Batch geocoding and polygons for administrative areas with Azure Maps

Julie Kohler joins Scott Hanselman and shows you how to execute batch geocoding calls using Azure Maps as well as how to get the polygon for a administrative area on a map. Batch geocoding enables a developer to pass up to 10k geocoding or reverse geocoding calls in a single call while Azure Maps handles the processing in the background. The polygon feature enables developers to get the boundaries for things like cities, states and postal codes and use these for doing geometry searches or creating geofences.For more information, see:Route Matrix, isochrones, IP lookup, and more added to Azure Maps (blog)Azure Maps overviewAzure Maps docsAzure Maps pricingAzure Maps Functional API reference docsCreate a free account (Azure)

Calculating isochrones in Azure Maps

Julie Kohler joins Scott Hanselman and shows you how you can generate an isochrone using Azure Maps. Isochrones represent the reachable range from a given point using a set of constraints such as fuel, energy or time. These polygons can be combined with a number of features to do things like search for gas stations within a given range or find restaurants within 15 minutes given current traffic conditions.For more information, see:Route Matrix, isochrones, IP lookup, and more added to Azure Maps (blog)Azure Maps overviewAzure Maps docsAzure Maps pricingAzure Maps Functional API reference docsCreate a free account (Azure)

Batch and matrix routing with Azure Maps

Julie Kohler joins Scott Hanselman and shows you how to execute batch routing calls using Azure Maps as well as how to do matrix routing with a given set of origins and destinations. Batch geocoding enables developers to pass up to 1,000 routing queries with a single call while Azure Maps handles the processing in the background. For matrix routing, a developer can pass in a series of origins and destinations and get back the travel times and distances to make important decisions for their route planning for the day.For more information, see:Route Matrix, isochrones, IP lookup, and more added to Azure Maps (blog)Azure Maps overviewAzure Maps docsAzure Maps pricingAzure Maps Functional API reference docsCreate a free account (Azure)
