Next, I enabled the Distance Matrix API and created an unrestricted (for now) API key. This is how I am making calls to the Google Distance Matrix API: var requestUri = string.Format("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/xml?units=imperial&mode=driving&origins={0}&destinations={1}&KEY={2}", originAddress, destinationAddress, apiKey); var request = WebRequest.Create(requestUri); var response =
