No Vendor Lock–in
Want to display Google geocode results on a non-Google map? Not so fast! Google locks you into using their maps for displaying geocoding, routing, and other API results. We don't!
Plus, our maps are available in industry-standard formats, so you have a choice of high-quality rendering SDKs on all major platforms (even desktop!). Our strong integrations with popular mapping libraries including MapLibre (which we're active contributors to) and Leaflet, giving you the flexibility to grow and adapt your solutions without fear of future incompatibility.
Flexible Routing API
At Stadia Maps, we know routing is more than just getting around on major highways with cars, which is why we offer one of the most flexible routing APIs on the market.
Need to match points to a route but hampered by the 100 point limit in Google's Snap to Roads API?
- Require more specialized routing that accommodates LSV/quadricycle regulations or avoids unlit areas at night?
- Developing a logistics tool for your last-mile delivery fleet?
Our flexible routing APIs are up to the task.
“After support and functionality frustrations with another vendor, we switched to Stadia Maps and haven’t looked back!

Permanent Geocoding
Need to cache and store the results of your geocoding requests? As long as you have an active subscription to our Standard or Professional plan, you can do just that.
Commitment to Privacy
Location APIs often involve sensitive information. At Stadia Maps, we put privacy first by intentionally retaining as little data as possible. We'll even work with you to create a solution that goes above and beyond the legal requirements of GDPR and CCPA, like we did for HolidayCheck .
- Our SDKs are fully open-source, enabling anyone to audit the code.
- We don't collect telemetry data from your users.
- We don't use cookies in our APIs (or even on this marketing website).
- We don't store your users' request logs longer than 30 days.
- We don't share any user data with anyone, and we never will.
