Hi Suchith,

Vicky Vergara and I developed a vehicle routing problem solver as part of a city wide trash collection planning system that Ingesur developed for the city of Montevideo UY. Our repository is here:

https://github.com/woodbri/vehicle-routing-problems/tree/release-v5

This is an interesting problem because we linked ORSM into our solver code and used OSM data for the street network data. We worked extensively with Ingesur and they were an excellent partner in this project (I've cc'd Fernando @ Ingesur). This solver deals with many real world issues, like container and truck volume limits, pickup time windows, some trucks that can only pickup containers on the right side of the vehicle, trucks can not make u-turns at containers on streets, etc.

We looked at using pgRouting and OSRM for computing routes and picked OSRM for performance and the fact that this was easiest for the clients to update the street network as needed and then to reload OSM into OSRM.

We integrated the functionality in to postgresql as an extension, but I believe the final solution actually ended up using a command line interface that we used to develop the code under.

Anyway, if you have additional questions, we would be happy to address them.

Best regards,
  -Steve

This is a request for help from those who are working in Intelligent
Transport Systems area. I am currently on a secondment to Transport
Systems Catapult [1] from the University of Nottingham and as part of
my research , one aspect i am looking into is the impact of Open
Technologies and Open Data in ITS in accelerating innovation
opportunities.


I will appreciate if anyone who is working in ITS (Transport
planners, City governments) esp. using Open Technologies and Open
Data (examples from across the world are welcome )  if they can
please email  me at [email protected] on their project
details (if you can send me the websites of the project  or links to
various open datasets that you are using etc), it will be greatly
appreciated and very helpful for my research.

Thanks again for your kind help on this matter.


Best wishes,
