Output details of a route as a report

Once a route has been calculated, the details of the route (distances, times, costs, emissions) are displayed in the right-hand pane.

To make this information usable outside of PTV Map&Guide, you can also export it as a detailed report. You can either

  • download the report as a PDF file, e.g. to send it by e-mail

  • print it out, e.g. as documentation for the driver or dispatcher

  1. To export the route calculation as a report, click on the <Report> button below the route details.

  2. The route details are then prepared as a PDF document.

  3. The report is then displayed as a preview.

The report has a landscape format and is divided into the following sections:

  1. Map: This area shows the route (blue) on a map. A map section suitable for the landscape format and the map style previously selected in the map view are used.

  1. Stops: This area lists the stops on the route. In addition to the addresses, the results of the settings for the individual stops are displayed as columns:

    • Arrival

    • Departure

    • Stay

    • Travel time from the starting point

    • Driving time

    • Distance traveled from the starting point

    • Distance traveled from the previous stop

    • Loading/unloading at the stop

  1. Costs per leg:
    This section lists the costs incurred proportionally for each leg of the route. The section is divided into two parts:

    • Individual legs: In the first table, the corresponding distance, toll route, route costs, toll costs, ferry and train costs, and the total of these costs are listed in a separate row for each leg.

    • Summary of costs for the stagesIn this summary,

      • the route costs per stage from the previous table are totaled in the route costs column

      • the other columns list the fixed costs per trip (if defined), the stop costs (summed), the ferry and train costs (summed), the time costs, and the toll costs (summed), and the resulting total costs are listed.

  1. Details: This area displays the following information:

    • Route: Start and end point as well as the number of stops on the route

    • Profiles: The vehicle and cost profile selected for the route calculation

    • Distances: The distance traveled during the route and its toll section

    • Costs: The total cost of the route, toll costs and route costs per hour, as well as distance costs per km (both according to the cost profile)

    • Times: The start date and time of the route, the end date and time, total travel time, the proportion of travel time and the proportion of other times (service time, waiting time, etc.)

    • Other: The cost of ferries or trains, and fuel price (according to cost profile)
