a partner asked me whether and how he could approach the following challenge:
- Input: a given location (address or even coordinate)
- Desired output: some kind of a qualification of the location's reachability based on a specific routing profile
- Dummy routing 1 : (x,y) to (x+delta,y+delta), kind of faking a minimal route y shifting the (x,y) by delta: Attention - For segments with a restricted driving direction this could lead to circle routing which will then be based on various segments and not just the desired one. Further more the delta would depend on the coordinate format. Otherwise you get an empty route.
- route via
8.4676704364,48.999748192
8.4677704364,48.999848192
- Dummy routing 2 : From a well known, far away, uncritical coordinate to (x,y) - according to Frank this looks more promising. You would encounter a longer computation time but if you handle this as an "administrative task" a batch processing sounds meaningful. With this approach you could then evaluate the last segments on the route.
- Violations? Recommendation Frank: enable them. Otherwise the router might link the location to the nearest unviolated segment which could be located too far away for a proper qualification
Best regards and have a nice weekend,
