Navigation & Routing

A well-oiled routing machine

Flexible Routing

Our routing APIs help you find the best route for cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, and more. Coverage is global, instructions are available in 25+ languages, and there are dozens of tunable options from vehicle width to bicycle type and everything in-between. It's so flexible that we put together a 2000+ word guide to help you can get the best routes for your use case.

We were at our wits end trying to offer golf cart routing for our residents using another navigation solution. We couldn't even release our first prototype to the public, since people would have been getting tickets or worse! After almost a year of work, we found Stadia Maps. They helped us deliver routes that complied with our rules in a matter of weeks, and even walked us through how to update road and path information ourselves as our city grows!

Easy Route Optimization

Need to visit four stores but don't care which order? Want to optimize for fuel-efficiency on your delivery route? Our route optimization API helps you plan single-vehicle trips more efficiently.

Time/Distance Matrix

Looking for more complex route optimization for your fleet? Integrate our time-distance matrix API with tools like OptaPlanner and VROOM to optimize scheduling and fuel consumption.

Turn-by-Turn Navigation

Are you building driver or rider apps? In-dash navigation systems? Our next-gen navigation SDK, Ferrostar, includes both the core navigation logic and composable UI components you need to build great navigation experiences. And just like our routing APIs, it's really flexible.

Navigation is challenging, both from a tech and product perspective. That's why we're here to help find the best solutions for your use case, from on-device rerouting to support and everything in-between. Send us an email to get the discussion started.

After support and functionality frustrations with another vendor, we switched to Stadia Maps and haven’t looked back!

Nearest Roads, Map Matching, & Trace Attributes

Looking to pinpoint the closest street to a specific location? Our nearest roads API will lead the search. Need to match a GPS trace to the nearest roads? Our map matching API will turn the noisy data into a route with turn-by-turn maneuver guidance. Want to access road information like posted speed limit, grade, signs, or surface quality? Our trace attributes API provides the details.

Isochrones

How far can you travel in 15 minutes? What's reachable in that last 20 miles before you run out of gas? How walkable is this neighborhood? Our isochrone API helps you answer these important mobility, search, and urban planning questions by calculating the areas that are reachable within a a time or distance limit.

SDKs Available in Popular Languages

Our open source SDKs get you up and running with just a few lines of code.
