Amazon Location Service

Adds maps, geocoding, routing, and device tracking through Amazon Location Service with full SDK examples and authentication setup. The bundle points to the official GitHub repo and includes sample code for web, Android, and iOS so you can embed a working map, test geocoding calls, and exercise routing without guessing which APIs to call.

It embeds MapLibre-compatible map tiles, pulls place searches and reverse-geocode results, generates route requests and returns maneuvers and polyline data, and records location updates for device histories. You can create and evaluate geofences, check enter/exit events, draw markers and polylines, and compute distances and ETA from returned legs. The examples show how to throttle requests, page through search results, and handle rate-limit errors.

The guide shows how to wire AWS SDKs, set up IAM roles or Cognito identity pools, request temporary credentials, and sign calls with SigV4. It explains region and resource ARNs, configures CORS for browser requests, and includes debugging tips for common mistakes like incorrect map style, mismatched region, or missing permissions. Sample snippets run locally with mocked credentials and include tests for offline behavior.

For a delivery app you can use the samples to plot drivers on a single map, compute optimized routes per stop, and trigger geofence alerts when a driver approaches a customer — all without switching between a map provider and a separate geocoding or tracking tool. That saves time during development and avoids bouncing between dashboards when validating end-to-end behavior.
