What you get

Everything you need to ship a map product.

One API. Five purpose-built endpoints. Backed by OpenRouteService, OSM and our own auth layer.

Directions

Turn-by-turn driving, walking and cycling routes across South Africa. GeoJSON or polyline output.

POST /ors/v2/directions/{profile}

Reach (isochrones)

"How far can I get in 15 minutes?" Service-area polygons for delivery, real estate, EV planning.

POST /ors/v2/isochrones/{profile}

ETA matrix

One-to-many or many-to-many travel times. Pick the closest driver, sort customers by ETA.

POST /ors/v2/matrix/{profile}

Geocoding

Address → coordinates and reverse. ZA-biased by default. Drop-in alternative to Google Geocoding.

GET /geocode?q=…  ·  GET /reverse
