This template will deploy HERE’s enterprise-grade SLA-backed maps and location services as serverless functions along with an event hub, and a cosmos DB, that are used in real-time data streaming and processing for data-intensive applications. HERE Maps & Location Services solve a range of problems like map visualization, navigation, routing, geocoding, time zone lookups, geofencing, custom locations, routing, route matching GPS traces, geospatial, sequencing multiple waypoints, truck routing, positioning, etc.

HERE Maps & Location Services power a number of use cases like Fleet Utilization, Supply Chain Optimization, Urban Mobility, etc. These services open new location intelligence opportunities in diverse industries like the Internet of Things, Automotive, Insurance, Advertising, Mobile Payments, Public Sector, Smart Cities, Telecom, Utilities, and Transportation and Logistics.

The function app in this ARM Template consists of the following HERE Location Service APIs:

Geocoding & Search:

• Geocoder: Forward & Reverse
• Batch Geocoder
• Geocoder Autocomplete
• Places

Maps:

• Map Image
• Map Tile

Navigation & Routing:

• Routing - Mode (car, truck, public transit, bicycle) and algorithm (matrix, isoline routing)

Fleet Telematics:

• Considering toll costs along a route
• Working with geofences
• Working with custom locations
• Building custom routes
• Integrating advanced HERE data sets
• Route matching GPS traces
• Calculating an optimal sequence of waypoints

More APIs:

• Positioning - Provides positioning estimates based on global Wi-Fi and Cell coverage, which includes the latitude and longitude of the position with accuracy.
