![]() Route calculated: a request for Amazon Location Service to calculate a route (travel time, distance, and geometry) to travel between a departure location and one or more destinations. ![]() For example, a pizza chain’s application could determine that its delivery driver has crossed a geofence that is a half-mile from their customer, and send the customer an alert that their order is about to arrive. Position evaluated: a request for Amazon Location Service to determine the position of a tracked entity in relation to a set of geofences, and to send events to Amazon EventBridge if the tracked entity enters or exits a geofence. Each element requested in a batch call counts as a request. Batch position reads are requests to retrieve multiple locations for one or more tracked entities with timestamps. Position reads: a request to retrieve the location of a tracked entity, for instance to show the location of visitors using a ski resort’s mobile application. Batch position writes are requests to record multiple locations for one or more tracked entities with timestamps. For example, a fitness application can periodically record the location of an athlete during a run by using position write requests. Position writes: a request for Amazon Location Service to record the location of a tracked entity in your account. A “geofence-month” represents storage of a geofence definition for a period of one month in Amazon Location Service. For example, a retail chain could create geofences around their store locations so they can send customers a coupon when they are near a store. A geofence is a geographical boundary defined on a map. Geofence: requests to create, delete, or describe a geofence. Stored result: a request to store and reuse the addresses or latitude and longitude coordinates that are the results of geocoding or reverse-geocoding operations. Position reverse-geocoded: a request to convert latitude and longitude coordinates to a readable street address or place name. Amazon Location Service uses two types of map tiles: raster tiles, which are map images and vector tiles, which represent the geographical features of a small map area.Īddress geocoded: a request to convert a text description of a location, such as a street address, a place ID, or a point of interest, to a set of latitude and longitude coordinates. When your application displays a map, it is showing a collection of map tiles. Map tile: a request to retrieve a piece, or “tile,” of a larger digital map.
