ComputeRouteMatrix

rpc ComputeRouteMatrix(ComputeRouteMatrixRequest) returns (RouteMatrixElement)

Takes in a list of origins and destinations and returns a stream containing route information for each combination of origin and destination.

NOTE: This method requires that you specify a response field mask in the input. You can provide the response field mask by using the URL parameter $fields or fields, or by using the HTTP/gRPC header X-Goog-FieldMask (see the available URL parameters and headers). The value is a comma separated list of field paths. See this detailed documentation about how to construct the field paths.

For example, in this method:

  • Field mask of all available fields (for manual inspection): X-Goog-FieldMask: *
  • Field mask of route durations, distances, element status, condition, and element indices (an example production setup): X-Goog-FieldMask: originIndex,destinationIndex,status,condition,distanceMeters,duration

It is critical that you include status in your field mask as otherwise all messages will appear to be OK. Google discourages the use of the wildcard (*) response field mask, because:

  • Selecting only the fields that you need helps our server save computation cycles, allowing us to return the result to you with a lower latency.
  • Selecting only the fields that you need in your production job ensures stable latency performance. We might add more response fields in the future, and those new fields might require extra computation time. If you select all fields, or if you select all fields at the top level, then you might experience performance degradation because any new field we add will be automatically included in the response.
  • Selecting only the fields that you need results in a smaller response size, and thus higher network throughput.
ComputeRoutes

rpc ComputeRoutes(ComputeRoutesRequest) returns (ComputeRoutesResponse)

Returns the primary route along with optional alternate routes, given a set of terminal and intermediate waypoints.

NOTE: This method requires that you specify a response field mask in the input. You can provide the response field mask by using URL parameter $fields or fields, or by using an HTTP/gRPC header X-Goog-FieldMask (see the available URL parameters and headers). The value is a comma separated list of field paths. See detailed documentation about how to construct the field paths.

For example, in this method:

  • Field mask of all available fields (for manual inspection): X-Goog-FieldMask: *
  • Field mask of Route-level duration, distance, and polyline (an example production setup): X-Goog-FieldMask: routes.duration,routes.distanceMeters,routes.polyline.encodedPolyline

Google discourage the use of the wildcard (*) response field mask, or specifying the field mask at the top level (routes), because:

  • Selecting only the fields that you need helps our server save computation cycles, allowing us to return the result to you with a lower latency.
  • Selecting only the fields that you need in your production job ensures stable latency performance. We might add more response fields in the future, and those new fields might require extra computation time. If you select all fields, or if you select all fields at the top level, then you might experience performance degradation because any new field we add will be automatically included in the response.
  • Selecting only the fields that you need results in a smaller response size, and thus higher network throughput.

Specifies the vehicle information.

toll_passes[]

TollPass

Encapsulates information about toll passes. If toll passes are provided, the API tries to return the pass price. If toll passes are not provided, the API treats the toll pass as unknown and tries to return the cash price. Applies only to the DRIVE and TWO_WHEELER RouteTravelMode.

RouteTravelAdvisory

Contains the additional information that the user should be informed about, such as possible traffic zone restrictions.

Fields
toll_info

TollInfo

Contains information about tolls on the route. This field is only populated if tolls are expected on the route. If this field is set, but the estimatedPrice subfield is not populated, then the route contains tolls, but the estimated price is unknown. If this field is not set, then there are no tolls expected on the route.

speed_reading_intervals[]

SpeedReadingInterval

Speed reading intervals detailing traffic density. Applicable in case of TRAFFIC_AWARE and TRAFFIC_AWARE_OPTIMAL routing preferences. The intervals cover the entire polyline of the route without overlap. The start point of a specified interval is the same as the end point of the preceding interval.

Example:

polyline: A ---- B ---- C ---- D ---- E ---- F ---- G
speed_reading_intervals: [A,C), [C,D), [D,G).
fuel_consumption_microliters

int64

The predicted fuel consumption in microliters.

route_restrictions_partially_ignored

bool

Returned route may have restrictions that are not suitable for requested travel mode or route modifiers.

transit_fare

Money

If present, contains the total fare or ticket costs on this route This property is only returned for TRANSIT requests and only for routes where fare information is available for all transit steps.

RouteTravelMode

A set of values used to specify the mode of travel. NOTE: WALK, BICYCLE, and TWO_WHEELER routes are in beta and might sometimes be missing clear sidewalks, pedestrian paths, or bicycling paths. You must display this warning to the user for all walking, bicycling, and two-wheel routes that you display in your app.

Enums
TRAVEL_MODE_UNSPECIFIED No travel mode specified. Defaults to DRIVE.
DRIVE Travel by passenger car.
BICYCLE Travel by bicycle.
WALK Travel by walking.
TWO_WHEELER Two-wheeled, motorized vehicle. For example, motorcycle. Note that this differs from the BICYCLE travel mode which covers human-powered mode.
TRANSIT Travel by public transit routes, where available.

RoutingPreference

A set of values that specify factors to take into consideration when calculating the route.

Enums
ROUTING_PREFERENCE_UNSPECIFIED No routing preference specified. Default to TRAFFIC_UNAWARE.
TRAFFIC_UNAWARE Computes routes without taking live traffic conditions into consideration. Suitable when traffic conditions don't matter or are not applicable. Using this value produces the lowest latency. Note: For RouteTravelMode DRIVE and TWO_WHEELER, the route and duration chosen are based on road network and average time-independent traffic conditions, not current road conditions. Consequently, routes may include roads that are temporarily closed. Results for a given request may vary over time due to changes in the road network, updated average traffic conditions, and the distributed nature of the service. Results may also vary between nearly-equivalent routes at any time or frequency.
TRAFFIC_AWARE Calculates routes taking live traffic conditions into consideration. In contrast to TRAFFIC_AWARE_OPTIMAL, some optimizations are applied to significantly reduce latency.
TRAFFIC_AWARE_OPTIMAL Calculates the routes taking live traffic conditions into consideration, without applying most performance optimizations. Using this value produces the highest latency.

SpeedReadingInterval

Traffic density indicator on a contiguous segment of a polyline or path. Given a path with points P_0, P_1, ... , P_N (zero-based index), the SpeedReadingInterval defines an interval and describes its traffic using the following categories.

Fields
start_polyline_point_index

int32

The starting index of this interval in the polyline.

end_polyline_point_index

int32

The ending index of this interval in the polyline.

Union field speed_type.

speed_type can be only one of the following:

speed

Speed

Traffic speed in this interval.

Speed

The classification of polyline speed based on traffic data.

Enums
SPEED_UNSPECIFIED Default value. This value is unused.
NORMAL Normal speed, no slowdown is detected.
SLOW Slowdown detected, but no traffic jam formed.
TRAFFIC_JAM Traffic jam detected.

TollInfo

Encapsulates toll information on a Route or on a RouteLeg.

Fields
estimated_price[]

Money

The monetary amount of tolls for the corresponding Route or RouteLeg. This list contains a money amount for each currency that is expected to be charged by the toll stations. Typically this list will contain only one item for routes with tolls in one currency. For international trips, this list may contain multiple items to reflect tolls in different currencies.
