Car Route Planner Plugin

Mô tả

The route planner can calculate different values for car routes around the world, such as route length, driving time, fuel amount and cost.

Main use cases:

  1. Routing for motorists (recreation or business trips on own or rented car)
  2. Calculation of estimated cost of your service depending on route length (transport logistics, shipping, moving companies, truck freight, delivery, intercity taxi, transfer, and etc.)
  3. Routing from an arbitrary point to your tourist site (recreation center, camping, hotel) with a simple web form.

Other use cases are also possible. The plugin has many settings and can be adapted to other scenarios.

Modes

The plugin has two modes. These modes are switched on the plugin settings page.

By default, the plugin works in minimal mode:

  • the results of route calculation are displayed on the plugin developers website.
  • there are no additional settings.

Advanced mode:

  • the results of route calculation are displayed inside iframe on your website.
  • after iframe, the hyperlink to the plugin developer’s site is displayed.
  • additional settings are available.

How it Works

Technically speaking, the plugin is a bridge to web service www.drivebestway.com, which uses OSM data for routing.

Unlike other similar plugins, Google Maps is not used here. The routing is performed with open source routers, such as OSRM and Graphhopper.

Hỏi đáp

How to create own price formula?

When composing a formula, you can use the following variables:

  • Length – Route length
  • DrivingTime – Driving time in minutes
  • FuelConsumption – Fuel consumption
  • FuelAmount – Amount of fuel required for the entire route
  • FuelPrice – Unit price of fuel
  • FuelCost – Fuel cost for the entire route

You can also use the mathematical functions: min, max, round.

Example of formula: max(150, FuelCost * 4 + 100)

How fuel cost is calculated?

The interface uses abstract term “fuel”, so that you or your user can substitute the price of gasoline, diesel or LPG based on your choice.

The gasoline price is used by default.

How driving time is calculated?

The speed allowed by traffic rules (according to OSM data) on each specific route point is used for the calculation.

You can setup extra speed limits in the shortcode configurator.

Can I display multiple shortcodes on one page?

You can display as many shortcodes as you like on one page.

It all seems to work at first, but they were unable to realize the custom cost. None of the formulas they provide work. I spent hours on it. It doesn’t work.
