Syntax

VehicleRoutingProblem (in_network, {version})
ParameterErläuterungDatentyp
in_network

The network dataset or service that will be used for the network analysis. The argument can be specified using one of the following options:

To use a network dataset, the network must have at least one travel mode.

To use a portal URL, you must be signed in to the portal with an account that has routing privileges.

When using ArcGIS Online or an ArcGIS Enterprise portal whose routing services are configured using ArcGIS Online as the in_network, solving the analysis will consume credits and will be subject to certain limits, such as on the number of allowed inputs. Learn more about credit consumption and analysis limits in network analysis.

String
version

The schema version to use in the analysis. The parameter should be specified using the VehicleRoutingProblemSchemaVersion enumeration.

An updated VehicleRoutingProblem object schema was introduced in ArcGIS Pro 2.7 to provide enhanced usability and to more closely match the schema of Vehicle Routing Problem layers introduced in ArcGIS Pro 2.6.

It is recommended that all new analyses use schema version Two when possible. However, the schema version Two is not currently supported for portal URL network data sources. If the analysis will use a portal URL for the network data source or the script needs to be compatible with software versions prior to ArcGIS Pro 2.7, use schema version One.

The default is schema version One.

Eigenschaften

EigenschaftErläuterungDatentyp
allowAutoRelocate
(Lesen und schreiben)

Specifies whether inputs with existing network location fields can be automatically relocated at solve time to ensure valid, routable location fields for the analysis. If the value is True, points located on restricted network elements and points affected by barriers will be relocated to the closest routable location. If the value is False, network location fields will be used as is, even if the points are unreachable, and this may cause the solve to fail.

Even if the value is False, inputs with no location fields or incomplete location fields will be located at solve time.

The default is True.

This property affects locating for all input types. To change this property for individual input types, use the setLocateSettingsOverrides method.

Learn more about network location fields and how inputs are located on the network

Setting this property returns an error if the network data source is ArcGIS Online, an ArcGIS Enterprise portal that does not support using network location fields, or a portal running a version of ArcGIS Enterprise older than 11.0.

Boolean
allowSaveLayerFile
(Lesen und schreiben)

Specifies whether to permit saving the analysis result as a layer file using the saveAsLayerFile method on the result object. A value of True indicates that you can save a layer file. A value of False indicates that you cannot save a layer file. The default is True if the analysis references a network dataset and False if it references a portal service. Saving a layer file may slow down the analysis when the analysis references a portal service.

Boolean
allowSaveRouteData
(Lesen und schreiben)

Specifies whether to permit saving the analysis result to a .zip file using the saveRouteData method on the result object. A value of True indicates that you can save the route data. A value of False indicates that you cannot save the route data. The default is True if the analysis references a network dataset and False if it references a portal service. Saving the route data may slow down the analysis when the analysis references a portal service.

Boolean
defaultDate
(Lesen und schreiben)

The default date for time field values that specify a time of day without including a date. The default is None, which indicates that all date time fields include date and time values.

DateTime
directionsDistanceUnits
(Lesen und schreiben)

The units to use when reporting travel distance in the output turn-by-turn directions. The property is returned and set as a member of the DistanceUnits enumeration and is applicable only when the returnDirections property is True. The default is the units of the distance attribute in the travel mode used for the analysis.

Object
directionsLanguage
(Lesen und schreiben)

The language in which the output turn-by-turn directions text will appear. The property is returned and set as a string using one of the two- or five-character language codes representing supported directions languages. The list of available directions languages can be obtained from the arcpy.nax.ListDirectionsLanguages function. The default value is either en (English) or the language of the currently activated language pack. The property is applicable only when the returnDirections property is True.

String
directionsStyle
(Lesen und schreiben)

The style to be used for the output turn-by-turn directions text. The property is returned and set as a member of the DirectionsStyle enumeration and is applicable only when the returnDirections property is True.

The default value is Desktop.

Object
distanceUnits
(Lesen und schreiben)

The units to use when reporting the travel distance in the analysis output. Regardless of the units of the cost attributes in the network dataset, the output will be transformed to and reported in the units set in this property. The property is returned and set as a member of the DistanceUnits enumeration. The default is DistanceUnits.Kilometers.

Object
excessTransitFactor
(Lesen und schreiben)

Rates the importance of reducing excess transit time of order pairs. Excess transit time is the amount of time exceeding the time required to travel directly between the paired orders. Excess time can be caused by driver breaks or travel to intermediate orders and depots.

The property is returned and set as a member of the Importance enumeration. The default is Importance.Medium.

When set to Importance.Low, the solver tries to find a solution that minimizes overall solution cost, regardless of excess transit time. This setting is commonly used with courier services. Since couriers transport packages as opposed to people, they don't need to worry about ride time. Using this setting allows the couriers to service paired orders in the proper sequence and minimize the overall solution cost.

When set to Importance.Medium, the solver looks for a balance between reducing excess transit time and reducing the overall solution cost.

When set to Importance.High, the solver tries to find a solution with the least excess transit time between paired orders at the expense of increasing the overall travel costs. It makes sense to use this setting if you are transporting people between paired orders and you want to shorten their ride time. This is characteristic of taxi services.

Object
ignoreInvalidLocations
(Lesen und schreiben)

Specifies whether invalid input locations will be ignored. A value of True indicates that invalid input locations will be ignored so that the analysis will succeed using only valid locations. A value of False indicates that invalid locations will not be ignored and will cause the analysis to fail.

Boolean
networkDataSource
(Schreibgeschützt)

The full catalog path to the network dataset or the URL of the service being used for the analysis.

String
overrides
(Lesen und schreiben)

Hinweis:

This property is for internal use only.

String
returnDirections
(Lesen und schreiben)

Specifies whether turn-by-turn directions will be generated. A value of True indicates that turn-by-turn directions will be generated when solving the analysis. A value of False indicates that directions will not be generated. Generating directions may slow down the analysis. The default is False.

Boolean
returnStopShapes
(Lesen und schreiben)

When set to True, the solver generates point shapes for the output stops. When set to False, the output stops are returned in table format. The default is False.

This parameter does not apply and is ignored when the analysis uses the VehicleRoutingProblemSchemaVersion.Two schema version.

Vorversion:

Routing services based on portals running versions of ArcGIS Enterprise older than 10.8 do not support returning stop shapes. The method returns a ValueError exception if you set returnStopShapes to True, and the service does not support this option.

Boolean
routeShapeType
(Lesen und schreiben)

The type of shape to be generated to represent output routes. The routes are always calculated along the network; however, you can choose to represent them by shapes that do not reflect the network paths. The property is returned and set as a member of the RouteShapeType enumeration. The default is RouteShapeType.TrueShapeWithMeasures.

Object
searchQuery
(Lesen und schreiben)

Vorversion:
This property has been superseded by the searchSources property, which was introduced at ArcGIS Pro 3.0. The searchQuery property continues to work to maintain backward compatibility with existing scripts, but it is recommended that new scripts use the searchSources property instead.

When locating inputs on the network, this property specifies a query to restrict the search to a subset of the features within a source feature class. This is useful if you don't want to find features that may be unsuited for a network location. For example, if you don't want to locate on highway ramps, you can define a query to exclude them.

The parameter value is specified as a list with nested lists, with one entry per network source. Each inner list is composed of two values indicating the name of the network source and the SQL expression used as the query for that source. An empty string, "", indicates no query for a particular source.

For example, the value [["Streets", "ROAD_CLASS <> 3"], ["Streets_ND_Junctions", ""]] specifies an SQL expression for the Streets source feature class and no expression for the Streets_ND_Junctions source feature class.

If a network source is not included in the list, it is interpreted to have no query. The value [["Streets", "ROAD_CLASS <> 3"]] is equivalent to [["Streets", "ROAD_CLASS <> 3"], ["Streets_ND_Junctions", ""]].

By default, no query is used for any source.

Learn more about locating inputs on the network

For more information on SQL syntax, see SQL reference for query expressions used in ArcGIS.

Setting this property returns an error if the network data source is ArcGIS Online or a portal running a version of ArcGIS Enterprise older than 11.0.

List
searchSources
(Lesen und schreiben)

When locating inputs on the network, this property specifies the list of network sources to be used, and, optionally, a query to restrict the search to a subset of the features within a source feature class.

The default value is to locate on all network sources except system junctions and override junctions created by running the Dissolve Network tool. By default, no query is used for any source.

The parameter value is specified as a list with nested lists, with at most one entry per network source. Each inner list is composed of two values indicating the name of the network source and the SQL expression used as the query for that source.

Possible values for the network source component are the string feature class names of edge and junction sources that participate in the network. Sources in the list will be used for locating, and sources not in the list will not.

Queries are useful if you don't want to find features that may be unsuited for a network location. For example, if you don't want to locate on highway ramps, you can define a query to exclude them. For the query component, see SQL reference for query expressions used in ArcGIS for correct syntax. An empty string, "", indicates no query for a particular source.

For example, the value [["Streets", "ROAD_CLASS <> 3"], ["Streets_ND_Junctions", ""]] specifies that inputs can be located on both the Streets and Streets_ND_Junctions sources. A SQL expression for the Streets source feature class forbids inputs from locating on streets where the ROAD_CLASS field has a value of 3. No query is used for the Streets_ND_Junctions source feature class. A value of [["Streets", "ROAD_CLASS <> 3"]] indicates that only the Streets source feature class should be used for locating, and Streets_ND_Junctions should not. Additionally, a query is applied to Streets.

This property affects locating for all input types. To change this property for individual input types, use the setLocateSettingsOverrides method.

Setting this property returns an error if the network data source is ArcGIS Online or a portal running a version of ArcGIS Enterprise older than 11.0.

String
searchTolerance
(Lesen und schreiben)

The maximum search distance to use when locating the input features on the network. The property is returned and set as a double, and the units of this value are accessed through the searchToleranceUnits property. The default is 5000.

This property affects locating for all input types. To change this property for individual input types, use the setLocateSettingsOverrides method.

Vorversion:

Setting this property returns an error if the network data source is a portal running a version of ArcGIS Enterprise older than 11.0.

Double
searchToleranceUnits
(Lesen und schreiben)

The units of the searchTolerance property. The property is returned and set as a member of the DistanceUnits enumeration. The default is DistanceUnits.Meters.

This property affects locating for all input types. To change this property for individual input types, use the setLocateSettingsOverrides method.

Vorversion:

Setting this property returns an error if the network data source is a portal running a version of ArcGIS Enterprise older than 11.0.

Object
spatiallyClusterRoutes
(Lesen und schreiben)

When set to True, the orders assigned to a route will be spatially clustered. Clustering orders tends to keep routes in smaller areas and reduce how often route lines intersect one another; yet, clustering can increase overall travel times. When set to False, the solver will not prioritize spatially clustering orders, and the route lines might intersect. Use this option if route zones are specified.

The default is True.

Boolean
timeUnits
(Lesen und schreiben)

The units to use when reporting the travel time in the analysis output. Regardless of the units of the cost attributes in the network dataset, the outputs will be transformed to and reported in the units set in this property. The property is returned and set as a member of the TimeUnits enumeration. The default is TimeUnits.Minutes.

Object
timeWindowFactor
(Lesen und schreiben)

Rates the importance of honoring time windows.

The property is returned and set as a member of the Importance enumeration. The default is Importance.Medium.

When set to Importance.Low, the solver places more importance on minimizing drive times and less on arriving at stops on time. You may want to use this setting if you have a growing backlog of service requests. For the purpose of servicing more orders in a day and reducing the backlog, you can choose this setting even though customers may be inconvenienced with your late arrivals.

When set to Importance.Medium, the solver balances the importance of minimizing drive times and arriving within time windows.

When set to Importance.High, the solver places more importance on arriving at stops on time than on minimizing drive times. Organizations that make time-critical deliveries or that are very concerned with customer service would choose this setting.

Object
timeZoneForTimeFields
(Lesen und schreiben)

Indicates whether the time fields in the input data should be interpreted as local time at the input locations or as coordinated universal time (UTC). The property is returned and set as a member of the TimeZoneUsage enumeration. The default is TimeZoneUsage.LocalTimeAtLocations.

Object
travelMode
(Lesen und schreiben)

The travel mode to use for the analysis.

VRP only solves with a time-based impedance, so only time-based impedance travel modes are available.

The value is returned and set as an arcpy.nax.TravelMode object, but it can also be set using the string name of the travel mode or a string containing the valid JSON representation of a travel mode. The default is the default travel mode defined on the network dataset used for the analysis.

count (input_type)

Returns the number of rows added for an input type.

fieldMappings (input_type, {use_location_fields}, {list_candidate_fields})

Generates an NAClassFieldMappings dictionary that maps the field names of the input type to arcpy.nax.NAClassFieldMap objects that allow you to map fields from your input data to the properties of the solver. The dictionary can be used as input to the load method's field_mappings argument.

fieldNames (input_type, {use_location_fields})

Get a list of field names supported by the specified input type.

insertCursor (input_type, field_names, {append})

Establishes a write cursor on the specified input type. This cursor can be used to add rows directly to the input.

load (input_type, features, {field_mappings}, {append}, {max_features})

Set input features to use for the analysis.

setLocateSettingsOverrides (input_type, {search_sources}, {allow_auto_relocate}, {search_tolerance}, {search_tolerance_units})

Set locate settings for a designated input class, overriding the default locate settings specified for the analysis. This is useful if you want to use different rules to locate different inputs. For example, in an OD cost matrix analysis, you can use a search query that applies to the input origins only, if that query should not apply to the input destinations and barriers.

Using this method, you can override the values of the searchSources, allowAutoRelocate, searchTolerance, and searchToleranceUnits properties for the designated input class.

When this argument is set to True, the returned field mappings dictionary will contain network location fields. The default is False; the field mapping dictionary will not include network location fields.

(Der Standardwert ist False)

Boolean
list_candidate_fields
[list_candidate_fields,...]

Use this parameter to map additional, non-default fields from your input data into your analysis inputs. For example, if your input feature class contains a field named MyField, and you want this field to be included in your analysis inputs, pass the MyField field object to the list_candidate_fields parameter. MyField will be included in the returned field mapping dictionary and automatically mapped. When you call the load method using these field mappings, MyField will be included in the analysis inputs along with all the default fields. In many cases, these extra fields will be passed to the analysis output as well.

The parameter should be specified as a list of arcpy.Field objects, which can be obtained from a given feature class or table using the arcpy.ListFields function.
