This category contains community articles related to Nokia's Location Platform, a suite of programming interfaces that allow you to develop interactive applications with maps and map-related services at their core. Separate APIs are provided for use in mobile devices and for use in web browsers. Mobile devices should use the mobile APIs as these will access locally stored maps (if present), providing a much better and cheaper user experience.

The APIs included in this category are:

• APIs for use in mobile devices (see Maps API support for Nokia devices for more information)
  • Maps API for Qt - Qt/Qt Quick API for accessing locally stored maps
  • Maps API for Java ME - Java ME API for accessing locally cached maps
  • Windows Phone Map control - Window Phone 8 includes control based on Nokia Maps for accessing locally cached maps.
• APIs for use in web browsers:
  • Nokia Maps API - JavaScript API for to access maps from a server
  • Places API for JavaScript - JavaScript API for accessing landmark information
  • REStful Map API - API to access static maps from a server.
  • REStful Places API - API to access places data directly from a server.
