Route

Distance, duration and geometry between two or more points, with optional avoidance of city-centre zero-emission zones.

Matrix

Up to 250×250 origins and destinations in one call — the usual input for a next-day delivery plan.

Windows

Feasible arrival windows for an address, taking loading restrictions and canal bridge schedules into account.

Why a regional API

Global providers model the Netherlands as ordinary road network. In practice the awkward parts are local: bridges that open on a published schedule, streets that close to freight after 11:00, and ferries that count as road links. We only cover NL and BE, and we cover those properly.
