Parameters:

Parameter: Stops

Data Type: GPFeatureRecordSetLayer
Display Name Stops
Description: Specify the locations you want the output route or routes to visit. You can add up to 10,000 stops and assign up to 150 stops to a single route. (Assign stops to routes using the RouteName attribute.)When specifying the stops, you can set properties for each one, such as its name or service time, by using attributes. The stops can be specified with the following attributes:NameThe name of the stop. The name is used in the driving directions. If the name is not specified, a unique name prefixed with Location is automatically generated in the output stops, routes, and directions.RouteNameThe name of the route to which the stop is assigned. Assigning the same route name to different stops causes those stops to be grouped together and visited by the same route. You can generate many routes in a single solve by assigning unique route names to different groups of stops. You can group up to 150 stops into one route.SequenceThe output routes will visit the stops in the order you specify with this attribute. Within a group of stops that have the same RouteName value, the sequence number should be greater than 0 but not greater than the total number of stops. Also, the sequence number should not be duplicated. If Reorder Stops To Find Optimal Routes is checked (True), all but possibly the first and last sequence values for each route name are ignored so the tool can find the sequence that minimizes overall travel for each route. (The settings for Preserve Ordering of Stops and Return to Start determine whether the first or last sequence values for each route are ignored.)AdditionalTimeThe amount of time spent at the stop, which is added to the total time of the route. The default value is 0. The units for this attribute value are specified by the Measurement Units parameter. The attribute value is included in the analysis only when the measurement units are time based. You can account for the extra time it takes at the stop to complete a task, such as to repair an appliance, deliver a package, or inspect the premises.AdditionalDistanceThe extra distance traveled at the stops, which is added to the total distance of the route. The default value is 0.The units for this attribute value are specified by the Measurement Units parameter. The attribute value is included in the analysis only when the measurement units are distance based. Generally, the location of a stop, such as a home, isn't exactly on the street; it is set back somewhat from the road. This attribute value can be used to model the distance between the actual stop location and its location on the street if it is important to include that distance in the total travel distance.AdditionalCostThe extra cost spent at the stop, which is added to the total cost of the route. The default value is 0. This attribute value should be used when the travel mode for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is neither time based nor distance based. The units for the attribute values are interpreted to be in unknown units. TimeWindowStartThe earliest time the stop can be visited. By specifying a start and end time for a stop's time window, you are defining when a route should visit the stop. When the travel mode for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is time-based, by specifying time-window values the analysis will find a solution that minimizes overall travel and reaches the stop within the prescribed time window. Make sure you specify the value as a date and time value, such as 8/12/2015 12:15 PM. When solving a problem that spans multiple time zones, time-window values refer to the time zone in which the stop is located.This field can contain a null value; a null value indicates a route can arrive at any time before the time indicated in the TimeWindowEnd attribute. If a null value is also present in TimeWindowEnd, a route can visit the stop at any time.TimeWindowEndThe latest time the stop can be visited. By specifying a start and end time for a stop's time window, you are defining when a route should visit the stop. When the travel mode for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is time-based, specifying time-window values will cause the analysis to find a solution that minimizes overall travel and reaches the stop within the prescribed time window. Make sure you specify the value as a date and time value, such as 8/12/2015 12:15 PM. When solving a problem that spans multiple time zones, time-window values refer to the time zone in which the stop is located.This field can contain a null value; a null value indicates a route can arrive at any time after the time indicated in the TimeWindowStart attribute. If a null value is also present in TimeWindowStart, a route can visit the stop at any time.CurbApproachSpecifies the direction a vehicle may arrive at and depart from the stop. The field value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Either side of vehicle)—The vehicle can approach and depart the stop in either direction, so a U-turn is allowed at the stop. This setting can be chosen if it is possible and practical for a vehicle to turn around at the stop. This decision may depend on the width of the road and the amount of traffic or whether the stop has a parking lot where vehicles can enter and turn around. 1 (Right side of vehicle)—When the vehicle approaches and departs the stop, the curb must be on the right side of the vehicle. A U-turn is prohibited. This is typically used for vehicles such as buses that must arrive with the bus stop on the right-hand side. 2 (Left side of vehicle)—When the vehicle approaches and departs the stop, the curb must be on the left side of the vehicle. A U-turn is prohibited. This is typically used for vehicles such as buses that must arrive with the bus stop on the left-hand side. 3 (No U-Turn)—When the vehicle approaches the stop, the curb can be on either side of the vehicle; however, the vehicle must depart without turning around. The CurbApproach property is designed to work with both kinds of national driving standards: right-hand traffic (United States) and left-hand traffic (United Kingdom). First, consider a stop on the left side of a vehicle. It is always on the left side regardless of whether the vehicle travels on the left or right half of the road. What may change with national driving standards is your decision to approach a stop from one of two directions, that is, so it ends up on the right or left side of the vehicle. For example, if you want to arrive at a stop and not have a lane of traffic between the vehicle and the stop, you would choose Right side of vehicle (1) in the United States but Left side of vehicle (2) in the United Kingdom.LocationType Specifies the stop type. The field value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in the parentheses): 0 (Stop)—A location that the route should visit. This is the default.1 (Waypoint)—A location that the route should travel through without making a stop. Waypoints can be used to force the route to take a specific path (to go through the waypoint) without being considered an actual stop. Waypoints do not appear in directions.BearingThe direction in which a point is moving. The units are degrees and are measured clockwise from true north. This field is used in conjunction with the BearingTol field. Bearing data is usually sent automatically from a mobile device equipped with a GPS receiver. Try to include bearing data if you are loading an input location that is moving, such as a pedestrian or a vehicle. Using this field tends to prevent adding locations to the wrong edges, which can occur when a vehicle is near an intersection or an overpass for example. Bearing also helps the tool determine on which side of the street the point is. For more information, see Bearing and BearingTol in the ArcGIS help system. BearingTolThe bearing tolerance value creates a range of acceptable bearing values when locating moving points on an edge using the Bearing field. If the value from the Bearing field is within the range of acceptable values that are generated from the bearing tolerance on an edge, the point can be added as a network location there; otherwise, the closest point on the next-nearest edge is evaluated. The units are in degrees, and the default value is 30. Values must be greater than 0 and less than 180. A value of 30 means that when ArcGIS Network Analyst extension attempts to add a network location on an edge, a range of acceptable bearing values is generated 15 degrees to either side of the edge (left and right) and in both digitized directions of the edge. For more information, see Bearing and BearingTol in the ArcGIS help system. NavLatencyThis field is only used in the solve process if Bearing and BearingTol also have values; however, entering a NavLatency value is optional, even when values are present in Bearing and BearingTol. NavLatency indicates how much time is expected to elapse from the moment GPS information is sent from a moving vehicle to a server and the moment the processed route is received by the vehicle's navigation device. The time units of NavLatency are the same as the units specified by the timeUnits property of the analysis object.

Data Type: GPBoolean
Display Name Reorder Stops to Find Optimal Routes
Description: Specify whether to visit the stops in the order you define or the order the tool determines will minimize overall travel. Checked (True)—The tool determines the sequence that will minimize overall travel distance or time. It can reorder stops and account for time windows at stops. Additional parameters allow you to preserve the first or last stops while allowing the tool to reorder the intermediary stops.Unchecked (False)—The stops are visited in the order you define. This is the default option. You can set the order of stops using a Sequence attribute in the input stops features or let the sequence be determined by the Object ID of the stops. Finding the optimal stop order and the best routes is commonly known as solving the traveling salesman problem (TSP).

Description: The time and date the routes will begin. If you are modeling the driving travel mode and specify the current date and time as the value for this parameter, the tool will use live traffic conditions to find the best routes, and the total travel time will be based on traffic conditions. Specifying a time of day results in more accurate routes and estimations of travel times because the travel times account for the traffic conditions that are applicable for that date and time.The Time Zone for Time of Day parameter specifies whether this time and date refer to UTC or the time zone in which the stop is located.The tool ignores this parameter when Measurement Units isn't set to a time-based unit.

Parameter: Time_Zone_for_Time_of_Day

Data Type: GPString
Display Name Time Zone for Time of Day
Description: Specifies the time zone of the Time of Day parameter.Geographically Local—The Time of Day parameter refers to the time zone in which the first stop of a route is located. If you are generating many routes that start in multiple times zones, the start times are staggered in coordinated universal time (UTC). For example, a Time of Day value of 10:00 a.m., 2 January, means a start time of 10:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (UTC-3:00) for routes beginning in the Eastern Time Zone and 10:00 a.m. Central Standard Time (UTC-4:00) for routes beginning in the Central Time Zone. The start times are offset by one hour in UTC. The arrive and depart times and dates recorded in the output Stops feature class will refer to the local time zone of the first stop for each route.UTC—The Time of Day parameter refers to UTC. Choose this option if you want to generate a route for a specific time, such as now, but aren't certain in which time zone the first stop will be located. If you are generating many routes spanning multiple times zones, the start times in UTC are simultaneous. For example, a Time of Day value of 10:00 a.m., 2 January, means a start time of 5:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5:00) for routes beginning in the Eastern Time Zone and 4:00 a.m. Central Standard Time (UTC-6:00) for routes beginning in the Central Time Zone. Both routes start at 10:00 a.m. UTC. The arrive and depart times and dates recorded in the output Stops feature class will refer to UTC.

Parameter: UTurn_at_Junctions

Data Type: GPString
Display Name UTurn at Junctions
Description: Specifies the U-Turn policy at junctions. Allowing U-turns implies the solver can turn around at a junction and double back on the same street. Given that junctions represent street intersections and dead ends, different vehicles may be able to turn around at some junctions but not at others—it depends on whether the junction represents an intersection or dead end. To accommodate, the U-turn policy parameter is implicitly specified by how many edges connect to the junction, which is known as junction valency. The acceptable values for this parameter are listed below; each is followed by a description of its meaning in terms of junction valency. Allowed—U-turns are permitted at junctions with any number of connected edges. This is the default value.Not Allowed—U-turns are prohibited at all junctions, regardless of junction valency. Note, however, that U-turns are still permitted at network locations even when this option is chosen; however, you can set the individual network locations' CurbApproach attribute to prohibit U-turns there as well.Allowed only at Dead Ends—U-turns are prohibited at all junctions, except those that have only one adjacent edge (a dead end).Allowed only at Intersections and Dead Ends—U-turns are prohibited at junctions where exactly two adjacent edges meet but are permitted at intersections (junctions with three or more adjacent edges) and dead ends (junctions with exactly one adjacent edge). Often, networks have extraneous junctions in the middle of road segments. This option prevents vehicles from making U-turns at these locations.This parameter is ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom.

Parameter: Point_Barriers

Data Type: GPFeatureRecordSetLayer
Display Name Point Barriers
Description: One or more points that will act as temporary restrictions or represent additional time or distance that may be required to travel on the underlying streets. For example, a point barrier can be used to represent a fallen tree along a street or time delay spent at a railroad crossing. The tool imposes a limit of 250 points that can be added as barriers.When specifying point barriers, you can set properties for each, such as its name or barrier type, using the following attributes: Name The name of the barrier. BarrierType Specifies whether the point barrier restricts travel completely or adds time or distance when it is crossed. The value for this attribute is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Restriction)—Prohibits travel through the barrier. The barrier is referred to as a restriction point barrier since it acts as a restriction. 2 (Added Cost)—Traveling through the barrier increases the travel time or distance by the amount specified in the Additional_Time, Additional_Distance, or Additional_Cost field. This barrier type is referred to as an added-cost point barrier. Additional_Time The added travel time when the barrier is traversed. This field is applicable only for added-cost barriers and only if the travel mode used for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is time based. This field value must be greater than or equal to zero, and its units are the same as those specified in the Measurement Units parameter. Additional_DistanceThe added distance when the barrier is traversed. This field is applicable only for added-cost barriers and only if the travel mode used for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is distance based. The field value must be greater than or equal to zero, and its units are the same as those specified in the Measurement Units parameter.Additional_CostThe added cost when the barrier is traversed. This field is applicable only for added-cost barriers and only if the travel mode used for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is neither time based nor distance based. FullEdgeSpecifies how the restriction point barriers are applied to the edge elements during the analysis. The field value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (False)—Permits travel on the edge up to the barrier but not through it. This is the default value.1 (True)—Restricts travel anywhere on the associated edge. CurbApproachSpecifies the direction of traffic that is affected by the barrier. The field value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Either side of vehicle)—The barrier affects travel over the edge in both directions.1 (Right side of vehicle)—Vehicles are only affected if the barrier is on their right side during the approach. Vehicles that traverse the same edge but approach the barrier on their left side are not affected by the barrier. 2 (Left side of vehicle)—Vehicles are only affected if the barrier is on their left side during the approach. Vehicles that traverse the same edge but approach the barrier on their right side are not affected by the barrier. Because junctions are points and don't have a side, barriers on junctions affect all vehicles regardless of the curb approach. The CurbApproach attribute is designed to work with both types of national driving standards: right-hand traffic (United States) and left-hand traffic (United Kingdom). First, consider a facility on the left side of a vehicle. It is always on the left side regardless of whether the vehicle travels on the left or right half of the road. What may change with national driving standards is your decision to approach a facility from one of two directions, that is, so it ends up on the right or left side of the vehicle. For example, if you want to arrive at a facility and not have a lane of traffic between the vehicle and the facility, you would choose 1 (Right side of vehicle) in the United States and 2 (Left side of vehicle) in the United Kingdom.BearingThe direction in which a point is moving. The units are degrees and are measured clockwise from true north. This field is used in conjunction with the BearingTol field. Bearing data is usually sent automatically from a mobile device equipped with a GPS receiver. Try to include bearing data if you are loading an input location that is moving, such as a pedestrian or a vehicle. Using this field tends to prevent adding locations to the wrong edges, which can occur when a vehicle is near an intersection or an overpass for example. Bearing also helps the tool determine on which side of the street the point is. For more information, see Bearing and BearingTol in the ArcGIS help system. BearingTolThe bearing tolerance value creates a range of acceptable bearing values when locating moving points on an edge using the Bearing field. If the value from the Bearing field is within the range of acceptable values that are generated from the bearing tolerance on an edge, the point can be added as a network location there; otherwise, the closest point on the next-nearest edge is evaluated. The units are in degrees, and the default value is 30. Values must be greater than 0 and less than 180. A value of 30 means that when ArcGIS Network Analyst extension attempts to add a network location on an edge, a range of acceptable bearing values is generated 15 degrees to either side of the edge (left and right) and in both digitized directions of the edge.

Description: One or more lines that prohibit travel anywhere the lines intersect the streets. For example, a parade or protest that blocks traffic across several street segments can be modeled with a line barrier. A line barrier can also quickly fence off several roads from being traversed, thereby channeling possible routes away from undesirable parts of the street network. The tool imposes a limit on the number of streets you can restrict using the Line Barriers parameter. While there is no limit to the number of lines you can specify as line barriers, the combined number of streets intersected by all the lines cannot exceed 500.When specifying the line barriers, you can set name and barrier type properties for each using the following attributes: Name The name of the barrier.

Parameter: Polygon_Barriers

Data Type: GPFeatureRecordSetLayer
Display Name Polygon Barriers
Description: The polygons that either completely restrict travel or proportionately scale the time or distance required to travel on the streets intersected by the polygons. The service imposes a limit on the number of streets you can restrict using the Polygon Barriers parameter. While there is no limit to the number of polygons you can specify as polygon barriers, the combined number of streets intersected by all the polygons cannot exceed 2,000.When specifying the polygon barriers, you can set properties for each, such as its name or barrier type, using the following attributes: Name The name of the barrier. BarrierType Specifies whether the barrier restricts travel completely or scales the cost (such as time or distance) for traveling through it. The field value is specified as one of the following integers (use the numeric code, not the name in parentheses): 0 (Restriction)—Prohibits traveling through any part of the barrier. The barrier is referred to as a restriction polygon barrier since it prohibits traveling on streets intersected by the barrier. One use of this type of barrier is to model floods covering areas of the street that make traveling on those streets impossible. 1 (Scaled Cost)—Scales the cost (such as travel time or distance) required to travel the underlying streets by a factor specified using the ScaledTimeFactor or ScaledDistanceFactor field. If the streets are partially covered by the barrier, the travel time or distance is apportioned and then scaled. For example, a factor of 0.25 means that travel on underlying streets is expected to be four times faster than normal. A factor of 3.0 means it is expected to take three times longer than normal to travel on underlying streets. This barrier type is referred to as a scaled-cost polygon barrier. It can be used to model storms that reduce travel speeds in specific regions. ScaledTimeFactor This is the factor by which the travel time of the streets intersected by the barrier is multiplied. The field value must be greater than zero. This field is applicable only for scaled-cost barriers and only if the travel mode used for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is time based. ScaledDistanceFactor This is the factor by which the distance of the streets intersected by the barrier is multiplied. The field value must be greater than zero.This field is applicable only for scaled-cost barriers and only if the travel mode used for the analysis uses an impedance attribute that is distance based.

Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeOptional
Category: Barriers


Parameter: Use_Hierarchy

Data Type: GPBoolean
Display Name Use Hierarchy
Description: Specifies whether hierarchy will be used when finding the shortest paths between stops. Checked (True in Python)—Hierarchy will be used when finding routes. When hierarchy is used, the tool identifies higher-order streets (such as freeways) before lower-order streets (such as local roads) and can be used to simulate the driver preference of traveling on freeways instead of local roads even if that means a longer trip. This is especially useful when finding routes to faraway locations, because drivers on long-distance trips tend to prefer traveling on freeways, where stops, intersections, and turns can be avoided. Using hierarchy is computationally faster, especially for long-distance routes, as the tool identifies the best route from a relatively smaller subset of streets. Unchecked (False in Python)—Hierarchy will not be used when finding routes. If hierarchy is not used, the tool considers all the streets and doesn't necessarily identify higher-order streets when finding the route. This is often used when finding short routes within a city. The tool automatically reverts to using hierarchy if the straight-line distance between facilities and demand points is greater than 50 miles (80.46 kilometers), even if this parameter is unchecked (set to False in Python).This parameter is ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom. When modeling a custom walking mode, it is recommended that you turn off hierarchy since hierarchy is designed for motorized vehicles.

Parameter: Restrictions

Data Type: GPMultiValue:GPString
Display Name Restrictions
Description: The restrictions that will be honored by the tool when finding the best routes.A restriction represents a driving preference or requirement. In most cases, restrictions cause roads to be prohibited. For instance, using the Avoid Toll Roads restriction will result in a route that will include toll roads only when it is required to travel on toll roads to visit an incident or a facility. Height Restriction makes it possible to route around any clearances that are lower than the height of your vehicle. If you are carrying corrosive materials on your vehicle, using the Any Hazmat Prohibited restriction prevents hauling the materials along roads where it is marked illegal to do so. The values you provide for this parameter are ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom.Some restrictions require an additional value to be specified for their use. This value must be associated with the restriction name and a specific parameter intended to work with the restriction. You can identify such restrictions if their names appear in the AttributeName column in the Attribute Parameter Values parameter. The ParameterValue field should be specified in the Attribute Parameter Values parameter for the restriction to be correctly used when finding traversable roads.Some restrictions are supported only in certain countries; their availability is stated by region in the list below. Of the restrictions that have limited availability within a region, you can determine whether the restriction is available in a particular country by reviewing the table in the Country List section of Data coverage for network analysis services web page. If a country has a value of Yes in the Logistics Attribute column, the restriction with select availability in the region is supported in that country. If you specify restriction names that are not available in the country where your incidents are located, the service ignores the invalid restrictions. The service also ignores restrictions when the Restriction Usage attribute parameter value is between 0 and 1 (see the Attribute Parameter Value parameter). It prohibits all restrictions when the Restriction Usage parameter value is greater than 0.The tool supports the following restrictions: Any Hazmat Prohibited—The results will not include roads where transporting any kind of hazardous material is prohibited. Availability: Select countries in North America and Europe Avoid Carpool Roads—The results will avoid roads that are designated exclusively for car pool (high-occupancy) vehicles.

Parameter: Attribute_Parameter_Values

Data Type: GPRecordSet
Display Name Attribute Parameter Values
Description: Specifies additional values required by some restrictions, such as the weight of a vehicle for Weight Restriction. You can also use the attribute parameter to specify whether any restriction prohibits, avoids, or prefers travel on roads that use the restriction. If the restriction is meant to avoid or prefer roads, you can further specify the degree to which they are avoided or preferred using this parameter. For example, you can choose to never use toll roads, avoid them as much as possible, or even highly prefer them.The values you provide for this parameter are ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom. If you specify the Attribute Parameter Values parameter from a feature class, the field names on the feature class must match the fields as follows:AttributeName—Lists the name of the restriction.ParameterName—Lists the name of the parameter associated with the restriction. A restriction can have one or more ParameterName field values based on its intended use.ParameterValue—The value for ParameterName used by the tool when evaluating the restriction. The Attribute Parameter Values parameter is dependent on the Restrictions parameter. The ParameterValue field is applicable only if the restriction name is specified as the value for the Restrictions parameter. In Attribute Parameter Values, each restriction (listed as AttributeName) has a ParameterName field value, Restriction Usage, that specifies whether the restriction prohibits, avoids, or prefers travel on the roads associated with the restriction as well as the degree to which the roads are avoided or preferred. The Restriction Usage ParameterName can be assigned any of the following string values or their equivalent numeric values listed in the parentheses: PROHIBITED (-1)—Travel on the roads using the restriction is completely prohibited. AVOID_HIGH (5)—It is highly unlikely the tool will include in the route the roads that are associated with the restriction. AVOID_MEDIUM (2)—It is unlikely the tool will include in the route the roads that are associated with the restriction. AVOID_LOW (1.3)—It is somewhat unlikely the tool will include in the route the roads that are associated with the restriction. PREFER_LOW (0.8)—It is somewhat likely the tool will include in the route the roads that are associated with the restriction. PREFER_MEDIUM (0.5)—It is likely the tool will include in the route the roads that are associated with the restriction. PREFER_HIGH (0.2)—It is highly likely the tool will include in the route the roads that are associated with the restriction. In most cases, you can use the default value, PROHIBITED, for the Restriction Usage if the restriction is dependent on a vehicle characteristic such as vehicle height. However, in some cases, the Restriction Usage value depends on your routing preferences. For example, the Avoid Toll Roads restriction has the default value of AVOID_MEDIUM for the Restriction Usage attribute. This means that when the restriction is used, the tool will try to route around toll roads when it can. AVOID_MEDIUM also indicates how important it is to avoid toll roads when finding the best route; it has a medium priority. Choosing AVOID_LOW puts lower importance on avoiding tolls; choosing AVOID_HIGH instead gives it a higher importance and thus makes it more acceptable for the service to generate longer routes to avoid tolls. Choosing PROHIBITED entirely disallows travel on toll roads, making it impossible for a route to travel on any portion of a toll road. Keep in mind that avoiding or prohibiting toll roads, and thus avoiding toll payments, is the objective for some. In contrast, others prefer to drive on toll roads, because avoiding traffic is more valuable to them than the money spent on tolls. In the latter case, choose PREFER_LOW, PREFER_MEDIUM, or PREFER_HIGH as the value for Restriction Usage. The higher the preference, the farther the tool will go out of its way to travel on the roads associated with the restriction.

Parameter: Route_Shape

Data Type: GPString
Display Name Route Shape
Description: Specifies the type of route features that are output by the tool. True Shape—Return the exact shape of the resulting route that is based on the underlying streets. True Shape with Measures—Return the exact shape of the resulting route that is based on the underlying streets. Additionally, construct measures so the shape may be used in linear referencing. The measurements increase from the first stop and record the cumulative travel time or travel distance in the units specified by the Measurement Units parameter. Straight Line—Return a straight line between two stops. None—Do not return any shapes for the routes. This value can be useful, and return results quickly, in cases where you are only interested in determining the total travel time or travel distance of a route. When the Route Shape parameter is set to True Shape or True Shape with Measures, the generalization of the route shape can be further controlled using the appropriate value for the Route Line Simplification Tolerance parameter. No matter which value you choose for the Route Shape parameter, the best route is always determined by minimizing the travel time or the travel distance, never using the straight-line distance between stops. This means that only the route shapes are different, not the underlying streets that are searched when finding the route.

Data Type: GPLinearUnit
Display Name Route Line Simplification Tolerance
Description: The distance to be used to simplify the geometry of the output lines for routes, directions, and route edges.The tool ignores this parameter if the Route Shape parameter isn't set to True Shape. Simplification maintains critical points on a route, such as turns at intersections, to define the essential shape of the route and removes other points. The simplification distance you specify is the maximum allowable offset that the simplified line can deviate from the original line. Simplifying a line reduces the number of vertices that are part of the route geometry. This improves the tool execution time.

If an exact match is not found, it tries to match the language family. If a match is still not found, the tool returns the directions using the default language, English. For example, if the directions language is specified as es-MX (Mexican Spanish), the tool will return the directions in Spanish, as it supports the es language code but not es-MX.If a language supports localization, such as Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR) and European Portuguese (pt-PT), you should specify the language family and the localization. If you only specify the language family, the tool will not match the language family and instead return directions in the default language, English. For example, if the directions language is specified as pt, the tool will return the directions in English since it cannot determine whether the directions should be returned in pt-BR or pt-PT.

Parameter: Travel_Mode

Data Type: GPString
Display Name Travel Mode
Description: The mode of transportation to model in the analysis. Travel modes are managed in ArcGIS Online and can be configured by the administrator of your organization to reflect your organization's workflows. You need to specify the name of a travel mode that is supported by your organization. To get a list of supported travel mode names, use the same GIS server connection you used to access this tool, and run the GetTravelModes tool in the Utilities toolbox. The GetTravelModes tool adds a table, Supported Travel Modes, to the application. Any value in the Travel Mode Name field from the Supported Travel Modes table can be specified as input. You can also specify the value from the Travel Mode Settings field as input. This reduces the tool execution time because the tool does not have to find the settings based on the travel mode name. The default value, Custom, allows you to configure your own travel mode using the custom travel mode parameters (UTurn at Junctions, Use Hierarchy, Restrictions, Attribute Parameter Values, and Impedance). The default values of the custom travel mode parameters model traveling by car. You may want to choose Custom and set the custom travel mode parameters listed above to model a pedestrian with a fast walking speed or a truck with a given height, weight, and cargo of certain hazardous materials. You can try different settings to get the analysis results you want. Once you have identified the analysis settings, work with your organization's administrator and save these settings as part of a new or existing travel mode so that everyone in your organization can run the analysis with the same settings. When you choose Custom, the values you set for the custom travel mode parameters are included in the analysis. Specifying another travel mode, as defined by your organization, causes any values you set for the custom travel mode parameters to be ignored; the tool overrides them with values from your specified travel mode.

Parameter: Impedance

Data Type: GPString
Display Name Impedance
Description: Specifies the impedance, which is a value that represents the effort or cost of traveling along road segments or on other parts of the transportation network. Travel time is an impedance; a car may take 1 minute to travel a mile along an empty road. Travel times can vary by travel mode—a pedestrian may take more than 20 minutes to walk the same mile, so it is important to choose the right impedance for the travel mode you are modeling. Travel distance can also be an impedance; the length of a road in kilometers can be thought of as impedance. Travel distance in this sense is the same for all modes—a kilometer for a pedestrian is also a kilometer for a car. (What may change is the pathways on which the different modes are allowed to travel, which affects distance between points, and this is modeled by travel mode settings.)The value you provide for this parameter is ignored unless Travel Mode is set to Custom, which is the default value.Choose from the following impedance values:TravelTime—Historical and live traffic data are used. This option is good for modeling the time it takes automobiles to travel along roads at a specific time of the day using live traffic speed data where available. When using TravelTime, you can optionally set the TravelTime::Vehicle Maximum Speed (km/h) attribute parameter to specify the physical limitation of the speed the vehicle is capable of traveling.Minutes—Live traffic data is not used, but historical average speeds for automobiles data is used.TruckTravelTime—Historical and live traffic data are used, but the speed is capped at the posted truck speed limit. This is good for modeling the time it takes for the trucks to travel along roads at a specific time. When using TruckTravelTime, you can optionally set the TruckTravelTime::Vehicle Maximum Speed (km/h) attribute parameter to specify the physical limitation of the speed the truck is capable of traveling.TruckMinutes—Live traffic data is not used, but the smaller of the historical average speeds for automobiles and the posted speed limits for trucks are used.WalkTime—The default is a speed of 5 km/hr on all roads and paths, but this can be configured through the WalkTime::Walking Speed (km/h) attribute parameter.Miles—Length measurements along roads are stored in miles and can be used for performing analysis based on shortest distance.Kilometers—Length measurements along roads are stored in kilometers and can be used for performing analysis based on shortest distance.TimeAt1KPH—The default is a speed of 1 km/hr on all roads and paths. The speed cannot be changed using any attribute parameter.If you choose a time-based impedance, such as TravelTime, TruckTravelTime, Minutes, TruckMinutes, or WalkTime, the Measurement Units parameter must be set to a time-based value. If you choose a distance-based impedance, such as Miles or Kilometers, Measurement Units must be distance-based.Drive Time, Truck Time, Walk Time, and Travel Distance impedance values are no longer supported and will be removed in a future release. If you use one of these values, the tool uses the value of the Time Impedance parameter for time-based values or the Distance Impedance parameter for distance-based values.

Display Name Time Zone for Time Windows
Description: Specifies the time zone for the time window values on stops. The time windows are specified as part of TimeWindowStart and TimeWindowEnd fields on stops. This parameter is applicable only when the Use Time Windows parameter is checked (or set to True). The parameter can be specified using one of the following values:Geographically Local—The time window values associated with the stops are in the time zone in which the stops are located. For example, if the stop is located in an area that follows Eastern Standard Time and has time window values of 8 AM and 10 AM, the time window values will be treated as 8 AM and 10 AM in Eastern Standard Time. This is the default value.UTC—The time window values associated with the stops are in the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). For example, if the stop is located in an area that follows Eastern Standard Time and has time window values of 8 AM and 10 AM, the time window values will be treated as 12 PM and 2 PM Eastern Standard Time assuming the Eastern Standard Time is obeying the Daylight Saving Time. Specifying the time window values in UTC is useful if you do not know the time zone in which the stops are located or when you have stops in multiple time zones and you want all the time windows to start simultaneously.
