Itinerary Tool

The Itinerary tool allows the user to compute and visualize routes in MapStore using different supported routing providers, such as GraphHopper.

Note

The Itinerary plugin is not enabled by default. However, it can be configured within application contexts using the desired provider.

By clicking the Itinerary button available in the Side Toolbar, the tool is activated, allowing the user to select destination points and compute the route, which is then displayed on the map

The user can select the starting point and the destination in two ways:

  • Typing the address into the text box
  • Selecting a point on the map using the button

The user can also add an additional destination using the button.

The itinerary can be further customized using the following options:

  • Choose the Travel Mode, either walking or driving
  • Enable Optimize Route to reorder the available routes from fastest to slowest
  • Select one or more options to avoid: Motorways & Highways, Trunk Roads & Major Arterials, Ferry Crossings, Tunnels & Underground Passages, and/or Bridges & Elevated Roads

Once at least two points are defined, the available routes are listed at the bottom of the panel and displayed on the map.

For each listed route, the main path and the estimated travel time are highlighted. The user can also:

  • View the full itinerary using the button

  • Export as GeoJSON using the dropdown menu available through the button

  • Add as layer using the same dropdown menu accessible from the button
