Introduction
HERE Maps and Location Services Data Streams ARM Template bring enterprise-grade, SLA
backed location services to Azure applications. HERE Maps and location services solve a
range of problems from map visualization, navigation and routing, geocoding, time zone look
ups to geofencing, custom locations and routing, route matching GPS traces, geospatial,
sequencing multiple waypoints, truck routing, positioning, etc.

Solution Template Overview


HERE Maps & Location Services Data Streams ARM Template deploys HERE's enterprise class
SLA backed Maps & Location Services for all your Azure Applications.

These services address a range of use cases like Fleet Utilization, Supply Chain Optimization,
Urban Movement, etc., and open up new location intelligence opportunities in diverse
industries like Automotive, Insurance, Internet and Media, Mobile Payments, Public Sector
and Infrastructure, Telecom and Utilities, and Transportation and Logistics.

The function app in this ARM Template consists of the following HERE Location Service APIs:

Geocoding and Search

• Geocoder: Forward and Reverse


• Batch Geocoder
• Geocoder Autocomplete
• Places

Maps

• Map Image
• Map Tile

Navigation and Routing

• Routing - Mode (car, truck, public transit, bicycle) and algorithm (matrix, isoline
routing)
• Public Transit

Acquiring HERE Api Key


All users of HERE APIs must obtain authentication and authorization credentials and provide
them as values for the parameter HERE in the HERE Credentials section in Azure’s template
deployment page.

To obtain the credentials for the deployment of HERE Maps & Location Services Serverless
Functions, please visit https://developer.here.com to register for FREE with HERE.

Technical Guide for using Solution Template on Azure Portal


Data Streams backend ingest incoming message on Event Hub in JSON format , this message
internally converts to HERE Rest URL by underlying serverless functions and API response get
stored in COSMOS DB in JSON format.

HERE API URL to service-bus message mapping described as below


Sample HERE Api Key : {HERE_API_KEY}

Geocoder :

HERE API URL : https://geocode.search.hereapi.com/v1/geocode?apikey={HERE_API_KEY}&q=5


Rue Daunou, 75000 Paris, France

JSON message format:

"uid" : "<unique_id>",

"api" : "<geocoder | places | routing | positioning | map_image | map_tile/traffic,


map_tile/base | map_tile/aerial | map_tile/pano | fleet>",

"url" : "<part of the URL with server & apikey",

"method" : "<get/post>",

"body" : "<applicable when method is post>",

"contenttype" : "<type of post body>"

}

Translated JSON Message :

"uid" : "<unique_id>",

"api" : "geocoder",

"url" : " v1/geocode?q=5 Rue Daunou, 75000 Paris, France ",

"method" : "get",
}

Few more examples as below to show the mappings:
