MILES device keys

every request to the MILES api requires a deviceKey parameter. a random device key will result in unpredictable, incorrect query results.

methods to retrieve a device key

copying from network traffic

1. install the MILES app on an android device or virtual machine
2. root the device and install a ssl certificate to be able to read the traffic
3. use a package sniffer (e.g. HTTP Toolkit, Wireshark) to intercept HTTP requests
4. copy the device key from a request body
