hi every one, i am trying to make a layer for roads to be used later in android to find the shortest path from source to destination, is it possible to do so ?

[MustafaAsaad]

i  am supposed to make an  android application ,  that find the shortest path , only the searching should be based on my algorithm , not the one provided by the company ,  so i wondering  if i can make a map (Streets) (Nodes , edges) , and then open  it in an  android application.

Hi mostfaasaad‌,

Are you looking to build your own routing solution from scratch or are you looking to use the network analyst tools to build the network dataset?

Additionally, you can use ArcGIS Pro to create a mobile map package with your network datasets and locator which you can then access on the mobile device.

It really depends on your requirements.

Well the only thing that metters the i pit the code of the shortest path (

like building it from scratch)

Hi Mustafa Asaad‌,

In that case, I would build the mobile map package in ArcGIS Pro using your streets and then using this class MobileMapPackage| arcgis-android  you could open the package and grab the map and the layers.  You could then use your algorithm in the application to work with your dataset presented in the map.

I hope this helps!

Thanks,

Alexander
