2023-09-14
| Ticket Number | Description |
|---|---|
| ROUTING-25748 | A new algorithm is now used for calculating EV routes with auto added charging stations (requests with parameter ev[makeReachable]=true). The resulting routes have generally better ETA, they better avoid traffic jams, and there will be fewer situations when a charging station is added for a short charging period. With these improvements it should now be possible to calculate longer charge aware EV routes. |
| ROUTING-24764 | The Route Import engine now provides better support for pedestrian and bicycle matching, by matching to segments that are normally closed to car traffic. |
| ROUTING-23510 | Re-aligned penalties in Routing, which were previously being reduced when using "short" mode. Using local streets and gates will now be more heavily penalized in short mode, to align better with how those features are penalized in fast mode. |
2023-08-01
| Ticket Number | Description |
|---|---|
| ROUTING-25148 | Improved truck routing algorithm to use more arterial roads like highways or expressways, whenever it is possible with only a minimal increase in the driving time. This improvement mainly applies to the following scenarios: A) Driving on local city roads close to the origin / destination. Now routing prefers to enter a nearby arterial road earlier / exit it later. B) Using narrow rural roads for long-distance drives or to connect between highways. Now routing prefers to use arterial roads / stay on them instead. |
| ROUTING-25591 | Routing response now returns Pool id for EV stations in EV charge-aware routes instead of station id due to increased stability of the ids. |
2023-03-07
