No matter if in remote rural areas, or in the megacities of the world, our walk routing works anywhere, calculating the best walk routes and turn-by-turn directions. Built on top of OpenStreetMaps (OSM), with then adding multiple layers of detail on top of it.

Features#

Turn-by-Turn instructions

When walking, turn-by-turn instructions are key when navigating your route. Our experience guides users through their journey in real-time, with many features such as detailed turn instructions on both the map and list, 3D map view, compass orientation, contextual map-zoom, route overview toggle, real-time ETA countdown, time based distance info, and automatic rerouting.

Multiple Walk Profiles

Let your users choose which walk routes they prefer. Choose between “Fast” which gets them there the quickest or choose “Main Roads”, which calculates a route using only main roads, helping your users navigate more safely after dark.

Avoiding steep hills

Our router combines elevation data with the walking graph, finding routes that avoid steep hills by automatically routing around them.

Pedestrian zone priority

Our router automatically calculates routes favouring pedestrian zones, finding routes that avoid busy roads and cars as much as possible.

Powered by the best data in the industry#

Our ‘Data Factory’, a suite of proprietary tools built over a decade, aggregates, processes, and maintains all the data underlying our Walk Router.

High-resolution detail

Our Walking Graph covers the highest level of detail, including roads types, surface materials, pedestrian areas, stairs, station graphs, and elevation.
