4.3.4.2 Route Planning Method Types
Gives a quick route if you can travel at or near the speed limit on all roads. Usually
the best selection for fast and normal cars.
Gives a short route to minimise the distance to travel. Usually practical for
pedestrians, cyclists or slow vehicles. Searching for a short route regardless of the
speed, this route type is rarely practical for normal vehicles.
Combines the benefits of Fast and Short: The software calculates as if it was
calculating the Fast route, but it takes other roads as well to save fuel and reduce
CO
2
emissions.
Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult manoeuvres. With this option,
you can make your software to take, for example, the motorway instead of a series
of smaller roads or streets.
The times and projected CO
2
emissions displayed using these options are indicative only. Actual
time and emissions will vary.
