Route Planning Method types:
Button Description
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. It can be
practical for slow vehicles. Searching for a short route regardless of
the speed, this route type is rarely practical for normal vehicles.
Gives a quick but fuel efficient route based on the fuel consumption
data given in Green Routing settings (page 77). Travel cost and CO
2
emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take
elevations, curves and traffic conditions into account.
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.
