CAPABILITIES

What the HERE SDK delivers

Full map and route support — online and offline

Embed interactive maps with full routing capabilities in your mobile or web app. Offline map packages available for 250+ countries — users navigate without internet connectivity. Weekly map data updates keep offline content current.

Multiple transport mode routing

Route calculation for car, truck, bicycle, pedestrian, and public transit — all within the same SDK. Truck routing includes road restrictions, height limits, and hazmat route compliance. Switch transport modes without changing your integration architecture.

Vector map rendering — 2D and 3D

High-performance vector map rendering at all zoom levels. Supports 2D flat maps and 3D building representations for urban navigation and facility visualization. Smooth rendering on low-end devices through optimized tile processing.

Real-time traffic and dynamic route adjustments

Live traffic data integrated into SDK routing — ETAs update as conditions change. Dynamic rerouting suggestions when incidents or congestion affect the planned route. Historical traffic patterns available for predictive planning.

Custom map styling and overlays

Full control over map appearance — colors, fonts, icon sets, and layer visibility. Add custom overlays, GeoJSON layers, and external raster tiles on top of HERE base maps. Build branded map experiences that match your product UI.

Platform support — iOS, Android, Flutter, web

Native SDKs for iOS and Android with good key examples and detailed documentation. Flutter support for cross-platform mobile development. JavaScript SDK for web applications. Consistent API design across all platforms reduces context switching for development teams.
