Coordinates in a static distance (milestones)

Hi,

Is there an option to get milestones on route in a specific requested distance? Lets say that I want to get a coordinate every 25 meters on a route with total distance of 1 kilometer.

Currently, the API return a list of coordinates according to it’s own logic? How does it currently decide what will be the distance between coordinates or how many to show on the path?

Thx,
Yohay

Hi Yohay,

the coordinates basically depict the shortest path from A to B. If you want to enrich the route with milestones every X amount of meters/kilometers, you could do this in a postprocessing step.
