# Migrate Azure Maps Traffic 1.0 APIs
14+
15+
This article provides guidance on migrating the Azure Maps [Traffic v1 service] to other Azure Maps services.
16+
17+
The following table outlines all Traffic service along with their respective migration options.
18+
19+
| Azure Maps Traffic v1.0 | Azure Maps migration option  |
20+
|-------------------------|------------------------------|
21+
| [Get Traffic Flow Segment] | No direct replacement.<br/>Map tiles can be used to visualize traffic flow, but speed and travel time isn't available. |
22+
| [Get Traffic Flow Tile]<br/>- Absolute <br/>- Reduced sensitivity <br/>- Relative <br/>- Relative delay  | [Get Map Tile]<br/>[TilesetID] <br/>- microsoft.traffic.absolute (vector) <br/>- microsoft.traffic.absolute.main (raster) <br/>- microsoft.traffic.relative (vector) <br/>- microsoft.traffic.relative.dark (raster) <br/>- microsoft.traffic.relative.main (raster) <br/>- microsoft.traffic.delay (vector) <br/>- microsoft.traffic.delay.main (raster) <br/>- microsoft.traffic.reduced.main (raster)  |
23+
| [Get Traffic Incident Detail] | [Get Traffic Incident]  |
24+
| [Get Traffic Incident Tile]| [Get Map Tile] <br/>[TilesetID] <br/>- microsoft.traffic.incident (vector)  |
25+
| [Get Traffic Incident Viewport] | No replacement.<br/>Returns the traffic model ID used by Traffic v1 service, but isn't required for the latest traffic or render services. |
26+
27+
## Notable differences
28+
29+
- Unlike the Traffic v1.0 service, the latest Azure Maps [Get Traffic Incident] API and the Render service [Get Map Tile] API don't require a traffic model ID.
30+
31+
- The [Get Traffic Incident] v2025-01-01 input bounding box and response are in the GeoJSON format.
32+
33+
- [Traffic Flow Segment][Get Traffic Flow Segment] v1.0 provides information about vehicle speeds and travel times of the road segment. This information isn't available in the latest version, but the traffic data can be visualized using the Render [Get Map Tile] API.
34+
35+
- To assign an icon category to the points returned by [Get Traffic Incident] v2025-01-01, use the `incidentType` enum provided in the response.
36+
37+
- Traffic map tiles are available in vector and raster format in the Render service using the [Get Map Tile] API.
38+
39+
## Transactions usage
40+
41+
For information on how transactions are calculated for the Traffic and Render services, see [Understanding Azure Maps Transactions].
42+
43+
## Traffic service examples
44+
45+
This section provides example requests and responses for version 1.0 and 2025-01-01 of the Traffic Incident API and version 2024-04-01 the Render Map Tile API.
46+
47+
### Traffic Incident version 1.0 example
48+
49+
Version 1.0 of the Traffic Incident API is an HTTP `GET` request that returns all traffic incidents within the specified bounding box.
50+
51+
```http
52+
https://atlas.microsoft.com/traffic/incident/detail/json?api-version=1.0&style=s3&boundingbox=37,-105,45,-94&boundingZoom=11&trafficmodelid=1335294634919&projection=EPSG4326&subscription-key={Your-Azure-Maps-Subscription-key}
53+
```
54+
55+
The response contains all traffic incidents within the specified bounding box in JSON format. The results are truncated for brevity.
