Determining highway direction in here maps

Does Here map iOS sdk provides Highway direction?

Example: While driving on US Highways/Interstate, Here map is providing information like I-5 or WA-14.
Can we get which highway/interstate direction we are heading into. Like I-5 N or WA-14 S.

You can allways use course infromation taken from currentPosition(NMAGeoPositon object) of the NMAPositionManager.

Swift

NMAPositionManager.sharedInstance().currentPosition?.course 

or Objective-C

[NMAPositionManager sharedPositioningManager].currentPosition.course

Valid course values are in the range [0, 360), with 0 degrees representing north and values increasing clockwise. Thus, east is 90 degrees, south is 180 degrees, and so on. Will be NMAGeoPositionUnknownValue if unknown.


Also it can be obtained from waypoint course.

calculatedRoute.waypoints[idx].course; 

or aliases 'start', 'destination' can be used

calculatedRoute.start.course;
calculatedRoute.destination.course;

Another one is to use mapOrientation of maneuver

calculatedRoute.maneuvers[idx].mapOrientation

The angle (from north) at the start of the maneuver, in degrees. Zero represents true-north, with increasing values representing a clockwise progression of map orientation.
