Routing & Paths
The Routing & Paths panel computes shortest paths, K alternative routes, and many-to-many batch routing across the network.
Note
Requires an active OSMnx graph. Travel-time weighting requires travel times from Network Attributes.
Source & Target Nodes
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Source / Target | Path endpoints. The eyedropper buttons pick nodes directly in the viewport. |
| Minimize | Weight to optimize: length, travel time, or elevation impedance. |
| Alpha | Elevation-impedance strength (only shown for that weight). |
Shortest Path
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Calculate Path | Computes the path and reports distance, node/edge counts, and travel time. |
| Summarize | Adds route rise and mean absolute grade. |
| Elevation Profile | Builds a profile curve of the route. |
K Alternative Routes
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| K | Number of alternative routes to compute. |
| Compute K Alternatives | Computes the K shortest distinct routes. |
Batch (Many-to-Many)
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Random OD Pairs | Number of random origin–destination pairs to route. |
| CPU Cores (0=auto) | Parallel workers for the batch. |
| Run Batch Routing | Routes all pairs; reports the reached fraction and mean distance. |
