I'm currently developing an application in which I need to use offline maps to put some markers, info, and geolocalization on it. It will be a web-based application, but I've seen that Google Maps API doesn't allow us to use maps offline because that will violate their TOS.
As a complement, my development team is willing to pay in order to get the maps we need, since we expect to have some support and reliability from the maps.
Therefore we were wondering which Map service could we use to develop the application with offline maps, where I can move, zoom and interact with it.
If you are targeting Windows 10, there Bing Maps is built into the Windows 10 SDK and supports offline maps, geocoding and routing. You can find some documentation on this API here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/dn642089.aspx
Bing Maps does provide generous free limits for Windows based apps. If your app is public facing, you have a limit of 50,000 transactions a day. If your app is internal business facing, the limit is 125,000 transactions a year. Generally you will generate one transaction each time the map control is loaded.

Complete React Native noobie here. I am trying to make an app in React Native Expo that will send an image to a cloud platform (still haven't decided on which one). The cloud will then recognize the objects in the image, put them in a square, and then return the image to the phone. I've been researching for days and I found APIs like Google Vision, and I found that Google has a module for multiple object detection. This is exactly what I need to do but I don't know how to implement it. I've been looking online and found a project that seems to be similar but is lacking object detection it rather has image labeling which is not what I need.
Are there any 3rd party APIs I can use in my project that can be used in i.e. Firebase?
How do I connect my app with i.e. Firebase? Can someone give me an example?
The picture needs to be manipulated on the cloud thus the squares need to be added on the cloud. Is this possible? I've checked out Google Vision but it seems to just return a JSON file (might be wrong)?
What would be the best cloud service that already has the API I need?

Is it possible to setup and use Metabase (https://metabase.com/) to directly (or indirectly, maybe via Google BigQuery) connect to Firebase realtime Database to fetch data to analyze? Any advice or tutorial links (if available) will be highly appreciated!
Firebase support is still an open issue on Metabase: https://github.com/metabase/metabase/issues/4213
Noteworthy comment/opinion from contributor/CEO of Metabase:
For what it's worth, for firebase specifically, we'd strongly suggest getting your database and/or analytics events into BigQuery somehow vs coding against the database rest api directly.
I'm leaving this issue open in case to not squash anyone's motivation, but even if it does get addressed in a PR, I'd still recommend using BQ =)

I'm creating an app that recognizes the songs of some web radio feeds, I would need to parse feeds to find songs, I found a paid service (ACRCloud) that allows you to do so, but the cost is high given the number of radios that I would like to analyze, so I searched a bit and found Echoprint, I could use it for my purpose? Would be suitable? Why don't I find the documentation ... I don't know, maybe there are better solutions? Thank you
Echoprint would generate good fingerprints for your usage (exact copy of musics, recognition time in the scale of tens of seconds).
However, you will have to maintain a database of known musics. Which is difficult to keep up to date.
The mothership of Echoprint, the Echo Nest, offered music recognition in the past, but this seems now over. Though, a server designed as fingerprint storage and retrieval is free to use.
What you could do to generate a database is:
fetch metadata from some streams, when available.
download the youtube version of those musics. See the youtube-dl tool for that (disclaimer, this may be violating the TOS of youtube)
inject fingerprints in the echo nest server.
This could bootstrap efficiently your system. But you may have a hard time reaching the performance of paying services like ACRCloud and similar. It depends on your requirements.
We run a service for our website which follows 9 radio stations, using the internet stream of those stations. We show real time what is playing on those stations.
The library (in c#) and a database of 1.3 million fingerprints can be found at:
https://github.com/nelemans1971/AudioFingerprinting
Example programs include the software to follow a radio station.

I am looking for a third-party service or tool that can trigger or hit a web page at scheduled times. Does anyone know of any? I currently use my windows scheduler to hit these pages, but there are gaps in this since I don't run my computer 24 / 7.
There are lots of free website monitoring services out there that check your site's availability by testing whether a given URL responds properly. One that I use is http://mon.itor.us/ Give it the URL of your page and that will do the trick.
One other alternative is Pingdom. They offer a free account for monitoring one web site. You can set Pingdom to send email or SMS if your site goes down and you can configure the service to hit your page for example once in every 5 minutes. You can set the check resolution quite freely.
Some other alternatives are MonitorUs (which RichieHindle already mentioned), SiteUptime and HyperSpin.
I created an open source app called Pinger. You can do unlimited URLs with intervals of your choosing. The docs has instructions for getting running on Heroku quickly:
https://github.com/austinthecoder/pinger
Only problem is, currently, you can only set an interval, not a specific time.

What do you use to monitor the uptime / performance of your websites, specifically those based on a PHP/MySQL platform like Wordpress?
I'm looking for something that alerts me if the site is down, or performing too slowly, and has some useful (not volumeous!) charts showing me any potential problems, and what to do about them.
Thanks!
We along with the usual Nagios, we use Pingdom. It comes with lots of default checks.
For example it also reports how fast your website is or since they employ tests from different locations you get a nice graph how accessible your website was. To put some sense into it, add a reference check (e.g. google) and see how you perform.
Aside from HTTP etc. you can also check other services (mail, database, etc.). If they are not reachable from the outside, you can always create a script that outputs a standard "OK" and have Pingdom check on that, and report back if the output changed.
I should add that Pingdom is not a free service. But we've been using them for 10 months now and they haven't troubled us. :)
