Hi Reda,

I have read all the conditions and I was just wondering what are the violation of Google's terms of service we are talking about on Esri's Flex Viewer?

There's a great discussion on the topic in this blog post. Even though the post refers to the ArcGIS API for Silverlight, the same general guidelines apply.

Hope this helps,

Hi Reda,

... Could you please specify what are the legal constraints that prohibit using Google Maps on Flex? and what are the violation of Google's terms of service we are talking about?

FYI, you can read and learn about the

Legal Notices for Google Maps/Google Earth and Google Maps/Google Earth APIs and Google Maps/Earth Additional Terms of Service online.

Hope this helps,

Hi Will,

As the other referenced threads have indicated, using Google Maps in the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex is a violation of Google's terms of service. Therefore, while technically it is possible, legally the answer is "no".

Hope this helps,

So the answer appears to be NO?
