Introduction

The HERE Traffic Vector Tile API allows you to request traffic tiles containing vector data for HERE real-time traffic flow and incident information.

Traffic vector tiles contain specific traffic information and geometries (such as points and lines) that define polygons that are typically passed to a renderer to create a map.

Traffic vector tiles use Web Mercator projection and follow the Vector Tile Specification and each tile is encoded using Protobuf.

The HERE Traffic Vector Tile API supports the following use cases:

• Requesting only incident events
• Requesting only flows events
• Requesting both incidents and flows events

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.
