Map localization

The API can be used to display maps that are localized in various languages and reflect differences in specific countries.
For example, you can display a map with labels in English and indicate distances in miles.

To set a language for the map, pass the lang parameter when connecting the API:

lang=language_region

language: Two-letter language code. Specified in ISO 639-1 format. Sets the language for objects on the map (toponyms and controls).
region: The two-letter country code. Specified in ISO 3166-1 format. Determines regional settings, such as measurement units (for indicating distances between objects or driving speeds on a route).

Note.

Distance is shown in kilometers for the RU, UA, and TR regions, and in miles for the US region.

The following locales are currently supported:

lang=ru_RU
lang=ru_UA
lang=uk_UA
lang=tr_TR
lang=en_RU
lang=en_US
lang=he_IL
lang=en_IL
