HERE Technologies Location Services
How HERE Location Services can help your business
Location data is complex. In this rapidly changing world, capturing, storing, aggregating and analysing data on the real world is costly and quickly becomes stale.
HERE Technologies Location Services make it simple for organisations to access high quality and up-to-date location data and use this to power everything from critical enterprise applications to simple location data requests such as geocoding or route finding.
Supported by a global infrastructure network, HERE Technologies Location Services are scalable and reliable for organisations of all sizes and support desktop, web-based and mobile native applications.
As a HERE Technologies distributor in Australia and New Zealand, Next Mile Location Technology is here to help provide you with powerful HERE Technologies Location Services and support in implementing these into your business solution.

HERE Map rendering
Several businesses rely on detailed, accurate and up-to-date maps. Interactive base maps such as a street map or satellite imagery provide businesses and application users with important visual information and context for all use cases.
HERE Maps are accurate and reliable base maps layered with satellite imagery with coverage for over 200 countries. These maps are enriched with, on average, five million daily updates from customers.
HERE Routing
Creating the most efficient route across various modes of transport, from foot to truck, is crucial for applications that support consumers and businesses operating on the roads.
HERE’s intelligent routing algorithms can be integrated into applications to enable users to:
· Plan optimal routes using real-time and historical traffic patterns
· Plan fleet routes using Isoline Routing
· Calculate accurate ETAs (estimated time of arrival) across many modes of transport using Intermodal Routing
· Plan journeys with multiple origins and destinations using Matrix Routing.
A key component of HERE Routing is the integrated truck routing for built-up environments. HERE Routing incorporates truck-specific speed profiling along with HAZMAT, legal and physical (height and weight) road restrictions. This ensures that businesses have all necessary information to plan optimised and safer routes for their fleet that adhere to varying state and city regulatory requirements.
HERE Geocoding & Search
When people or businesses are operating in unfamiliar surroundings, they want accurate information about the places around them.
As a business, identifying an address of a store, customer or fixed asset accurately the first time can save time and effort by reducing the number of invalid addresses and the downstream operational costs incurred by field workers.
HERE Geocoding & Search provides scalability to enterprise and mobile apps, enabling users to search for and gain access to navigable and display positions for 300 million addresses and 125 million POIs across 65 countries. The batch geocoder enables enterprises to process millions of addresses or latitude and longitude locations with forward and reverse geocoding functionality. Users can also gain value at every turn with access to details for POIs such as phone numbers, website links, opening hours, customer photos, reviews and more.
HERE Traffic
Government agencies and enterprises around the world are constantly seeking new ways to manage traffic congestion and help consumers and businesses plan for safer and more efficient journeys. However, it is often difficult to obtain traffic insights across a full road network.
HERE Traffic provides real-time and historical traffic flow as map tiles and traffic flow speeds for specific segments of road as well as the location and types of traffic incidents such as accidents, construction, congestion and more.
Businesses and public sector entities can leverage the Traffic API to understand entire road networks and can make data-driven decisions around infrastructure planning, road network management, land use and more.
HERE Transit
People need reliable travel information in order to feel safe and satisfied when moving across different modes of transport. HERE Transit helps commuters choose the quickest route and transit mode using train and bus information, as well as identify stairs, pathways and bridges, to help users stay connected and on-time.
With HERE pulling information from a rich array of public transport sources and having this information overlaid on the HERE base map, commuters can ensure they receive a dynamic and seamless transit experience in the mobile and enterprise apps.
HERE SDK
Businesses are building mobile-first and mobile-native applications to keep up with the changing digital landscape.
The HERE Technologies SDK leverages the location services available from HERE and enables mobile users to get navigation via different travel modes both indoors and outdoors, as well as online and offline.
HERE Tour Planning
Meeting the demands of today’s customers requires your fleet to operate at its complete capacity, optimising efficiency wherever possible. Because of the connected world we live in, customers want next-day delivery, express shipping, and detailed order tracking. Customers want speed and convenience. With countless moving parts, complexity of supply chains and personnel all feeding into delivery and services, fleet managers have to operate with the utmost efficiency and consideration.
To meet these demands, utilise the dynamic HERE Tour Planning API. This advanced fleet management API uses location services to organise tours in advance or in real time. As a many-to-many route optimisation tool, specified constraints are controlled by you. It organises your day’s jobs into tours and allocates vehicles and drivers in your fleet, dependent on requirements such as: refrigeration, delivery time windows, vehicle height and weight, driver shifts and rest times, fuel or energy consumption, and locations. You can save costs with multi-stop routes optimised for efficiency, automated by HERE Tour Planning.
