What is a "unit"?
A "unit" is based on 1 geohash for a 30 minutes window.
What is a geohash?
Geohash is the geocode system, which subdivides Earth's surface into buckets of grid shape and encodes each cell into a short strings of letters and digits. It is a hierarchical data structure, so the longer the geohash string is, the more precise the grographic location will be.
Example
Customer requests one area in Paris that is touching 8 geohash for 2 hours (assuming he has already reached 1001 units, but less then 5000.
Price per unit is based on 0.04€ and total cost for request is 0.04€ x 8 (nr of geohash) x 4 (number of 30-minute slots) = 1.28 €
