Whereas, converting the latitude and longitude to an address is called reverse geocoding.īecause I am probably not the only person who would like to reverse geocode a dataset, I thought it would be helpful to share my own reverse geocoding process.

INVALID_REQUEST: Indicates that some part of the query (address, URL components, etc.) is missing. REQUEST_DENIED: indicates that your request was denied. OVER_QUERY_LIMIT: indicates that you are over your quota. This may occur if the geocoder was passed a non-existent address. ZERO_RESULTS: indicates that the geocode was successful but returned no results. ![]() OK: indicates that no errors occurred the address was successfully parsed and at least one geocode was returned. Status: the geocode status of a response object. GEOMETRIC_CENTER: indicates that the result is the geometric center of a result such as a polyline (for example, a street) or polygon (region).ĪPPROXIMATE: indicates that the result is approximate. Interpolated results are generally returned when rooftop geocodes are unavailable for a street address. RANGE_INTERPOLATED: indicates that the result reflects an approximation (usually on a road) interpolated between two precise points (such as intersections). ROOFTOP: indicates that the return is accurate to the level of a precise street address. Location_type: an estimate of the response object's coordinate accuracy. Geocode_url returns a data frame with (numeric) lat/long coordinates and two additional parameters from the response object (see this page for additional information): "Fuzzy" date values can be useful to avoid sending large batches of geocode requests on the same day if your scripts recertify/retry geocode estimations after a fixed period of time. When set to "fuzzy", a random positive number of days between 1 and 30 is added to this date column. When set to "today", a column with today's calendar date is added to the returned data frame.

Yes, you can share your Kindle Unlimited titles with members of your Amazon Household. Here are answers to all your questions about using this service. So instead of buying several Kindle books in one month, you can pay $9.99 monthly and read to your heart’s content. You also have access to a selection of audiobook narrations. The main benefit of Kindle Unlimited is that it allows readers to read multiple books and magazines digitally for a cheaper price. You can only access Kindle Unlimited books on a Kindle device or the Amazon Kindle app. Kindle Unlimited is a digital book subscription service that gives Amazon Kindle readers access to millions of ebooks, magazines, and audiobooks for a fixed fee every month. I’ll walk you through what Kindle Unlimited is, why it’s worth considering (and why it may not be the best option for you), and answer all your questions about the service. I’ve also used a Kindle for over 10 years, so I’m very familiar with the device and Amazon’s offerings in general. ![]() I’ve subscribed to Kindle Unlimited at least twice for a combined period of at least six months. So that's how different people can access one Kindle Unlimited account! If one person borrowing for everyone sounds like too much work, multiple users can subscribe to Unlimited otherwise, you'll just have to take advantage of the many ways to get low-cost (or free) e-books and content on your Kindle e-readers.If you love to read (or have kids who enjoy reading), you’ve likely encountered the Kindle Unlimited subscription and wondered, “What is Kindle Unlimited?” or “Is Kindle Unlimited worth it?” Otherwise, they can go to the Digital Content page, search for the ebook in question, and send it to their linked Kindle device. Once the primary user borrows a Kindle Unlimited book on the main account, the secondary user should see it in their library. So teen or linked adult accounts will only be able to access Unlimited e-books if they ask the main user to borrow and share them first. Then, on that same page, you must Manage Your Family Library and confirm whether you want to share all ebooks, audiobooks, and games by default or have to share them individually.Įven if you enable automatic sharing, the primary Kindle Unlimited user must initiate all borrows. The quick summary is that you must go to this Manage Your Household page, add an adult or teen, and have that person log in to their account to link the two. We have a guide on how to create an Amazon Household you can follow. How to share Amazon Kindle Unlimited ebook access ![]() Unfortunately, you cannot add two or more separate accounts to a Prime Household. This is a great way for, say, a student leaving for college to keep Prime benefits from their parents but establish their own separate purchases and payment info. However, you can link one more Prime account to your Amazon Household, so that person has access to their own separate purchases and saved payment info but also gets access to the primary account's content and Prime benefits, including Kindle Unlimited and Amazon Music Unlimited. The primary login can be shared by two parents or spouses safely, as borrowed Kindle e-books can be read on more than one Kindle simultaneously. So in most cases, your Prime account can support one "family," with one primary adult user, up to four "teens" with monitored access, and children who can access purchased or borrowed content on their Amazon Fire Kids tablets but can't buy anything themselves. You can share your Amazon login with a friend to access your books on their Kindle, but it's against Amazon's terms and conditions, could lead to syncing issues, and would give that person access to your main Amazon account. Technically, a Kindle Unlimited subscription is strictly associated with one Amazon Prime account.
