Network Programming in .NET

If you wanted to create an app that allows commuters in Ireland feel safe getting into a Taxi, you can use this API to check if the taxi is legitimately registered. (And it’s free)

Here’s the API endpoint;

http://ie.carregistrationapi.com/api/bespokeapi.asmx?op=CheckIrishTaxi

And here is a sample response from 05MH6068

<IrishTaxi xmlns:xsd=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema“ xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance“ xmlns=”http://Regcheck.org.uk/“>

<LicenceNumber>T30041</LicenceNumber>

<Expiry>09/02/2018</Expiry>

<LicenceHolder>PATRICK GERAGHTY</LicenceHolder>

</IrishTaxi>

This may be built into the main API available here; http://ie.carregistrationapi.com
