What map data do you use to calculate distance matrices? Do you use Google Maps?

We do not use Google Maps to calculate distance matrices. Instead, we use OpenStreetMap (OSM), a highly reliable, community-driven platform that offers free and open geographic data. We choose OSM for its excellent price-to-quality ratio, allowing us to provide accurate distance matrices without the higher costs often associated with proprietary services like Google Maps.

Additionally, our service includes traffic data from TomTom, ensuring that the matrices we generate reflect real-time traffic conditions, much like Google’s offerings. This combination of OSM and TomTom allows us to provide accurate, cost-effective solutions for routing and distance calculations, complete with traffic-aware data for enhanced precision in travel time estimates.
