Hi there, Yale had suggested I try using the routing extension for a piece of functionality which I have been trying to build. I am working in the pavement management industry and we need a way to mark out roads as a sort of work order for the contractor. Essentially the contractor wants to select a road and say we are going to stripe this road for 5 miles or stripe road A from mile marker 5 to mile marker 25, etc.
I am currently using a fully licensed version of MapSuite Desktop V3.0 and have built something similiar to this in our product using the 2.0 version of desktop edition. Essentially what I have done is to select a begin and end point and then try to follow the road between those points and highlight it. However, this is not easy as the road names seem to change wildly within the data so there is nothing to really help determine that you are on the same road.
Is there anything in the routing extension that will allow us to do something along these lines? Any examples that I can look at, etc.?
Does the routing extension allow routing based on an address?
Thanks.
