Travel Time Python SDK helps users find locations by journey
time rather than using ‘as the crow flies’ distance.
Time-based searching gives users more opportunities for personalisation and delivers a more relevant search.
Install Travel Time Python SDK in a virtualenv using pip. virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python
environments.
virtualenv allows to install Travel Time Python SDK without needing system install permissions, and without clashing
with the installed system dependencies.
pip3 install virtualenv
virtualenv <your-env>
source <your-env>/bin/activate
<your-env>/bin/pip install traveltimepy
pip install virtualenv
virtualenv <your-env>
<your-env>\Scripts\activate
<your-env>\Scripts\pip.exe install traveltimepy
In order to authenticate with Travel Time API, you will have to supply the Application Id and Api Key.

A fast version of time filter communicating using protocol buffers.
The request parameters are much more limited and only travel time is returned. In addition, the results are only approximately correct (95% of the results are guaranteed to be within 5% of the routes returned by regular time filter). This inflexibility comes with a benefit of faster response times (Over 5x faster compared to regular time filter) and larger limits on the amount of destination points.

It is useful when you have an application that can do searches in any country that we support, you can use Supported Locations to get the map name for a certain point and then use this endpoint to check what features are available for that map. That way you could show fares for routes in the maps that support it.
