openrouteservice VS OpenLayers3

If you don't need many calls, this is great: https://openrouteservice.org/

the data for the routing are from https://openrouteservice.org/ to use this in o.map you have to get an api key from openrouteservice and insert it into o.map.

I use Open Route Service https://openrouteservice.org/ to plot motorcycling routes - it seems to do what you are requesting - with gpx, kml, json exports

openstreetmap features a routing engine as well, available from several locations on the internet. You might want to try out something like https://openrouteservice.org/ or do a web search for "openstreetmap routig" to find other alternatives.

https://openrouteservice.org/ try their api

ORS has isochrone maps. You can easily check travel times from Prenzlauer Berg there.

For anyone else, there is a free api that can do this: https://openrouteservice.org/

I’m happy to tell you it is 😊 try out https://openrouteservice.org/

data came from open source data provider https://openrouteservice.org/

Data source: openrouteservice.org

You probably know this, but in Google Maps at least, you can use browser zoom (ctrl/cmd +/-) to change the size of labels without zooming into the actual map.

Speaking of maps, I got to work a fun zoom project a few years ago: https://map.fieldmuseum.org/

We used https://openlayers.org/ and thought long and hard about how to best handle zooming and variable levels of information density & visual hierarchy. If you zoom all the way out, we just highlight where the building is relative to the surroundings. As you start to zoom in, we start to highlight major exhibitions and entrances. Then as you zoom in more, we start showing recommended paths, smaller exhibitions, etc. The label sizes try to scale up and down at each level, smoothly, in order to balance readability and density.

Eventually you can reach the max zoom level and the labels will just grow bigger and bigger, but the SVGs dynamically shrink so they remain pictograms and not just contextless-lines.

Then if you keep going, you eventually find microscopic easter eggs :)

The code is pretty jank (and abandoned), but it's FOSS vanilla JS/HTML/CSS, and the only dependency is on OpenLayers: https://github.com/arcataroger/openlayers_indoor_map

In order to display the GeoJSON features on a map, we will use OpenLayers, which is a very powerful open-source mapping library that is also very simple to use.

OpenLayers is available via the ol npm package, offering developers a powerful toolkit for creating sophisticated maps. Here is a JavaScript implementation that utilizes OpenLayers to showcase a map:

For web maps I'd strongly recommend using OpenLayers. While it's less convenient to get started with compared to the alternatives it's also much more feature-complete and you'll likely hit a ceiling in terms of functionality much later than you would with the others.
