Urban Mapping Introduces Free Mass Transit Proximity API

February 2nd, 2009

Since everybody loves free (especially in the current economic climate), we decided to offer more free products. Today we’re announcing the Free Mass Transit Proximity API–this product was announced last November, and it enables developers to use location in (more) interesting ways: associate ad address with subway/bus/train station name, distance and other attributes. Or open your mobile phone and ping our API to tell you the closest train station to your location.

You can register as a developer, read more about the Mass Transit Proximity API and sign up for a key at our developer portal.
