An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of rules and protocols that enables different software applications to communicate with each other. It defines how requests and responses are structured, what data formats are used, and which operations are available. In essence, APIs allow systems to integrate and interact seamlessly without exposing their internal complexity
Below is a demonstration of an API developed to interact with Broadband Map data. By providing the coordinates of a location (in WGS84 format), the application returns information indicating whether the point lies within 10 km of a fiber node.
