Create routes from GPS data

ThiagoLouro

Hi, everyone!

I have GPS data for around 60k trips. For each trip, I need to generate the route and determine the network distance between GPS points.

To achieve this, I am solving the route, splitting it into segments based on the GPS points, and then joining it back with the GPS data to calculate the speed between each observation.

First, I would like to know if this is the best approach, or if you would recommend any alternatives.

Second, I managed to do this for a single trip, but I'm struggling to scale it to all 60k trips, as the code is taking too long to run. Any advice?

Hey Thiago, in case you missed it, I sent you a private message for your use case. The route solver isn't geared towards solving for GPS tracks. The new snap to roads service we are working on is more appropriate for snapping GPS points to underlying roads and return some road properties. If you are interested in this new service, feel free to send me an email (mzeng@esri.com).
