I am trying to use Azure Functions as an API that returns a set of boxes(Lat Lng for each corner) along a route, final scope is to identify if a point is located near the route based on an offset distance.

For browser, I have found out that RouteBoxer is doing a great job at this however it can not work in Azure Functions Node.JS

There is also a package leaflet-headless however it uses some dependencies that are no longer available/are deprecated.

I am left with trying on Python. Would you recommend a library that achieves this?

    I'm not familiar with RouteBoxer. Are you basically asking for a mechanism that will provide the extent, or bounding box of a route? So if you have a route from Maine USA to California USA, You'd want to get a box roughly the same of the USA as your output? Further, what data do you have to start with? The route? If the route, you have the start/stop coordinates? – KHibma Nov 30 '20 at 16:21
