GitHub OpenAPI

Operations 3

GET /v8/match/routelinks Match a short GPS trace to roads via query string · Match GPS traces to get the most probably driven path. #
Ask an LLM
“How can I snap a handful of GPS waypoints to the road network with a simple GET?”
“Is a GET with the waypoints in the query string enough to match a short GPS trace?”
Tell an agent
Match waypoints {waypointN} to the most probable {mode} route using a GET request.
Snap the query-string trace {waypointN} to roads for a {mode}, avoiding areas {avoidAreas}.
POST /v8/match/routelinks Match an uploaded GPS trace to the driven path · Match GPS traces to get the most probable driven path. #
Ask an LLM
“How do I match a large GPS trace file to the path a truck actually drove?”
“Can route matching reconstruct the journey's coordinates and report toll costs?”
Tell an agent
Match the GPS trace in the request body to the driven {mode} route.
Post this trace for {mode} route matching and return path coordinates {pathCoordinates}.
POST /v8/maps/overlays/upload Upload a custom overlay map for route matching · Submit an overlay map for customized route matching.- Deprecated #
Ask an LLM
“Can I block or add road links privately so route matching uses my changes?”
“Are overlay map edits visible to other customers?”
Tell an agent
Upload overlay map changes {overlay_spec} for route matching.
Submit overlay {overlay_spec} as map {mapName} using the deprecated overlay upload.
