Routing with maximum weight

Post by log-konz »

Hello everyone,

in the vehicle profiles we can define the attribute "weight".
Up to what maximum weight can the routing find the allowed route for a vehicle?

For example, if we have a 54-ton vehicle, can a route be found for it?
What is the maximum weight?

Hello Daniel,

the attribute of the definesd the vehicles own weight. In your example it is a huge vehicle with 54 tons.
The counterpart of the vehicles property is a truck attribute on a street which is used to determine whether the vehicle is allowed to drive on that road: If the maximum weight attribute of the road is lower than the value of the vehicle it is not allowed to drive on that road.
Screenshot from the showcases XServer Internet. Displays some TruckAttributes in Luxemburg, e.g. weight restriction, height restriction, hazardous goods

To make this work you need to
- specify the attributes of the vehicle via request profile or stored profile
- and activate the PTV _TruckAttributes feature layer
