SearchAlongRouteUtils
Utility class designed to optimize search along a route by providing optimal points for this scenario. This reduces network usage by limiting the number of points sent to the API (which can reach several thousand on long routes) and enhances search results for APIs lacking detailed road graph data.
Example statistics for different routes:
Oslo – Malaga (3600 km):
Original: 43,666 points
Optimized with SearchAlongRouteUtils: 8,230 points
Optimized with TurfTransformation (tolerance 0.0): 43,647 points
Optimized with TurfTransformation (tolerance 0.01): 411 points
Paris – Quimper (564 km):
Original: 7,081 points
Optimized with SearchAlongRouteUtils: 1,282 points
Optimized with TurfTransformation (tolerance 0.0): 7,079 points
Optimized with TurfTransformation (tolerance 0.01): 55 points
London Brixton – London Harlesden (16 km):
Original: 903 points
Optimized with SearchAlongRouteUtils: 469 points
Optimized with TurfTransformation (tolerance 0.0): 903 points
Optimized with TurfTransformation (tolerance 0.01): 3 points
Functions
