NETWORK MODEL
Represent how movement actually occurs
Build a network from roads with segment speeds and optional one-way rules so distance and travel time reflect the underlying network.
- Weighted road-network graph from project line layers.
- Distance or travel-time impedance.
- Connectivity diagnostics before operational analysis.
ROUTING
Plan multi-stop movement
Optimise the sequence of stops from a depot and inspect per-leg distance and travel time.
- Nearest-neighbour route construction and 2-opt improvement.
- Optional return-to-depot routes.
- Publish route geometry and export route-leg tables.
HUB & SPOKE
Translate geography into operational metrics
Allocate spokes to hubs and estimate trips, route kilometres, cost and emissions.
- Demand/load fields and vehicle capacity.
- Estimated trip count and round-trip kilometres.
- Cost-per-kilometre and emissions factors for scenario comparison.
DECISION QUESTIONS
Questions this workflow can help investigate
GeoLayers is most useful when the project starts with a clear spatial question. Typical questions for this sector include:
- Which hub should serve each collection or delivery point?
- How do speed, one-way roads and network connectivity change route cost?
- How many trips are required under different vehicle capacities?
- What happens to distance, cost and emissions if hubs or service territories change?
WHY GEOLAYERS
Keep sector-specific work inside a professional GIS foundation
The sector workflow sits on the same project, analysis, mapping and governance foundation as the rest of GeoLayers. That means specialist capability can be combined without creating a disconnected dataset for every task.
Advanced analysis when needed
Move into Earth Observation, GeoML, mobility or simulation when the question requires it.
Outputs built for decisions
Publish maps, dashboards, apps or controlled integrations from the project result.
