Maxoptra adds custom speed zone functionality to routing platform
The latest version of the Maxoptra dynamic scheduling and route optimisation platform includes new functionality for applying custom speed zones that users have learned of through experience. According to Maxoptra: “The new Speed Zone functionality allows users to apply correction factors for different parts of a route, for example, city centres or complex intersections where traffic may be heavier and delays incurred. Additional features also included in the new release comprise new order processing functionality and improved user interfaces.”
Maxoptra already automatically includes averaged historic traffic data to calculate routes based on the type of vehicle and the time of day. However, as specific vehicles move at different speeds on different roads and at different times of day, Maxoptra now allows users to customise driving speeds that are applied when preparing a complex delivery schedule or service programme.
