<br>
I am wanting to be able to return the current road my passing a http request to the api endpoint passing the co ordinates of the users location with each request.<br>
<br>
Just wondering if this function already exist and it is a matter of sending the http request to the api each time ???<br>
<br>
Basically I have gps tracking devices that send location data to my server every 3 second and want the road speed of their location determined by the api and returned each time I send the http request to the api endpoint.<br>
<br>
Can you also advise the variable name that is returned that will hold the road speed.<br>
