HERE has officially deprecated and shut down its Maps Tile API, directly affecting PTV xServer and PTV xServer internet users who rely on it for satellite imagery. To maintain seamless access to high-resolution map tiles, users must transition to one of the following alternatives:
-
HERE Raster Tile API v3 – Users can migrate to HERE’s latest Raster Tile API v3. This transition requires obtaining a new HERE API key, which can be requested from PTV Order Management. See more information in the migration guide form Here.
-
PTV Developer Raster Maps API – Alternatively, users can switch to the PTV Developer Raster Maps API.
The advantage of migrating to PTV Developer is that PTV can make necessary adjustments to the access to Here satellite images without requiring any action from the customer.
This migration necessitates a PTV Developer API key, which can be obtained by registering on the PTV Developer website.-
Create a PTV Developer account and obtain an API token.
-
Update your contract if you plan to use the token in production.
- Integrate the satellite map tiles as png image like shown in our Code Samples
