Description

Calculates a route matrix given the following required parameters: DeparturePositions and DestinationPositions. CalculateRouteMatrix calculates routes and returns the travel time and travel distance from each departure position to each destination position in the request. For example, given departure positions A and B, and destination positions X and Y, CalculateRouteMatrix will return time and distance for routes from A to X, A to Y, B to X, and B to Y (in that order). The number of results returned (and routes calculated) will be the number of DeparturePositions times the number of DestinationPositions. Your account is charged for each route calculated, not the number of requests. Requires that you first create a route calculator resource. By default, a request that doesn't specify a departure time uses the best time of day to travel with the best traffic conditions when calculating routes. Additional options include:
  • Specifying a departure time using either DepartureTime or DepartNow. This calculates routes based on predictive traffic data at the given time. You can't specify both DepartureTime and DepartNow in a single request. Specifying both parameters returns a validation error.
  • Specifying a travel mode using TravelMode sets the transportation mode used to calculate the routes. This also lets you specify additional route preferences in CarModeOptions if traveling by Car, or TruckModeOptions if traveling by Truck.

-DepartNow <Boolean>
Sets the time of departure as the current time. Uses the current time to calculate the route matrix. You can't set both DepartureTime and DepartNow. If neither is set, the best time of day to travel with the best traffic conditions is used to calculate the route matrix.Default Value: falseValid Values: false | true
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-DeparturePosition <Double[][]>
The list of departure (origin) positions for the route matrix. An array of points, each of which is itself a 2-value array defined in WGS 84 format: [longitude, latitude]. For example, [-123.115, 49.285].Depending on the data provider selected in the route calculator resource there may be additional restrictions on the inputs you can choose. See Position restrictions in the Amazon Location Service Developer Guide.For route calculators that use Esri as the data provider, if you specify a departure that's not located on a road, Amazon Location moves the position to the nearest road. The snapped value is available in the result in SnappedDeparturePositions.Valid Values: [-180 to 180,-90 to 90]
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesDeparturePositions
-DepartureTime <DateTime>
Specifies the desired time of departure. Uses the given time to calculate the route matrix. You can't set both DepartureTime and DepartNow.

Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.
