Map Matching API

The Mapbox Map Matching API allows you to take recorded traces, such as the data from a GPS unit or phone, and snap them to the OpenStreetMap road and path network. This produces clean paths that can be displayed on a map or used for other analysis.

A sample Map Matching API request looks like:

The Map Matching API has optional parameters that can be used to refine the results of a request.
