Bring mapping functionality to your own website or business applications
Help your customers find you. With the
Whereis® API you can easily include dynamic maps, turn-by-turn directions,
and other mapping functions in your own business applications, including websites and wireless devices.
How does it work?
An API is a tool (like a programming language) that allows functionality from one computer
system to be used by a totally unrelated computer system. The Whereis® API provides access to our mapping and navigation functionality
so businesses can use it to integrate maps and other mapping services into their own computer systems.
Who uses it?
Any business or government department with people who have technical computer skills (such as programmers) can use the Whereis® API.
How will it help my business?
Putting maps, directions and store locators on your website makes it easier for your customers to find you, but that's just the beginning.
Would your business benefit from being able to track vehicles, plan routes to visit customers or plot locations on a map? What about combining your
sales and customer data with a map to look for patterns or opportunities? With the Whereis® API, you can use mapping to benefit your business in many ways.
How much does it cost?
The Whereis® API is a robust, reliable commercial mapping solution complete with professional support. Prices vary depending on how you want to use the service
so it's best to contact us to discuss your needs first by calling Whereis® Customer Service on 1800 819 471.
