Navigation and routes
Create new logistics solutions and optimize existing ones. Define reachable zones and build routes that take traffic forecasts and other parameters into account
Distance Matrix
Calculates travel time and route length for all combinations of origins and destinations. Works over the HTTPS protocol.
Overview
Calculates routes for a specified time, taking into account predicted traffic jams and historical congestion stats.
Routes for different modes of travel — on foot, by car or public transport.
Option to exclude the use of toll roads.
Automatic linking of inquiry points to the road graph.
Fast response when requesting large matrices.
Benefits for your business
Create B2B and B2C logistics solutions.
Optimize routes for couriers based on traffic forecasts and mode of travel.
Find the organizations you want along with the quickest ways to reach them from your starting point.
Indicate special areas that you want to exclude from your route.
new
Process up to 25 million elements in a single response for efficient large-scale operations.
How Distance Matrix works
Allows you to calculate route length and duration. The calculation is performed for all combinations of departure and destination points.
The API response contains a distance matrix in JSON-format, as well as information about the duration of each generated segment.
Road congestion and traffic jam forecasts are always taken into account when calculating the time required to complete a segment.
Use cases
The matrix lets you figure out route length and duration by calculating all combinations of departure and destination points. The API response contains a distance matrix in JSON format as well as information about the duration of each segment generated.
Retrieving Route Details
The API plots the optimal route between two or more points on the map. The calculations take the mode of travel into account — whether the user is travelling by car, public transport, or on foot. Traffic jams can also be forecast for a specified time. It all works over the HTTPS protocol.
Overview
Plot a detailed route with turns, forks, and up-to-date information about driving conditions (signs, speed limits, speed bumps, and so on).
Construction of routes through several intermediate points.
Take predicted and historical traffic jams for the set time and method of transport into account.
Option of excluding the use of toll roads.
Automatic binding of request points to the road graph.
Business benefits
Create and upgrade B2B and B2C logistics solutions.
Assist your drivers with turn-by-turn navigation, helping them find the path that best matches their demands: shortest, fastest, cheapest, and so on.
Сreate a route from point A to point B, bypassing unwanted zones between them.
Optimize the waypoints order in terms of time and mileage, taking into account traffic jams and weather conditions.
How Retrieving route details works
In response, the API provides a route split into several segments. Each section consists of several steps represented by polylines. Each segment includes the road quality data and estimated time.
Use cases
This API is used to optimize the delivery of goods to end users or distribution centers, and build routes for personnel who service equipment, as well as other logistics-related tasks. Often used by online grocery delivery services, banks, and FMCG companies.
NaviKit SDK
A set of tools for integrating navigation features into your app. Use interactive maps, place search, route building, panoramas, and other features to plan and customize navigation for light and heavy vehicles.
Overview
Use a ready-made toolkit to develop navigation features for your app and customize them for your business needs.
Plan detailed door-to-door routes that account for traffic and the type of transportation, be it a car or a truck.
Set route parameters (like avoiding toll roads and picking routes suitable for specific vehicle dimensions).
Build in the limitations you need for drivers, like maximum speed or uninterrupted travel time.
Create your own voice prompts or use our built-in voiceovers, so drivers can hear directions while they're en route and keep their eyes on the road.
Get alternative routes when road conditions change or a faster option appears.
Provide automatic recommendations for gas or charging stations along the route, based on the vehicle's remaining range.
Integrate HD maps with detailed road markings and lane guidance for more accurate navigation.
new
Integrate custom routes planned with your own logic or external route-planning tools.
Benefits for your business
Settle for nothing less than the navigation features your business needs, especially if you have your eye on specialized functionality or full-cycle logistics (from assignment to directions).
Streamline routes for your drivers, leading them right to their destination without delays.
Make life easier for your operators — drivers with detailed turn-by-turn directions don't need to call in for clarifications as often.
Boost the quality of your services by tracking your drivers on the map and ensuring they adhere to regulations.
Enhance the user experience by providing a realistic 3D display of the major points of interest.
Create a seamless navigation experience by displaying maps as customizable widgets in vehicles with multiple screens.
new
Simplify route integration with the Route Matcher feature, allowing you to use custom geometry without compromising navigation accuracy.
How NaviKit SDK works
The SDK has all the tools you need to enhance your iOS or Android app with turn-by-turn navigation. With it, you can display routes that account for traffic conditions and speed limits, find convenient alternative routes in case road conditions change, set up navigation with voice prompts, and more.
Use cases
NaviKit SDK can be useful for car manufacturers, mining companies, and any businesses which involve delivery and logistics services. With it, you can integrate a branded navigator into on-board car computers or develop your own mobile app with navigation features specifically tailored to your business needs. For example, logistics managers can set rules for safe cargo transportation by customizing speed limits and setting the maximum time allowed for uninterrupted driving. Additionally, mining companies can provide advance warnings about turns to allow more time for maneuvers on complex routes.
Isochrone API
The API identifies accessible areas from a specific point within a target time. It considers road conditions and the mode of transportation.
Overview
Determine accessible areas based on different modes of transportation: car, public transport, bicycle, scooter, or walking
Improve the accuracy of results by considering weather forecasts
Get real-time data which adapts to changing road conditions
Benefits for your business
Define the areas that your delivery personnel can reach from a specific point within fixed timeframes
Determine from which branches employees can reach the desired location fastest to optimize their work and reduce customer waiting times
Help your e-vehicle drivers choose charging stations that they can reach in the required time
How Isochrone works
Select a starting point and mode of transportation. Define the number of zones and the timeframe for each — it can be 10 minutes, 30 minutes, or up to one hour. The results, provided in JSON format, can be visualized on a map using the JavaScript API, MapKit SDK, NaviKit SDK, or Static API.
Use cases
Isochrone helps last-mile delivery services, restaurants, and aggregators determine delivery zones based on the time it takes to deliver an order to the customer.
