Is it possible to query WAZE from a desktop web app to get the Distance and Travel Time from point A to point B?
We are developing an app for scheduling deliveries and the User wants to use Waze to get this information. We will be Adding addresses to a “Route” and want Waze to provide the Distance and Travel Time between two given points.
Can I use a URL query to get this information?
The Waze Livemap allows you to enter Point A and Point B to get distance and time. The biggest issue is that it does not use Waze places or addresses for the search, it uses Google places. The accuracy will be slightly off for this reason but should be pretty close for the most part.
So I cannot do it thru a URL giving two addresses? I don’t want to see the live map. I just want to get the info to put into my program.
That I don’t know, someone much smarter than me will have to chime in.
Here is a link we can send to MapQuest to get the miles and minutes.
“https://www.mapquest.com/directions/from/us/GA/Atlanta/{zip-from}/{address-from}/to/us/NC/Charlotte/{zip-to}/{address-to}”
We are making a web request using the above URL and parsing the html that is provided by the web request to get the miles and minutes.
Wondering if you can do something like this with Waze?
Nothing that I have ever seen or heard of. Pretty much Livemap or App if you want to get route timing.
