GeoOptimization Server: The planning and route optimization web service
GeoOptimization Server, a route optimization web service, adds planning and geographical optimization features to existing information systems.
Can be easily integrated with existent systems like SAP, Primavera, PHC, Oracle, SAGE, Dynamics, SalesForce or others: multi-constraint optimization, geocoding, redistricting and routing.
The main benefits are optimized routes (delivery, pick-ups, both, sales visits, maintenance visits), sales territories balancing and call center location support…
Geo-Optimization Server has the following functionalities:
Geocoding
Determinate LAT/LONG coordinates based on an address, an address file or directly from a database.
Routes Optimization
Calculate the best routes based on multi restrictions (resources, clients, street network and more).
Routing
Calculate the best path between two or more locations depending of the traffic patterns
Redistricting
Territories balancing functionality to allocate your customers to different strategic distribution areas so that you can assign routes evenly based on different retail outlets or brands.
Drive-Time Areas
Calculate Drive time areas from one or more points based on kilometres or time

Technical integration
Thanks to TourSolver Server’s user-friendliness, the integrator does not need to be an optimization expert. The web service is available on any kind of technical platform and allows the integrator to carry on working on his current environment.
Two operation modes are available:
● The http requests transmit to TourSolver Server the commands and data as an XML flow. The results are also sent back as an XML flow.
● The file mode works through a predefined folder architecture (Default, In, Out) that contains input files and results files. For each new demand, a specific file is created in the In and Out folders, making possible to stack several optimization that will then follow on each other.
Whatever the operation mode used, TourSolver Server has optimization demands queue management. The demands are taken into account in their stacking order. The load can be distributed across multiple processing nodes. The multi-country setup can handle international contexts of use.
