How are map views counted?
MetaLocator incurs costs based on map views. Map views are different from page views and reflect user interaction with the software. Map views are the most common utilization metric used by MetaLocator when establishing Enterprise agreements. The exact determination of map view utilization is made by the map vendor, typically MapBox or Google Maps.
