Introduction to the HERE Traffic Vector Tile API

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 follows the Vector Tile Specification, with each tile encoded using Protobuf.

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

• Requesting only incident events.
• Requesting only flow events.
• Requesting both incident and flow events.
