What is OpenRouteService.org?
Directions – Openrouteservice’s directions can be used all around the globe. Consume rich route instructions in your applications for cars, trucks, different bike profiles, walking, hiking or wheelchair. Make use of plenty of options, ranging from different kinds of road restrictions to vehicle dimensions.
Isochrones – Reachability has become a crucial component for many businesses from all different kinds of domains. To this end, you can use openrouteservice to obtain isochrones which will help you determine which areas objects are able reach in given times or distances.
Time-Distance Matrix – Matrices allow you to compute many-to-many distances and the times of routes much faster than consuming the directions api over and over again. This application is frequently used by logistics companies trying to figure out the most optimal route for deliveries.
Pelias Geocoding – Geocoding transforms a description of a location, such as a place name, street address or postal code, into a normalized description of the location with a point geometry. Our geocoding service is built on top of the sophisticated Pelias Stack which aggregates several data sources.
POIs – Openpoiservice allows you to find places of interest around or within given geographic coordinates. You can search for categories of points of interest around a point, path or even within a given polygon and consume the rich meta information returned by the api for your needs.
Elevation – Use our Openelevationservice to easily enrich your 2D geometries with height information based on SRTM data. Pass Point or Line geometries in different formats and recieve the 3 dimensional version back within milliseconds in your preferred format.
Optimization – Traveling Salesmen and other Vehicle Routing Problems are no problem for our optimization endpoint. Based on the excellent Vroom project this service provides you with optimal routes while considering your specific vehicle and time constraints.
Comments and Reviews
Prefect service to plan a route with OpenStreetMap-based maps. Easy to add isochrones, specify access to or avoid certain way types.
