Waypoints
You can use waypoints to define the locations on the map that the route must go through. A waypoint can be either a StopOver (for example, start or destination) or a PassThrough. A valid CalculateRoute request must include at least two StopOver waypoints.
You specify waypoints with the
waypoint parameter. The Routing API v7 offers the following options to specify waypoints along a requested route: - The GeoWaypointParameterType type specifies a position with geological coordinates. You can specify an optional radius value to request a roughly located position.
- The
NavigationWaypointParametertype in combination with StreetPosition specifies a reference to a particular street and its name. - The
NavigationWaypointParametertype in combination with LinkPosition specifies an exact reference to a link. This option allows for even more precision by means of theSpotvalue which specifies the fractional distance between the link's reference-node and the non-reference node.
For more information on waypoints and examples, see WaypointParameterType.
