Avoiding too many Google Maps Geocoding requests

We seem to have hit a limit for google maps request. Here’s a screenshot from the Google Console in the next post. As you see, mostly it is Geocoding.

We use Google Maps only on a few pages like the contact page and with the shortcode gmap address="xyz".

Would it be possible that one can enter lat/long coordinates instead of the street address. That is as an alternative option for the gmap shortcode and the contact page. This way the geocoding request would not require the Google Geocoding API (and also load faster).
