First of all I would like to say that I'm not an expert in this domain, so please forgive me if I don't express myself properly.
I would like to know if it is possible to consider regulary stops when I'm running a network analysis in ArcGIS Server.
For example in Spain truck drivers have some driving times limitations:
- Continued driving: until 4:30h, then they need to do a mandatory stop of 45min
- Daily driving: 9h + 10h twice per week
- Weekly driving: 56h
- etc.
I would like to do this to be more precise estimating the delivery time.
I'm pretty sure this is not possible though the REST API but I guess that it might be possible though ArcGIS Server.
Thanks in advance,
Raul
Hello Raul,
I don't think there's enough information to tell you if network analyst can solve your specific situation. For example are you solving one route at a time or solving for a fleet of vehicles? Some thoughts based on what you described: network analyst is not designed to support periodic routing, but workflows can be configured & customized to support this. The VRP solver has max total travel times, and also models breaks.
