It's easy to integrate the TomTom Maps SDK for Web into web apps built on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — including popular JavaScript frameworks like Angular. But can we put it to work with a C# framework like ASP.NET Core? Yes, and we'll show you how.

Modern web standards allow developers to deliver location-aware features to users based on device GPS or network information. This information could be useful on its own — but, when combined with a mapping service, this information enables many additional interesting features. This tutorial will describe how to build a responsive web application with a point of interest (POI) location search feature using the React web framework and the TomTom Search API.

The TomTom Maps SDK for Web provides great default search results on a map display. But if you want to have more manual control over which markers are displayed and what they look like, use the searchMarkersManager JavaScript snippet provided with the Maps SDK for Web samples. In this article we'll explain what customizations you can make to marker displays and walk through an example using searchMarkersManager, a helpful class that exists in the TomTom Maps SDK Examples code download package.

If you're building a website that needs mapping and location capabilities, the TomTom Maps SDK for Web provides powerful, easy-to-implement traffic, routing, and search capabilities. Even if you've started an app on a different platform, it's easy to migrate to the TomTom Maps SDK. We'll show you how to migrate an existing MapBox GL JS app to use TomTom APIs in just a few minutes.

TomTom Location History API services offer the ability to build applications based on object location histories. The Location History service can potentially be used for managing vehicle fleets, handling optimal taxi pickup locations, and for delivering on-demand services. This article introduces you to some of the concepts behind location history services and provides an overview of the services and endpoints provided by the Location History APIs.

Capturing and displaying complex geographical and statistical information on maps is crucial to many researchers. Once upon a time, you'd have to manually capture location information, and needed specialized software to crunch data and create digital maps. Today, TomTom location APIs and SDKs and a little programming knowledge make sophisticated mapping applications available to anyone. In this article we'll examine five ways mapping can be used to further academic research, highlighting examples in each case that can be made easier with TomTom mapping products.

The TomTom Maps SDK makes adding maps to web apps easy. Angular, the popular web application framework, takes much of the pain out of creating data driven websites. And it's simple to use the Maps SDK for Web with Angular to create data-driven apps.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are increasingly popular, but have specific routing challenges based on range and charging station availability. In a previous article, we discussed what you need to know about TomTom Search and Routing APIs and the new Long Distance EV Routing service to supply routing and charging information to EV owners. Now we’re going to use those APIs and the TomTom Maps SDK for Web to build the app.
