What is TomTom's Parking API?
Parking is the process of finding, evaluating, and paying for a place to leave a vehicle, whether at the curb (on-street) or in a dedicated facility such as a garage or lot (off-street). The Parking API brings together TomTom's on-street and off-street parking services into a single offering, helping developers build applications around the full parking journey.
