Radar

Location infrastructure platform for geofences, beacons, trips, addresses, places, and address autocomplete.

Focused on mobile and field apps that create beacons and geofences, start trip tracking, and autocomplete addresses with proximity bias.

Example Use Cases

These are the Radar actions Snow can use when building apps with you. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these on its own.

Autocomplete Address or Place

Tool to autocomplete partial addresses and place names based on relevance and proximity. Use after a user inputs a partial address/place to get suggestions, optionally biased by location.

Create Beacon
