  description: The Bee Maps (Hivemapper) Developer API delivers fresh street-level imagery, ML-detected map features, AI event videos, and on-demand mapping (Bursts) from the world's largest decentralized dashcam network. Data is queried by point, polygon, or linestring and billed on a two-tier model (API credits per query plus per-view USD metering for signed imagery URLs). Requests are limited to a maximum query area of 5 sq km and use GeoJSON [longitude, latitude] coordinate order. This specification was generated faithfully from the public Bee Maps API reference; it is not a provider-published OpenAPI document.
