Api usage policy

We are in principle happy for our demo server to be queried from external users. We don't give any guarantees though and expect anyone to adhere to the following rules:

• Excessive use (e.g. distance tables) is not allowed.
• Clearly display appropriate license attribution and the source of your routes.
• Valid User-Agent identifying application. Faking another app's User-Agent WILL get you blocked.
• If known, a valid HTTP Referer. See Wikipedia for an explanation.

API Implementation

We expect all external users to implement the API as efficiently as possible. The following is a must:

• the coordinate hinting mechanism needs to be implemented.
• The route geometry must be queried by &geomformat=cmp, which is an implementation of Googles Polyline Algorithm Format.

Distance Tables

Distance table computation is not allowed. It is regarded as excessive usage.

Server name

The server is reachable on host router.project-osrm.org

Changes to this policy

This policy may change at any time subject to the needs and constraints of the project. Commercial services, or those that seek donations, should be especially aware that access may be withdrawn at any point: you may no longer be able to serve your paying customers if access is withdrawn.
