2. Pima County’s Building Inspector Routing Apps

3. What is the vehicle routing problem (VRP)? Organizations service orders with a fleet of vehicles. Need to determine which orders should be serviced by each vehicle or inspector. Default behavior is a least-cost solution.

4. Orders

5. Inspectors

6. Routes Default solution is least cost

7. Routes We want a more equal solution

8. Our Model Inspections Table Point Layer Analyze Output Error check and output Directions Geocode Addresses Solve VRP Solve VRP Again

9. Parameters that force equal distribution OvertimeStartTime CostPerUnitOvertime MaxOrderCount MaxTotalTime

10. Automating the Process Python script run on a daily basis Creates directory based on current date

11. Automating the Process Create individual direction files

12. Directions File

13. Automating the Process Create JPEG of all routes

14. JPEG of Routes

15. Create Excel report of all the routes Automating the Process

16. Useful Python Module xlwt Output data to an excel spreadsheet

17. Another Useful Python Module Arcpy.mapping.ExportToJPEG() Save mxd to a JPEG file

18. Routes and Inspections on MapGuide

19. What Does This Mean? DSD inspectors travel 34% fewer miles DSD is saving $197,000 per year on mileage and inspectors’ time Our Street Network is improved by continuous feedback from non-geocoded inspections and addition of turn restrictions This model can be used by other departments

20. Using Esri Navigator Navigator 1.2 for iPad is available now Navigator for Android mid to late April 2016

21. Mobile Map Package Create Mobile Map Package (MMP) in Arcgis Pro 1.2 Symbology important if using your own data Create Separate Locator saved with the MMP Share the MMP with Navigator Users Ability to define Travel Modes (e.g. Walking Time, Trucking Time) Need separate ND without Global Turn delays

22. Create The Package

23. Share The Package

24. On the iPad

26. On iPad Select the Map Package

27. Download the Package

28. The Map is now on the iPad

34. Challenges How to handle addresses that don’t geocode? How to handle addresses that geocode but don’t get assigned an inspector? How many times to run the VRP to get an optimized solution? Can the customer run the VRP manually with different inputs? Web service via web app? Updating the underlying Network Dataset daily/weekly/monthly via a python script

44. Future Use Soft Zones - Done Implement DayOfWeek polygon for scheduling - Done Get Inspector results back into Accela – Working On It Use Inspectors Vacation schedule – Working On It Enhance Symbology of Pima County Map – Working Creation of webpage for Customers to see the status of their inspection – Future Analyze routes periodically using Fleetistics to compare actual vs VRP-generated - Future Train Inspectors on Navigator, including daily Map Updates - Future
