Data and Insights
Azure Maps makes it easy to use and integrate accurate geospatial data into your applications to unlock new insights.
Data Registry APIs
Data Registry APIs enable you to register geospatial data in an Azure Storage Account with Azure Maps. This allows you to manage and use your stored data for many use cases, such as custom geofences or preferred routes.
All In One Place
Data Registry APIs allow storing, retrieving, and managing your geospatial data and insights. You can save previously created geofences, routes, and more. Storing and retrieving frequently used geospatial data, and calculations makes applications quicker and more efficient.
Timezone
The timezone service allows developers to query the timezone for any latitude/longitude. The timezone service can return past, current, and future timezones, localized time zones in UTC, or daylight savings in various formats.
Traffic Data
The traffic service provides data on traffic flow and incidents for a given area or route and presents this information as a map overlay using the traffic data API. This data provides insights and critical awareness of flow and incidents along a route that could affect routes, distance, and travel time between locations.
Weather Data
The weather service provides daily, historical, normal, and actuals for any latitude/longitude while also providing temperature, air quality, and storm information using the weather data API. The Weather service provides valuable data to inform prediction and modeling based on current and forecasted data allowing for the development of applications that are weather-informed.
