I try to integrate Google’s static Maps service in my C# application. It should plot a custom route on a map. For example:
http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&path=color:0x0000ff|weight:5|40.737102,-73.990318|40.749825,-73.987963&sensor=false
This works well for a few path points (~ <75) but if the route is long enough the URI exceeds the 2048 characters limit and I get a 414 error message.
Is it possible to bypass this problem, perhaps with a POST?
Thank you!
if you have a web serve you can save the points in a KML file hosted on your webserver then pass it along to google Maps http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/whatiskml.html
