This increases customer loyalty and directly supports your sales strategies.
Route optimization and live tracking for logistics
In logistics, every minute counts. With our Google Maps based applications, you can not only optimize routes, but also track them in real time. This makes it possible to calculate precise arrival times and manage transport flows efficiently. Our solutions integrate the Google Maps Routes and Places APIs to offer alternative routes based on real-time traffic information. This way, you can make sure deliveries arrive on time and disruptions are detected early.
Location-based marketing campaigns
Use the flexibility of Google Maps for creative marketing strategies. Our location-based campaigns, from virtual scavenger hunts to interactive events, can be designed playfully and capture the attention of your target group. By actively involving your customers and offering them a dynamic experience, you increase not only brand awareness but also customer loyalty. These innovative campaigns are ideal for brand activations, product trials or promotional events.
Live tracking and arrival time predictions
Improve your service with precise arrival time predictions and live tracking. This is invaluable especially in logistics and delivery services. We integrate advanced Google Maps APIs that draw on current traffic data and other influencing factors to make accurate predictions. This lets you keep your customers informed in real time and improve your service offering, a real competitive advantage.

Our Google Maps applications are suitable for companies of every size. From small retailers to multinational corporations, our solutions are scalable, secure and adaptable. We implement robust security standards that protect your data while the application grows with your business. This keeps your digital infrastructure flexible and future-proof.
Route planning for field sales and service teams
Optimize the daily routes of your field sales and service teams with our route planning software. Based on the Google Maps APIs, we create tailor-made solutions that suggest efficient, time-saving routes, avoid traffic jams and adjust planning dynamically. This increases productivity while reducing operating costs through shorter travel times.
Custom map applications for real estate and construction projects
Visualize construction projects, property locations and development plans with custom map applications. Our solutions make it possible to present plans interactively and display key information such as construction progress, plot sizes and transport connections directly on the map. This gives potential investors, construction partners and prospects a comprehensive overview and enables well-founded decisions.
Geocoding and address validation
Our Google Maps based geocoding solutions enable accurate address validation and geolocation. With this technology, you can convert addresses into geographic coordinates and vice versa, which is particularly helpful when automating delivery processes and precisely mapping customer locations. This significantly improves the reliability and efficiency of your business processes.
Map-based data visualization
Use interactive maps to visualize company data. With our custom Google Maps solutions, large amounts of data can be presented in easy-to-understand map formats, whether for analyzing sales territories, customer behavior or location data.

Further reading on Google Maps
History of Google Maps
Google Maps is a browser-based mapping service by Google, released in February 2005. In addition to street maps, Google Maps also offers satellite imagery and aerial photos of the entire surface of the Earth. The service became particularly popular thanks to its exceptionally good route planning feature. Features such as Street View, which provides three-dimensional panoramic views of selected locations, also contributed to its popularity. In web development, Google Maps is frequently used for location descriptions, store and branch finders, and custom map applications. This is made possible by an extremely flexible and well-documented API.
Google Maps API and pricing
In a commercial context, Google Maps may only be used via the Google Maps API. Only for private use may static maps be embedded in websites or applications. Using the API can potentially incur fees, which depend on the number of API requests. For most use cases, the usage quotas granted by Google are so generous that effectively no costs arise. Commercial map applications made available to a broad audience, or applications with particularly high volumes of API requests, on the other hand, have to pay for the use of the Google Maps API. In mid-2018, Google changed its pricing model. Every API key and every property registered in Google's API console that accesses the Google Maps API is credited with 200 US dollars per month. Only when this credit, which still comfortably covers many use cases, is exceeded do further costs arise for using the Google Maps API.
Google Maps Platform
The Google Maps Platform is aimed specifically at companies and web agencies building sophisticated map applications with Google Maps. The Google Maps Platform bundles the three products Maps, Routes and Places.
Maps
Maps offers the classic embedding and display of map services and Street View imagery in combination with the Google Maps API. Through the interface, you can build your own map services with the same technical infrastructure Google uses for its own Google Maps service. Maps can, for example, be flexibly extended with markers, outlines and lines. All map colors can also be customized, so every map can be styled to match applicable corporate design guidelines.
Routes
Building on the Maps product, map applications can be extended with Routes to display or process routing information. Obvious use cases include displaying traffic information and driving directions. But Routes can do much more: with map data from over 200 countries worldwide, Google Maps with Routes can reliably determine the shortest route from A to B, combined with real-time traffic information. Especially for companies in the logistics sector, Routes makes it possible to build map applications that actively help reduce costs.
Places
Places is the third product building block of the Google Maps Platform and offers comprehensive information on important and relevant locations (POI). With Places, you can access all location information for every POI listed in Google Maps. But Places can do much more: through geocoding, address data can be converted into geographic position coordinates. This is relevant when displaying locations and position markers on maps. Places can also determine the exact location of users and their devices.
More Google Maps features
Marker clustering
Especially in Google Maps applications for store and branch finders, countless location markers can overlap and severely impair the user experience. Marker clustering groups large numbers of location markers into clusters. The individual clusters are usually clickable and take the user to a closer zoom level. Depending on the number of markers, new clusters can be formed, or where enough space has become available, the regular location markers become visible again.
