Different load weight for different parts of the route

Post by qsku »

Hi guys!
Let's take such an example.
A vehicle goes from point A to point B carrying 5 tons of load. Then it goes from point B to point C carrying 20 tons of load.
I'd like to calculate a single route considering all the load weights.
In the first part of the route the vehicle is lighter so it can use different roads.
Is it possible to pass a different load weight for different parts of the route?

I use the xServer .NET control and the XRoute web service to calculate the route.

Hello qsku,

I recommend to check the following properties of the WaypointDesc class:
  • routingOptions
  • vehicleOptions
Their purpose is to define individual settings on parts of a track.
Two properties of the WaypointDesc class. They are applied between two stops then.

Looks like they are what you need for the usecase described above.
