Recently, Baidu LBS open platform to enable new domain names, began to strengthen the "platform" concept, will focus on positioning, mapping and search three areas of service. Relative to the platform now open for Baidu, the former Baidu LBS cloud for developers tend to be simple API tools. And the developer's business data and no way to integrate well with the geographic data. Let the original lack of precise latitude and longitude or detailed address information, you need to combine the interface such as geocoding processing. Once the massive influx of data, it will lead to rendering the map too slow, thus limiting the computing power.
Therefore, after updating the domain name, Baidu will fully open the map engine to developers, including the mapping engine and search engine, which will support the cloud retrieval of developers' own business data for the first time. Developers can combine their own data with the data of Baidu map in the cloud and accomplish all the calculation and rendering of location data such as ranging, local search, surrounding query and path planning on the platform.
In addition to the map service, Baidu LBS cloud platform is also in the cloud storage API, adding visual editing tools. Developers can simulate or implement data storage, data field setting and retrieval directly on the open platform, unlike the original must refer to the text code in the development document, step by step test in other programs. To learn similar programming, you can debug in the editor directly run the program.
According to Baidu, at present, there are 250,000 websites and application map services to access Baidu map (such as ink weather, street unfamiliar, pea pod, sing it, love Fantastic Art, etc.), using Baidu positioning function of more than 70,000, every day Location request more than 2 billion times. Baidu hopes to bring together the location data of each vertical site through this platform to promote business cooperation among various websites and achieve data sharing. Of course, whether to open the data to Baidu, and the extent to which the data should be opened up, is up to the developer himself.
