The original cheat sheet for your reference

Introduction

Over the years, we have explored many HERE services in our blog posts and videos - services that power real-world applications for our partners and customers. As with any technology company, HERE Technologies continuously evolves - service names change, new products are introduced, and some older offerings are retired.

In this post, we are bringing it all together in a concise cheat sheet for quick reference. Whether you are a developer looking to integrate HERE APIs or simply curious about what HERE offers and how it works, this guide is for you.

HERE Maps API for JavaScript examples

If you’re building web applications with interactive maps, the HERE Maps API for JavaScript is your starting point. This API enables you to:

Embed dynamic, customizable maps in your web apps.
Add overlays, markers, and interactive layers.
Integrate routing, geocoding, and other HERE Location Services seamlessly.

Our Tech Writer team has curated Vanilla JavaScript examples that are simple to review and implement. Each example includes a live map preview and code block to help you get started quickly.

Core service cheat sheet

Here is your quick reference to the services and products available. This list is designed to help developers and tech enthusiasts navigate HERE’s evolving portfolio.

Service	Description	Current State & Docs
Routing API	Flexible API that returns information on how to get from one point to another, supports starting times, traffic, truck restrictions, and more.	Routing v8 is the latest version; v7 is deprecated. Many previously separate APIs (Truck Routing, Isoline, Toll Costs, etc.) are now features of Routing v8.
Truck Routing	Deliver the most appropriate truck routes using truck-specific attributes, while considering physical and legal restrictions.	Part of Routing v8. Includes advanced truck attributes and no-through restrictions.
Matrix Routing API	Calculate routes through one or more locations, showing distances and/or ETAs from up to 10,000 origins and destinations.	Now Matrix Routing API v8.
Isoline Routing API	See areas of reach from or to a given spot based on time, distance, or fuel consumption.	Available as Isoline Routing API v8.
Fuel Consumption	Calculate fuel or energy consumption for ICE and EV vehicles based on speed, ascent, descent, and auxiliary loads.	Integrated into Routing v8 with multiple consumption models. For EVs: https://www.here.com/docs/bundle/routing-api-developer-guide-v8/page/concepts/consumption-ev-empirical.html
~~Fleet Telematics API~~	~~Advanced location algorithms for fleet management (geofencing, route matching, toll costs).~~	~~Deprecated. Capabilities moved to Routing v8, Geofencing API, Route Matching API.~~
Geofencing API	Monitor assets entering or leaving a geographic area.	Still available as standalone API.
Custom Locations / Routes / Advanced Data Sets Consolidated under Map Attributes API	Manage custom POIs, routes, and map attributes.	Consolidated under Map Attributes API.
Route Matching API	Match GPS traces to HERE road network for most probable routes.	Available as Route Matching API v8.
Toll Costs	Calculate toll costs for any route, optimize based on toll and vehicle costs.	Integrated into Routing v8.
Waypoints Sequence API	Optimize waypoint order based on time, distance, or commercial value.	Available as Waypoints Sequence API v8.
HERE Batch API v7	Enables you to efficiently process large‑scale geocoding, reverse‑geocoding, and ID‑lookup jobs by handling thousands to hundreds of thousands of records in one batch, with the performance optimized for big data sets.
Traffic API	Delivers real‑time traffic flow and incident data, including speeds, jam factors, road‑segment geometry, and detailed incident attributes, based on spatial queries.
There are Traffic Vector Tile and Traffic Raster Tile services as well	Display real-time traffic flow and incident information on a map using map tiles in vector or raster format.
HERE Off-Street Parking	Display off-street parking facilities on the map with information about opening times, height restrictions, prices and real-time parking availability.
HERE On-Street Parking	A service providing dynamic information about the likelihood of finding an available parking spot on the street (unattended curb-side parking), and applicable parking restrictions with price information.

I hope this cheat sheet helps you quickly find the HERE services and resources you need. It is a handy reference for developers and anyone curious about what HERE offers and how it works. I will be keeping this in my bookmarks - and you might want to do the same.

Happy coding!
