Geo Distance API

healthy 3,497 Subscribers

Great-circle (as-the-crow-flies) navigation maths between latitude/longitude points. The distance endpoint returns the straight-line distance in metres, kilometres, miles and nautical miles, plus the initial and final compass bearing and the nearest 16-point compass direction. The destination endpoint computes where you end up from a start point, a bearing and a distance, and the midpoint endpoint finds the great-circle midpoint between two points. Perfect for proximity and radius search, geofencing, flight and shipping estimates, "distance from me" features and mapping. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. These are straight-line distances on a spherical earth, not road routes. Live, nothing stored. 4 endpoints. Distinct from road routing, GeoJSON geometry measurement and coordinate-format conversion.

Geo Distance API

A fast, fully-local great-circle geospatial toolkit: compute the haversine distance between two coordinates (in km, m, miles or nautical miles), the initial and final compass bearing, the geographic midpoint, the destination point reached from an origin on a bearing at a given distance, and a bounding box around a center for a radius. Pure server-side compute, no third-party upstream, so responses are instant and always available. Ideal for logistics, delivery and fleet apps, store locators, real-estate search, travel and mapping tools.

Routing API

Driving routes with distance, duration and geometry, distance/duration matrices for up to 25 points, and nearest-road snapping — on the global OpenStreetMap road network. Coordinates are simple lat,lon pairs.

Maidenhead Locator API

Convert between latitude/longitude and the Maidenhead Locator System — the grid-square "QTH locator" (like JN58td or IO91wm) used by amateur radio, APRS and contesting to describe a position compactly. The encode endpoint turns a latitude and longitude into a locator at 4-, 6-, 8- or 10-character precision. The decode endpoint turns a locator back into the centre coordinates, the south-west corner and the size of the grid square. The distance endpoint gives the great-circle distance (kilometres and miles) and bearing between the centres of two locators — the classic "how far and which way is that station". Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for amateur-radio and APRS tools, contest logging, antenna aiming, and grid-based mapping. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is the Maidenhead system; for Plus Codes, MGRS, UTM and DMS use a geo-convert API and for precise geodesic distance use a geodesy API.

Gene Expression API

Functional-genomics experiments as an API — powered by NCBI GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus), the largest public repository of gene-expression data. GEO archives expression series and curated datasets from microarray and high-throughput-sequencing experiments across every organism. Search experiments by keyword and optionally by organism, and look up any series or dataset to get its metadata: title, summary, assay type (expression profiling by array or by sequencing), organism, number of samples, platform and the publication behind it. From β-cell stress studies to cancer transcriptomics across human and mouse, it turns the GEO archive into a simple search-and-fetch API for transcriptomics, bioinformatics and research-data discovery. A gene-expression / functional-genomics dataset repository — distinct from sequence (ENA), variant (ClinVar, dbVar), structure (PDB) and ontology databases. Open data from NCBI GEO (public domain).
