The Last Meter Visualisation API returns, for one of your deliveries, a ready-to-render picture of the last meters of the delivery: where the driver parked, the entrance that was used, the walking path between them, an optional intermediate waypoint, and the building the entrance belongs to. You request it for a single delivery stop — by giving the entrance and parking address identifiers (they may be the same id, or two different ids) — and get back:
  • a GeoJSON FeatureCollection you can drop straight onto a MapLibre or Mapbox map — the styling hints (colours, line widths, dashes) map 1:1 to map layer styles, and
  • optionally a rendered PNG image (raster), so you can show a thumbnail without running a map renderer yourself — either transparent (to overlay on your own map) or on a street basemap.

​
When to use it

  • Plot the last-meter geometry of a delivery in your own dashboard or driver app.
  • Embed a small map thumbnail of a stop in an email, report or ticket.
  • Give dispatchers a quick visual of where exactly a parcel was delivered.

​
What you get

ElementDescription
EntranceThe detected door / delivery point for the address.
ParkingWhere the driver parked the vehicle.
WaypointAn optional point along the walking route.
Walking pathA dashed line from parking to entrance.
BuildingThe building footprint the entrance belongs to (when available).
All coordinates are returned in EPSG:4326 (WGS84 longitude/latitude).

Authentication

Every request is authenticated with your x-api-key. The key identifies your account, so you only ever receive your own data — there is no account or customer parameter in the request. Your key and the base URL are provided by your truemetrics contact.
The identifiers you pass are the same address identifiers you send to truemetrics as metadata (your id_address / merge id). The entrance and parking may use different identifiers — pass each to its own parameter (identifier_entrance / identifier_parking).
