Geospatial Endpoint Service
Note
Bing Maps for Enterprise service retirement
Bing Maps for Enterprise is deprecated and will be retired. Free (Basic) account customers can continue to use Bing Maps for Enterprise services until June 30th, 2025. Enterprise account customers can continue to use Bing Maps for Enterprise services until June 30th, 2028. To avoid service disruptions, all implementations using Bing Maps for Enterprise REST APIs and SDKs will need to be updated to use Azure Maps by the retirement date that applies to your Bing Maps for Enterprise account type.
Azure Maps is Microsoft's next-generation maps and geospatial services for developers. Azure Maps has many of the same features as Bing Maps for Enterprise, and more. To get started with Azure Maps, create a free Azure subscription and an Azure Maps account. For more information about azure Maps, see Azure Maps Documentation. For migration guidance, see Bing Maps Migration Overview.
The Geospatial Endpoint Service is a REST service that provides information about Geospatial Platform services for the language and geographical region you specify. The service information includes available service endpoints and language support for these endpoints. Disputed geographical areas and embargoed countries or regions that do not have any service support are also identified.
This documentation does not explain how to use the service endpoints returned in the response.
Request URLs
Use the following URLs to make a Geospatial Endpoint Service request. Options are provided for requests with and without specific geographical coordinates.
Get the service information for the language and region specified.
http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/V1/GeospatialEndpoint/language/userRegion?key={BingMapsKey}
Get the service information for the language, region and location coordinates specified.
The latitude and longitude coordinates are reverse-geocoded to determine the location. If this location corresponds to a non-disputed country or region, then this location overrides the userRegion value in the request. However, if the coordinates are in a disputed country or region, then the userRegion in the request is used. For example, if the coordinates represent a disputed area along the border of India and China, and userRegion is set to IN (India) in the request and the language is set to hi-in (Hindi), then IN services for Hindi are returned. In the same example, if the userRegion is set to CN (China) and the language is set to zh-hans (Simplified Chinese), then CN services for Simplified Chinese are returned in the response.
http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/V1/GeospatialEndpoint/language/userRegion/latitude,longitude?key={BingMapsKey}
Parameters
| Parameter | Alias | Description | Values |
|---|---|---|---|
| language | The preferred language. | An IETF language code, that includes the language and region code subtags, such as en-us or zh-hans. Example: en-us This code represents English as it is spoken in the United States. Example: zh-hans This code represents Simplified Chinese. |
|
| userRegion | A country or region. | An ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 region code, such as US, IN, and CN. Example: US This code represents the United States. |
|
| latitude, longitude | A location on the Earth. These coordinates are reverse-geocoded to determine the country or region. If this location is in a disputed area, then the userRegion parameter value is used to determine the corresponding region. |
The latitude and longitude of the user’s location in degrees. Example: 33.977531,75.726013 |
|
| output | o | Optional. The output format for the response. | One of the following values: - json [default] - xml Example: o=xml |
| key | Your Bing Maps Key. | The GUID value that represents a Bing Maps Key. |
Response
The response returns the following information:
Whether this is a politically disputed area, such as an area claimed by more than one country/region.
Whether services are available in the user’s region.
A list of available geospatial services including endpoints and language support for each service.
Using the Endpoints with Parameters
It is important to note that the endpoints returned in the response are not typically URLs that you can execute. They give the base URL to which you can add parameters, such as a quad key for an image, route waypoints or an address to geocode. This documentation does not cover the parameters specific to each service.
For example, a common endpoint for geocoding is dev.virtualearth.net\REST\v1\Locations. However, this URL does not return any results without adding parameters. The following example shows how to geocode an address by providing address information and a Bing Maps Key.
http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Locations?q=1%20Microsoft%20Way%20Redmond%20WA%2098052&o=xml&key=YourBingMapsKey
Response Fields
The following example shows the general structure for the JSON response. You can also request an XML response. Example requests and JSON and XML responses are provided in the Examples section.

General Fields
| JSON | XML | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| isDisputedArea | IsDisputedArea | Boolean | Specifies if this area in the request is claimed by more than one country/region. For example, many areas along the border of India and China are disputed areas. Even though an area is disputed area, it may still be supported by Geospatial Platform services. |
| isSupported | IsSupported | Boolean | Specifies if Geospatial Platform services are available in the country or region. Microsoft does not support services in embargoed areas. For example, if you request Geospatial Platform Service information for Cuba (CU), isSupported is set to true, and no service information is returned. |
| ur (user region) | UR (user region) | string | The country or region that was used to determine service support. If you specified a latitude and longitude in the request that is in a non-disputed country or region, this country or region is returned in the response. Please see the section Region Localities below for more details on the User Region Codes and Culture Codes. |
| services | Services | array | Information for each geospatial service that is available in the country or region and language specified in the request. See the Service Fields table for the information provided for each service. For a list of available services, see Supported Services. |
