HERE Location Services Documentation
RESTful web services that serve different purposes - from search, to geocoding, to routing.
Whether you're providing truck routing for fleets or navigating users through the city with different transport modes, HERE REST APIs provide you with everything you need to put location at the heart of your app: maps, weather information, batch geocoding, comprehensive routing and more.
Additional advanced location features include geofencing (entry and exit notifications), custom and private roads, speed limits, traffic lights and road curvature.

|
Get access to pre-rendered map images that are optimized for desktop and mobile devices. Add route polygons, POI labels and other objects on top of the map to give your users the insights they need. |
|
|
Integrate client-side rendered vector tiles and customize the look and feel of the map by changing, removing or adding specific map properties or objects. |
|
|
Accurately pinpoint geo-coordinates, addresses and Places/POIs on the map; explore a vast database of Places/POIs through one box search and get better suggestions with fewer strokes with autosuggest. |
|
|
Complete complex journeys more efficiently with advanced routing algorithms including truck routing, large scale matrix routing and traffic-enabled routing. Get accurate ETAs and routing instructions in over 108 languages. |
|
|
Provide the best public transit routes while highlighting walking directions to stops, pedestrian access points, station locations and transfer locations along the way. |
|
|
Provide a choice of routes that combine car, bike, taxi, pedestrian and public transit modes while taking into account several variables: real-time traffic, incidents, public transit timetables and other dynamic information. |
|
|
Add real-world context to your application by integrating real-time and historical traffic information about accidents, congestion, construction and more. |
|
|
Integrate advanced algorithms ready to solve complex location problems, such as toll cost calculation, route matching GPS traces and geofencing. |
|
|
Get current weather reports or weather forecasts and check for severe weather alerts at a specific location. |
