Last-Mile Navigation

Let's create a walking route to our favourite swimming spot!

Here you can see the route of our last-mile journey mapped precisely.

Next, we add the route as a byway, to supplement the navigation information already present for main roads & routes. We POST a request to the last-mile navigation API

With a successful response, the system will now be able to incorporate our route when navigating users. Using the predefined road & path networks to reach the beginning of our last-mile instructions and then seamlessly through the final piece of their journey using the route we defined.
