What's New

This release includes new and updated datasets and bundles, H3 Hex updates, street dataset update and bug fixes.

Note: As data is enriched with the quarterly refreshes, the size of the datasets could grow thereby increasing memory requirements. Continuous housekeeping of your databases and managing/deleting unused data is highly recommended for optimal performance.

For more information, see Geo Addressing Coverage.

Ability to return the H3 Hex grid ID

H3 is a geospatial indexing system that partitions the world into hexagonal cells. In this release we have added support of H3 Hex grid ID, which will return in custom fields with key “H3HEX”, after enabling the custom preference customPreferences: {"RETURN_H3HEX":"true"}

Below are the Request Response for the above implementation:
