Searchgraph World Map: requirements

Data which is used in a more general manner can be requested by xData service. Therefore this data is not provided by one of the other functional services, but concentrated in an own independent service.
Attention: this is not the platform for the data itself. If you have questions about missing data or the handling of binary maps please look at Data and Content.

Searchgraph World Map: requirements

Post by Bernd Welter »

Cheers,
one of our developers calculated a search graph for the whole world map (PTV_World_City_Map_Premium_2022_2H). Not impossible, but the process is quite hungry for ressources (both time and memory)... here's a quick summary:
  • Status: it worked ;-)
  • 64 GB memory + 100GB pagefile
  • Temporarily the process "ChNodeOrderGenerator" grabbed more than 150 virtual memory
  • Complete creation took more than 4 hours
Please be aware that this was more or less an academic test (in the context of PTV xIntermodal). In a production environment such a graph would also require much memory and as users normally deal with a clear geographic region such as Europe XOR North America we do not recommend to create such enormous structures if not really needed.

I did it - because I was able to do so:
2023-06-05 12:46:04,268;8556d10a-7d80-4662-b552-bdaeef61b422;127.0.0.1;unknown;unknown-port;notebook.bwe;XData.createHighPerformanceRoutingNetwork;true;-;-;-;default;m0001;0;4892615;4893417;async;-;-
So within a 1:20 hrs time I successfully computed a WORLD HPR on my 64GB memory driven laptop.
The output file is about 14GB in size.
But as mentioned above: you probably better create continental grahphs based on GEOGRAPHIC RESTRICTIONS such as
  • allowed countries=["zz-eur"]
