Routino : Output
================
There are three different formats of output from the router, HTML, GPX
(GPS eXchange) XML format and plain text with a total of five possible
output files:
* HTML route instructions for each interesting junction.
* GPX track file containing every node.
* GPX route file with waypoints at interesting junctions.
* Plain text description with the interesting junctions.
* Plain text file with every node.
The "interesting junctions" referred to above are junctions where the
route changes to a different type of highway, more than two highways of
the same type meet, or where the route meets but does not take a more
major highway. When the route follows a major road this definition
eliminates all junctions with minor roads.
The output files are written to the current directory and are named
depending on the selection of shortest or quickest route. For the
shortest route the file names are "shortest.html",
"shortest-track.gpx", "shortest-route.gpx", "shortest.txt" and
"shortest-all.txt", for the quickest route the names are
"quickest.html", "quickest-track.gpx", "quickest-route.gpx",
"quickest.txt" and "quickest-all.txt".
The HTML file and GPX files are written out according to the selected
language using the translations contained in the translations.xml
configuration file.
HTML Route Instructions
-----------------------
The HTML route instructions file contains one line for each of the
interesting junctions in the route and one line for the highway that
connects them.
An example HTML file output is below (some parts are missing, for
example the style definitions):
Shortest Route
...
Shortest Route
| 51.524677 -0.127896
|
Start: | At Waypoint, head South-East
|
Follow: | Russell Square for 0.391 km, 0.5 min [0.4 km, 0 minutes]
...
|
Total: | 6.3 km, 5 minutes
|
Stop: | Waypoint
|
The coordinates are included in the file but are not visible because of
the style definitions.
GPX Track File
--------------
The GPX track file contains a track with all of the individual nodes
that the route passes through.
An example GPX track file output is below:

Shortest route
Shortest route between 'start' and 'finish' waypoints

GPX Route File
--------------
The GPX route file contains a route (ordered set of waypoints) with all
of the interesting junctions that the route passes through.
An example GPX route file output is below:

TRIP001

...
FINISH
Total Journey 6.3 km, 5 minutes
Text File
---------
The text file format contains one entry for all of the interesting
junctions in the route and is intended to be easy to interpret.
An example text file output is below:

The text file output contains a header (indicated by the lines starting
with '#') and then one line for each junction. Each line contains the
information for the route up to that point and the direction to go
next. For each of the lines the individual fields contain the
following:
Latitude - Location of the point (degrees)
Longitude - Location of the point (degrees)
Section Distance - The distance travelled on the section of the journey
that ends at this point (defined on this line).
Section Duration - The duration of travel on the section of the journey
that ends at this point (defined on this line).
Total Distance - The total distance travelled up to this point.
Total Duration - The total duration of travel up to this point.
Point Type - The type of point; either a waypoint Waypt or junction
Junct.
Turn - The direction to turn at this point (missing for the first point
since the journey has not started yet and the last point because it has
finished). This can take one of nine values between -4 and +4 defined
by: 0 = Straight, +2 = Right, -2 = Left and +/-4 = Reverse.
Bearing - The direction to head at this point (missing for the last point
since the journey has finished). This can take one of nine values
between -4 and +4 defined by: 0 = North, +2 = East, -2 = West and +/-4
= South.
Highway - The name (or description) of the highway to follow (missing on
the first line).
The individual items are separated by tabs but some of the items
contain spaces as well.
All Nodes Text File
-------------------
The all nodes text file format contains one entry for each of the nodes
on the route.
An example all nodes text file output is below:

The all nodes text file output is similar to the text file output
except that a line is printed for each of the nodes rather than just
the interesting junctions. For each of the lines the individual fields
contain the following:
Latitude - Location of the point in degrees.
Longitude - Location of the point in degrees.
Node - The internal node number and an indicator "*" if the node is a
super-node.
Type - The type of point; a waypoint Waypt, junction Junct, change of
highway Change or intermediate node Inter.
Segment Distance - The distance travelled on the segment defined on this
line.
Segment Duration - The duration of travel on the segment defined on this
line.
Total Distance - The total distance travelled up to this point.
Total Duration - The total duration of travel up to this point.
Speed - The speed of travel on the segment defined on this line (missing
on the first line).
Bearing - The direction that the segment defined on this line travels in
degrees (missing on the first line).
Highway - The name (or description) of the highway segment (missing on
the first line).
