Bing Maps Spatial Data Services (SDS) Toolkit for .NET

This is a portable .NET class library which provides a set of tools that make it easy to access the Bing Maps Spatial Data Services in .NET based apps. The Bing Maps Spatial Data Services provides the following key functionalities:

  • Batch forward and reverse Geocoding of up to 200,000 rows of data in a single request.
  • Spatial data hosting and services: Upload a two dimensional table of data as a data source and expose it as a spatial REST service.
    • Perform spatial queries against data sources using:
      • Find Nearby (radial)
      • Find in bounding box
      • Find by Property
      • Find along a route
      • Intersection search (i.e. search within a custom shape.)
  • Public Data sources: Access public data sources that contain information such as points of interest and census data.
  • Boundary Data: Access to administrative boundary data via the Geodata API. Boundary data types available vary from country to country. Supported boundary types; zip/postal codes, neighborhoods, cities, counties, states/provinces, countries, and continents.

See the documentation for more information on how to use this library. This toolkit is based on the documentation for the Bing Maps Spatial Data Services.

If you are working with the Bing Maps REST services which provides; on-demand forward and reverse geocoding, routing, static imagery, traffic and elevation data, take a look at the Bing Maps REST Toolkit.

NuGet Package

The Bing Maps Spatial Data Services Toolkit is available as a NuGet package. If using Visual Studio, open the nuget package manager, select the Browse tab and search for "Bing Maps SDS". This should reduce the list of results enough to find the "BingMapsSDSToolkit" package. The owner of the package is bingmaps and the author is Microsoft.

Alternatively, if you are using the nuget command line:

PM> Install-Package BingMapsSDSToolkit

Features

Data Source API:

  • Easily geocode and upload a data source with just a few lines of code.
  • Automatically compresses data before uploading.
  • Supports uploading of delimited (pipe, tab, comma), XML (as per SDS schema), KML, KMZ and SHP files. Can read compressed file streams such as zipped files containing one of these files.
  • Local Data Source validation. Reduces the number of invalid data sources that are uploaded, thus reduce the number of wasted SDS jobs that are created.
  • Better support for delimited files.
    • Schema text not required.
    • Handles quoted column header values.
    • Handles extra delimiters in schema text line.
  • Wraps 99% of functionalities (no support for downloading the data schema of a data source as it isn't needed by this library).

Geocode Data Flow API:

  • Easily forward or reverse geocode up to 200,000 entities in a single request.
  • Combines like addresses as a single request. This allows rows with the same addresses to only create a single row in the geocode process. This helps to maximize the 1M free batch geocode limit.

Geodata API:

  • Easily access the boundary data from the GeoData API and search for zip/postal codes, neighborhoods, cities, counties, states/provinces, countries, and continent boundaries.
  • Provides compression tools for handling the encoded polygon data.

Query API:

  • Classes for easily creating queries for a data source.
  • Parses response from any data source into a common QueryResult object.
  • Support for multiple distance units (km, miles, feet, meters, yards)
  • Support for filters.
  • Handles encoding filter values, and escapes single quotes by using the OData convention of using two single quotes side by side.

TODO List

The following is a list of tasks or ideas to do on this project.

  • Add support for XLSX.
  • Get culture for geocoding from country property
  • Option to download existing data source when geocoding, pull coordinates of already geocoded rows if address and id have not changed.
