Interface nokia.maps.routing.Route

Interface Summary

This interface defines a route. A route describes a path through the route network between at least two waypoints (start and end). It is calculated by a back-end server and includes a list of route links and maneuvers. A maneuver describes an action a person needs to perform to follow a route. For example, it can contain an instruction to turn right or left or an indication of the direction of travel, etc. A maneuver applies to a route link, which is a part of a route that has a unique id (allocated by the server) and consists of a list of points/locations (defined in terms of their geographic coordinates).

Field Summary
nokia.maps.routing.RouteLeg[] legs This property holds an array that represents the partition of the route into legs between the different waypoints.
nokia.maps.routing.Mode mode This property holds an object that represents the route mode used in the route calculation.
String routeId This property holds a unique identifier of the route.
nokia.maps.geo.Shape shape This property holds a route shape object as a polyline.
nokia.maps.routing.Waypoint[] waypoints This property holds a list of waypoints that have been defined when requesting a route calculation.
Field Detail
This property holds an array that represents the partition of the route into legs between the different waypoints.
This property holds an object that represents the route mode used in the route calculation.
String routeId
This property holds a unique identifier of the route. The value is calculated from the route links and can be used to reproduce any previously calculated route. Thus, routeId is not a temporary ID, but can be used as a persistent reference to the route.
This property holds a route shape object as a polyline. Its accuracy depends on the resolution specified in mpp (meters per pixel) when requesting the route. In some use cases (such as Web portals), only the route's shape is required, without the nested structure and detailed knowledge of the links and their ids; the shape does not need to be acquired by traversing the route's links, but can be represented using this attribute at route level.
This property holds a list of waypoints that have been defined when requesting a route calculation. The first waypoint is defined as the start of the route; the last waypoint marks the destination. Any waypoints in between the two define "via points".
