OpenRouteService

Routing and geospatial APIs with a free standard key

About OpenRouteService

openrouteservice, run by HeiGIT, provides routing and geospatial APIs built on OpenStreetMap data, covering directions, isochrones, geocoding and related endpoints. Developers sign up for a HeiGIT account that includes a free standard API key, manage keys in a dashboard, and call the endpoints from their applications. The backend is open source and can also be installed and configured independently for custom deployments with specific data or performance needs.
