Ferry-Costs

[Max Beermann]

Hello and happy new year,

maybe you can help me:

I have a routing with the use of a ferry - but I do not receive the costs for that ferry.
Where is my mistake (xroute / calculateAdvancedTour)?

Code: Select all

Hello Max,

that's right: we do not return a fiscal value for the ferry. We also do not maintain timetables.
In the standard routing engine the ferry is just some kind of a teleporting segment that links two regions.

If you are interested in an engine that might open this portal you could have a look at xIntermodal.

Best regards,
Bernd

Hello Bernd,

thanks for your fast reply.

Ah > good to know!:)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Now I am a little bit confused.
This routing has a ferry-price (SPECIALCHARGEFERRY) .
So do you know why there is a ferry price?

PS: Are there more categories, that should not be considered for price-calculations (Vignette, Intferry, etc.)?

Best regards and thanks in advance
Max

[Bernd Welter]

Of course you are right, I've overseen that - it is part of the toll output.

Honestly spoken I don't know how we determine the price and therefore I'll forward the topic to some data junkies inside PTV to get a proper description.

Best regards,
Bernd

Hello Bernd,

thanks for your kind help!

Goord morning Bernd,

one more question concerning the ferries:

Example: F-Calais > GB-Dover.
RoutingOption / parameter="AVOID_FERRIES" / value="-99"

Is it possible to seperate the ferry-time from the road-time?

Code: Select all

  <ns3:CountryInfo iuCode="33" currency="EUR" countryCode="" additionalInfo="" scenarioId="3">
            <ns3:partRouteInfo distance="5733" time="937" cost="0" />
            <ns3:wrappedPerNCRouteInfo>
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="2223" time="160" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="1990" time="290" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="1364" time="407" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="156" time="80" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" />

          <ns3:CountryInfo iuCode="44" currency="EUR" countryCode="" additionalInfo="" scenarioId="2">
            <ns3:partRouteInfo distance="2352" time="7229" cost="0" />
            <ns3:wrappedPerNCRouteInfo>
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="7020" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="2263" time="196" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="89" time="13" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" />
              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" />

              <ns3:RouteInfo distance="0" time="0" cost="0" /> 

Thanks again in advance!

Hello Max,

you can retrieve the time from the ferry segment:

List of segments. A ferry segment does not provide a segment length but period. This example is DOVER->CALAIS which is about 2 hours.

Best regards,
Bernd

[Max Beermann]

Good morning Bernd,

that was really quick > THANKS!
Max

[Max Beermann]

Hi Bernd,

(maybe) one (little) thing:

Where can I get segTime?
- Currently I only get accTime.


Or is "your" segTime = accTime (y) - acctime (x)?

Thanks in advance
Max

[Bernd Welter]

correct: it is derived by some other properties:

Code: Select all

if (SegmentIndex==0)
 segTime = segment[0].accTime;
else
 segTime = segment[segmentIndex].accTime - segment[segmentIndex-1].accTime;
