Return value of hereAPI router in metres?

Question

We're currently investigating in the HERE Routing API v8 but can't really determine what the actual result consists of when units is set to metric.

Example result:

"summary": {
  "duration": 1670,
  "length": 12865,
  "baseDuration": 1506
},
"transport": {
  "mode": "truck"
}

Would the length be in metres perhaps? And what about the duration? Is that in seconds?

Answer 1

Please find the following parameters along with their units of measurement

1. duration: required integer (Duration) Duration in seconds.

2. length : required integer (Distance) >= 0 Distance in meters. For more information please refer to the following API Reference
