Here's a list of key features we invented in xServer2 - so this is more the functional perspective. For a generic overview of the framework improvements check this article.
If you want to evaluate the features by yourself feel free to check this link.
- xLocate 2: improved geocoding behaviour due to massive additional data (so-called address points). We ship more then 35GB of geocoding data on top of the european city map itself. So we now know the exact rooftop and house entry coordinates of millions of buildings.
- xMap 2: more beautiful maps. supports REST and stable rendering, therefore easier to integrate into mapping frameworks such as LEAFLET and OPEN LAYERS.
- xRoute2: detailed toll calculation, more flexible
- xRoute2: monetary cost based routing (includes toll and custom prices per minute and kilometer)
- xRoute2: more flexible TimeConsideration modes, i.e. efficient handling of time-based features layers
- xRoute: improved driver logbook within break- and restrules.
- xTour: completely new designed algorithms: improved performance and quality of estimated tour planning output.
- xTour: new business cases: known tour planning approaches are focussed on planning of future tours, with xTour2 we also approach tours in execution
- xLoad: Loading Space Optimization - determine the number of required containers and loading meters, stack freight properly
- xDima: time-dependent distance matrices (including "multiple daytime dima)
- xDima: support more flexible handling of distance matrix calculation, e.g. non-square matrices
- xData: supports creation of high performance routing networks through API (wasn't possible in xServer1) (April 2021: OnPremise only)
- xData: custom feature layer - we invented an API you can use to maintain your own segment attributes (April 2021: OnPremise only)
- xRuntime: server offers API methods to gather status and configuration info.
Best regards,
