Reference

Forward Geocoding

Converts addresses or location names into geographic coordinates and place information, enabling you to pinpoint exact locations for mapping and location-based services.

Get Isochrone

Calculate and visualize areas that can be reached within a specific travel time or distance from any location, helping you understand service coverage and accessibility zones.

Retrieve Directions

Get navigation routes and turn-by-turn directions between two or more locations, including travel time and distance estimates.

Retrieve Matrix

Calculate travel times and distances between multiple locations simultaneously, enabling you to compare routes and optimize multi-stop journeys efficiently.

Reverse Geocoding

Converts latitude and longitude coordinates into readable location names and addresses. Useful when you have a location's coordinates but need the actual place name, street address, or city information.

Search Box Forward

Finds locations, addresses, and points of interest by searching for place names or addresses, helping you locate destinations and verify location data quickly.

Batch Geocode V6

Convert multiple addresses or coordinates into geographic data in a single request, enabling efficient processing of large location datasets without making separate API calls.

Batch Geocoding

Convert multiple addresses or coordinates into geographic data in a single request, handling up to 50 locations at once for efficient bulk processing.

Forward Geocode V5

Converts place names and addresses into geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) to power location-based features in your applications. This enables you to build mapping functionality, location search, and proximity-based services without manually managing coordinate data.

Get Access Token

Retrieves your Mapbox access token from your account connection, enabling you to use Mapbox services in your workflows and applications. This ensures you have valid authentication credentials for location-based features.

Get Map Matching

Aligns inaccurate GPS tracking data to actual road networks, automatically correcting location traces for accurate mapping and analysis. Perfect for cleaning up noisy location data from mobile devices or IoT sensors.

Get Optimization V1

Calculates the most efficient route and order to visit multiple locations, saving time and fuel costs on deliveries or service visits. Automatically determines the optimal sequence of waypoints to minimize distance and travel time.

Get Sprite

Retrieve sprite assets (icon collections) from your Mapbox style in either JSON metadata format or as PNG images. Use this to access the icon graphics and positioning information needed to customize your map's visual appearance.

Get Static Image

Generate static map images from your Mapbox Studio style that can be embedded in documents, emails, or web pages with customizable location, zoom level, markers, and overlays.

Get Static Tiles

Retrieves map tile images from your Mapbox style at specific coordinates and zoom levels, allowing you to embed custom maps into your applications or documents.

Get Token Information

Retrieve details and validate the status of your Mapbox access token to ensure your mapping services are working correctly. This helps you monitor token health and manage your API access permissions.

Get Vector Tiles

Retrieve map tile data from Mapbox for specific geographic areas and zoom levels to power custom mapping features in your applications. This enables you to display interactive maps with location-based information tailored to your users' needs.

Map Matching (POST)

Snap GPS coordinates to the actual road network to clean up and correct location data from GPS tracking. Ideal for handling longer lists of coordinates (2-100 points) that need to be aligned with real roads.

Permanent Forward Geocoding

Convert addresses or location names into precise geographic coordinates with enterprise-level reliability and permanent data storage. Use this when you need to batch-process large numbers of locations or maintain a persistent geocoding database for your business.

Permanent Reverse Geocoding

Convert latitude and longitude coordinates into human-readable addresses and place information that can be cached for future reference. This is useful when you have location data and need to get the actual street address, city, or business name associated with those coordinates.

Query Tile Features

Retrieve detailed information about geographic features (buildings, roads, landmarks) at specific locations from Mapbox tilesets, enabling you to understand what's around any coordinate point.

Request Style Embed HTML

Generate ready-to-use HTML code that embeds an interactive Mapbox map directly into your website or web application without writing custom code.

Retrieve Font Glyph Ranges

Fetches font glyph data in an optimized format to render text on custom maps, enabling you to display location labels and annotations in your preferred typeface.

Retrieve Marker

Fetch a standalone marker icon as a PNG image without any map context. Useful for obtaining marker graphics to use across your website, applications, or marketing materials.

Retrieve Searchbox Place Details

Fetches complete details about a specific location using its Mapbox ID, including address, coordinates, and business information. Use this when you've found a place in search results and need full information to display or verify details.

Retrieve Style

Retrieves the complete visual configuration of a Mapbox map, including all layers, sources, and styling rules in JSON format. Use this to inspect, analyze, or replicate how a map is rendered.

Retrieve Style WMTS

Retrieve an OGC-compliant WMTS capabilities document that enables you to integrate Mapbox map styles with desktop GIS applications and other WMTS-compatible mapping clients. This allows you to use Mapbox's professionally designed maps directly within tools like QGIS, ArcGIS, or Tableau without additional configuration.

Retrieve Tileset Metadata

Retrieve detailed information about a Mapbox tileset including its boundaries, zoom levels, and layer structure to understand what data is available in your map.

Reverse Geocoding V6

Convert latitude and longitude coordinates into readable addresses and place names, helping you identify exact locations from GPS data or map coordinates.

Search Box Reverse Geocoding

Converts geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) into readable place names and addresses, helping you identify locations on a map. This is useful when you have coordinates but need to understand what's actually at that location.

Search Box Suggest

Provides real-time autocomplete suggestions as users type partial searches to quickly find addresses and places without needing full details upfront. This helps create smooth search experiences that guide users toward their intended locations.

Search by Category

Find specific types of businesses and landmarks by category, such as restaurants, hotels, or coffee shops, with optional location filtering to narrow results to your area of interest.
