Introduction

The Intermodal Routing API v8 is an HTTP JSON REST API that offers an innovative and smart routing experience across cities. The consolidated public transit offer is intertwined with external mobility services dynamically scattered in urban areas, and provides a wide set of ready-to-use mobility options to quickly navigate between a given pair of locations.

The Intermodal Routing API v8 combines four distinct transport types: vehicle, transit, taxi, and rented, to create multiple intermodal services. The availability of each service depends on the availability of the transport types and modes of transport in the urban context across which you move.

The Intermodal Routing API v8 can use a combination of the following routing services:

• Support for vehicle routing.
• Intermodal routing with real-time and timetable departures.
• Pedestrian routing with pedestrian connectivity.
• Real-time traffic and traffic incidents.
• Support for public transit routing.
• Public transit service delays and disruption information from transit authorities.
• Amenities available at transit stations or nearby, such as parking, EV charging stations, and so on.
• Rentable services available at transit stations or nearby, such as car sharing, taxi, bike, and so on.

Urban mobility evolves in parallel with the city. HERE anticipates the need for an open-ended list of values through the x-extensible-enum swagger functionality. For example, unknown values such as new transport modes should be expected in the response and should be handled gracefully.

The following schema types are considered extendable:

• Place
• Transport
• Action
• Price
• NoticeDetail

Data privacy is of fundamental importance to HERE and our customers. We practice data minimization and don’t collect data we don’t need. And we promote pseudonymity for data subjects wherever a service does not require personal information to function. We employ privacy by design in services we develop. We strive to go beyond mere regulatory compliance and make privacy an integral part of our corporate culture. We believe that our approach to privacy is vital to earning and retaining the trust of our customers – and the bedrock of our future success as a data-driven location platform.
