Profile of the vehicle

Several vehicle profiles can be defined (van, truck, truck with restrictions, etc.). Every vehicle must be assigned to some profile. Is recommended to use one profile for multiple vehicles with the similar parameters. From the entered profiles, a distance matrix is calculated, which contains information about the distances and travel times between locations.

You can create a new profile by pressing the “Add” button.

Parameters:

• Name – Profile name. This name is then assigned to individual vehicles.
• Speed factor – Maps includes predefined speeds for seven road types. You can make roads faster or slower by this parameter.
• Profile – You can choose from two basic profiles “Car” / “Truck”.
• Route preference [short/fast] – You can set system preferences for fast or short routes using the bar. Zero corresponds to short routes, hundred value is fast. The costeffective route is roughly reached for 80. The settings can then be checked for any location.
• Toll roads avoidance [never/always] – You can regulate the use of paid roads (0 – never use paid roads, 100 – never avoid paid roads)
• Max weight [kg] – Setthe total vehicle weight in kilograms. Routes will be run on roads with permissible passage of vehicles with maximum total weight.
• Max height [cm] – Height adjustment in centimetres. Routes will be run on roads with authorized passage of vehicles at the maximum entered height.
• Max width [cm] – Adjusts the width of the vehicle in centimetres. Routes will be run on roads with authorized passage of vehicles with the maximum width specified.
• Max length [cm] – Setting the vehicle length in centimetres. The routes will be run on roads with authorized passage of vehicles with a maximum length.

Profile settings can be verified on the route from the depot to any location (or from location to the depot).
Select a location from the list and press the “View” button to display the route from the depot to the selected location (or from location to the depot).
Using the context menu on the map, you can display individual prohibition signs (“Show restrictions”), including their technical description. The description appears as a tooltip above the specific restriction. It is also possible to display actual speeds on the map (“Show actual speeds”). The speed limit and the actual speed are only displayed when the map is zoomed in closer.
Also you could see the route on the different web map.

• Each profile can be changed freely. Each time you save the change, the saved distances and the travel times for the changed profile are deleted.
  Thus, the distance matrix for this profile will be recalculated during planning.

• Profiles can be deleted by pressing the “Delete” button below the list of available profiles. However, the profile can only be removed if no existing vehicle is referenced.
