Snap to Roads
The Roads API takes up to 100 GPS points collected along a route, and returns a similar set of data, with the points snapped to the most likely roads the vehicle was traveling along. Optionally, you can request that the points be interpolated, resulting in a path that smoothly follows the geometry of the road.
Requests
A request to snap to road must be sent via HTTPS, and takes the following form:
https://roads.googleapis.com/v1/snapToRoads?parameters&key=YOUR_API_KEY Required parameters
-
path
The path to be snapped. The path parameter accepts a list of latitude/longitude pairs. Latitude and longitude values should be separated by commas. Coordinates should be separated by the pipe character: "|". For example:
path=60.170880,24.942795|60.170879,24.942796|60.170877,24.942796.Note: The snapping algorithm works best for points that are not too far apart. If you observe odd snapping behavior, try creating paths that have points closer together. To ensure the best snap-to-road quality, you should aim to provide paths on which consecutive pairs of points are within 300m of each other. This will also help in handling any isolated, long jumps between consecutive points caused by GPS signal loss, or noise.
Optional parameters
-
interpolate
Whether to interpolate a path to include all points forming the full road-geometry. When true, additional interpolated points will also be returned, resulting in a path that smoothly follows the geometry of the road, even around corners and through tunnels. Interpolated paths will most likely contain more points than the original path. Defaults to
false.

Examples
The following request will snap the specified points to the road geometry. This particular set of data follows a circular road; setting interpolate=true ensure that the returned geometry will match the curvature of the road. With interpolate=false, the snapped path will still follow the road, but the resulting polyline will not be as smooth.

SnappedPoint
| Field | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| required | LatitudeLongitudeLiteral | See LatitudeLongitudeLiteral for more information. |
| required | string | A unique identifier for a place. All place IDs returned by the Roads API correspond to road segments. |
| optional | number | An integer that indicates the corresponding value in the original request. Each value in the request should map to a snapped value in the response. However, if you've set interpolate=true, then it's possible that the response will contain more coordinates than the request. Interpolated values will not have an |
