The API supports multiple transport modes:
- Driving
- Public transport
- Walking
- Cycling
This flexibility allows users to plan routes according to their preferred mode of travel.
How are the routes calculated?
The API uses real-world data, including traffic patterns, public transit schedules, and transport infrastructure, to calculate accurate travel times and distances. For public transport, it considers timetables, route changes, and waiting times. For driving, it incorporates road conditions and typical traffic at the specified time of day.
Is there SDK support for the Routes API?
Yes, TravelTime provides SDKs in various programming languages, including Python, Java, Node.js, and more, to facilitate integration with your applications.
