The importance of integrating real-time mapping and the Destination API into digital wayfinding software for efficient navigation
ViaDirect is constantly looking to add features to its wayfinding solutions that will greatly enhance your visitors’ customer experience.
Among these key features, the integration of real-time mapping and the Destination API is particularly crucial.
Real-time mapping for precise, up-to-date navigation
Real-time mapping technology has revolutionized the way we travel, reducing navigation errors and optimizing journeys.
It provides users with precise information on their current position and the routes they need to take to reach their destination. It provides up-to-date information by detecting the fastest routes and potential changes in position.
The Destination API: a complementary feature for an enriched navigation experience
What is the role of a destination API? The Application Programming Interface integrates location and route data into digital wayfinding solutions. It offers advanced functions such as
Itinerary personalization: thanks to the Destination API, wayfinding solutions can provide personalized itineraries based on users’ specific needs and preferences. The API can also be used to provide information directly associated with the destination, such as photos, opening hours, etc.
Step-by-step navigation: by integrating the Destination API, wayfinding software can provide precise, detailed directions to a specific destination. Users benefit from a smooth navigation experience, with instructions for each stage of the journey and its duration.
Our latest projects with Destination API implementation
Two of our customers located on the outskirts of Paris, Les 3 fontaines and Les 4 temps shopping centers, recently developed our Destination API solution to improve the implementation of their maps and associated information in their ViaDirect wayfinding software.
By combining these tools, we can create more efficient, convenient and personalized navigation experiences for visitors looking for effective wayfinding. Users quickly find their way around, leaving their uncertainties behind for a better overall experience.
Now it’s your turn to benefit from our real-time map to satisfy your visitors and customers, so let’s make an appointment.
