timeConsideration functionality in xServer1

Hello Bernd,

I have a quick question regarding the consideration of road blocks in routing.

We've implemented a feature that takes into account temporary restrictions (e.g., construction) during routing. We're also interested in adding a feature that considers the dates and times of specific stations. If I'm not mistaken, timeConsideration in xServer2 serves this purpose.

Is there a similar functionality available in xServer1, or is it exclusive to xServer2?

Thank you,
Peter

Hi Peter,

in xRoute1 there is a class TourPointDesc which was used in the calculateAdvancedTour method.

Probably that's what you were looking for?

Be aware that this old approach does not support each and every potential feature that you could reach through the xroute2 API, e.g. the xroute1 does not manage to handle
  • time dependent feature layers
  • break- and rest rules
within the same method.

I recommend to check your current requirement 1:1 - maybe we can find a solution for this together,

Bernd
