EMBEDEARTH / SEARCH API

Port Search API

Search ports and terminals alongside roads, rail, warehouses, industrial areas, waterways, and freight infrastructure.

SEARCH WORKFLOW

From intent to results that remain useful in maps, routes, and spatial analysis.

core search

Ports Search API Built for Geographic Queries

Use EDK as a port API for radius search, bounding boxes, polygons, viewports, and named places. Return coordinates, geometry, metadata, and map-ready results in one response. Developers can search ports across a neighborhood or an entire region without maintaining a separate geospatial index.

routing

Search Ports by Travel Time, Detour, or Route

Turn the road, walking, or cycling network into a filter for ports. Search by drive time, walking time, detour threshold, or route corridor instead of a circular radius. A route-aware port API can answer which locations are practically reachable, not merely geographically close.

developers

Build Ports Products with the EDK API and SDK

Call port API from a backend, render results with the SDK, process large jobs through the CLI, or expose the same geography to agents through MCP. GeoJSON, routes, map layers, tiles, and Compute all work from the same EDK geographic model.

tiles

Render Large Ports Layers without Giant GeoJSON Files

Large ports datasets should not require one oversized GeoJSON download. Serve port map API as vector tiles, request only the current zoom and viewport, and keep feature properties available for interaction. This is useful when the product has to move smoothly from street detail to regional context.

maps

Turn Port Map Api into an Interactive EDK Layer

Put ports on a map without maintaining a separate visualization index. EDK can return map-ready geometry, update results as the viewport changes, and combine the main layer with warehouses, rail, or custom data. Styling remains under the application’s control.

use cases

Ports Use Cases from Search to Analysis

Build ports workflows for mobility apps, supply-chain teams, travel products, network planners, and field operations. Combine route-aware search with warehouses and rail to analyze practical connectivity instead of treating transport infrastructure as isolated locations.

corridor

Analyze Ports Along Corridors and Routes

Create a buffer around a road, rail line, pipeline, river, or planned route and search only within that corridor. For ports, corridor queries are useful for port-to-warehouse and port-to-highway access, infrastructure screening, logistics, or field work. EDK can return the matching features and the geometry needed to map or score the corridor.

compute

Compute Logistics Density Around Terminals

Use EDK Compute for logistics density around terminals. Run nearest, distance, count-within, buffer, containment, intersection, density, or spatial joins directly against ports. Return a score, geometry, ranked list, or map layer without copying the dataset into a separate GIS database first.
