OpenRouteService

The OpenRouteService API is a web-based service that provides optimized route planning, estimated travel times, and distance calculations for various modes of transportation.It allows users to generate routes between multiple waypoints, compute isochrones, and access additional features like alternative routes, elevation profiles, and traffic - based routing . You can explore its features and test queries in the API playground .

Openrouteservice API services:

🚗 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.

📅 Isochrones

Reachability is a crucial component for many organizations. Use openrouteservice to obtain isochrones to determine which areas objects can reach in given times or distances.

📊 Time-Distance Matrix

Matrices allow you to compute many-to-many distances and times of routes efficiently. Frequently used by logistics organizations for optimal delivery routes.

📍 Pelias Geocoding

Geocoding transforms a location description into a normalized point geometry. Built on top of the sophisticated Pelias Stack, aggregating multiple data sources.

📌 POIs

Openpoiservice allows you to find places of interest around or within given geographic coordinates and search for categories of points of interest.

🏔️ Elevation

Use our Openelevationservice to enrich 2D geometries with height information based on SRTM data, returning a 3D version within milliseconds.

🛤️ Optimization

Solve Traveling Salesmen and Vehicle Routing Problems using our optimization endpoint, based on the Vroom project.
