Isochrones (Reachable Range)¶
Free
Starter
Standard
Professional
Isochrones describe the area you can reach from a starting point, taking into account mode of travel and a constraint on either time or distance. This lets you quickly get an idea of mobility in an area, find out what is reachable within a given routing distance (ex: to look for nearby gas or changing), and inform planning.
Endpoint: https://api.stadiamaps.com/isochrone/v1
Example Code¶
Installation Instructions
The Stadia Maps JavaScript/TypeScript SDK is available for any package manager that supports the npm registry.
npm install @stadiamaps/api
yarn add @stadiamaps/api
bun add @stadiamaps/api
import { RoutingApi, Configuration, IsochroneRequest } from '@stadiamaps/api';
// If you are writing for a backend application or can't use domain-based auth,
// then you'll need to add your API key like so:
//
// const config = new Configuration({ apiKey: "YOUR-API-KEY" }); (1)
// You can also use our EU endpoint to keep traffic within the EU using the basePath option:
// const config = new Configuration({ basePath: "https://api-eu.stadiamaps.com" });
// const api = new RoutingApi(config);
const api = new RoutingApi();
const req: IsochroneRequest = {
id: "isochrone",
locations: [
{
lat: 59.436884,
lon: 24.742595
}
],
costing: "pedestrian",
contours: [
{
time: 5,
color: "aabbcc"
}
],
polygons: true
};
const res = await api.isochrone({ isochroneRequest: req });

Installation Instructions
The Stadia Maps Python SDK is available through any package manager that supports PyPi.
pip install stadiamaps
poetry add stadiamaps
import os
import stadiamaps
from stadiamaps.rest import ApiException
# You can also use our EU endpoint to keep traffic within the EU like so:
# configuration = stadiamaps.Configuration(host="https://api-eu.stadiamaps.com")
configuration = stadiamaps.Configuration()
# Configure API key authentication (ex: via environment variable). (1)
configuration.api_key['ApiKeyAuth'] = os.environ["API_KEY"]
with stadiamaps.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
# Create an instance of the API class
api_instance = stadiamaps.RoutingApi(api_client)
try:
req = stadiamaps.IsochroneRequest(
id="isochrone",
locations=[{"lat": 40.042072, "lon": -76.306572}],
costing=stadiamaps.IsochroneCostingModel.PEDESTRIAN,
contours=[
stadiamaps.Contour(time=5, color="aabbcc")
],
polygons=True,
)
res = api_instance.isochrone(req)
except ApiException as e:
# Add your error handling here
print("Exception when calling the Stadia Maps API: %s\n" % e)

Installation Instructions
Our Swift SDK is distributed using the Swift Package Manager (SPM).
Apple's documentation
shows how to add a Swift Package dependency to your Xcode project.
On the Add Package screen, you can find our package by its repository URL: https://github.com/stadiamaps/stadiamaps-api-swift
.
import StadiaMaps
// This setup code can go anywhere before you actually make an API call (typically in your app init)
func setupStadiaMapsAPI() {
// Set your API key (1)
StadiaMapsAPI.customHeaders = ["Authorization": "Stadia-Auth YOUR-API-KEY"]
// Optionally use our EU endpoint to keep traffic within the EU
// StadiaMapsAPI.basePath = "https://api-eu.stadiamaps.com"
}
// This function demonstrates how to call the Stadia Maps API.
// If you have not yet adopted async/await in your Swift codebase, you can use the Task API
// to call async functions in a non-async context: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swift/task.
func myFunction() async throws {
let req = IsochroneRequest(
id: "isochrone",
locations: [Coordinate(lat: 40.042072, lon: -76.306572)],
costing: .pedestrian,
contours: [Contour(time: 5, color: "aabbcc")],
polygons: true
)
let res = try await RoutingAPI.isochrone(isochroneRequest: req)
// Do something with the response...
print(res)
}

Installation Instructions
Composer
To install the package via Composer,
add stadiamaps/stadiamaps-api-php

require_once('/path/to/OpenAPIClient-php/vendor/autoload.php');
<?php
// use or require, depending on your installation method.
// Configure API key authorization (replace with your Stadia Maps API key) (1)
$config = OpenAPI\Client\Configuration::getDefaultConfiguration()->setApiKey('api_key', 'YOUR-API-KEY');
// You can also use our EU endpoint to keep traffic within the EU using setHost:
// $config = Configuration::getDefaultConfiguration()->setApiKey('api_key', 'YOUR-API-KEY')->setHost('https://api-eu.stadiamaps.com');
$apiInstance = new OpenAPI\Client\Api\RoutingApi(
new GuzzleHttp\Client(),
$config
);
try {
$req = (new IsochroneRequest())
->setId('kesklinn')
->setLocations([(new Coordinate())->setLat(59.436884)->setLon(24.742595)])
->setCosting(CostingModel::PEDESTRIAN)
->setContours([(new Contour())->setTime(5)->setColor('aabbcc')])
->setPolygons(true);
$result = $apiInstance->isochrone($req);
} catch (Exception $e) {
// Add your error handling here
echo 'Exception when calling the Stadia Maps API: ', $e->getMessage(), PHP_EOL;

Example Response¶
A successful response will be a GeoJSON
FeatureCollection
object,
which can be rendered on a map (libraries like Leaflet and MapLibre can easily render a GeoJSON layer)
or processed with your favorite software or libraries.
The collection will include one feature per contour requested.
