API Features


  • Rich and Up-to-date maps

    Gothere maps contain the information most valuable to your users. Localised points of interests in our maps include bus stops, car parks, postal codes, even ERP gantry locations and rates. We update our maps all the time to ensure that they are as accurate as possible.

  • Public transport and driving directions

    With our comprehensive coverage of the Singapore public transport network, we can provide with access to fast and accurate multi-modal public transport directions. Our driving directions come with enhanced routing features such as expressway and ERP avoidance, and also provides with information such as real-time ERP cost, and taxi fare estimation.

  • Address Geocoding and reverse geocoding

    Coordinate of any address in Singapore can be found and be placed on the map. The nearest address point to any set of coordinates can also be found.

  • Search nearby amenities

    Get information on the amenities around a certain location. Amenities include supermarkets, bank branches, ATMs, clinics, schools, train stations, post offices and petrol kiosks.

  • Static Maps API

    The Static Maps API creates map images that can be used in an <img> tag without needing any Javascript. You may add markers and even draw routes to be displayed on the map image.

Featured example: What's around me

What's around me is a simple example that uses the Gothere API to display a list of nearby amenities on the map. The site makes use of Gothere's maps and data to help users determine the points of interest around a location that they specify. Learn more »
