# Custom Models | ||
|
||
The request body parameter `custom_model` allows setting specific parameters influencing the edge weightings during | ||
route calculation. | ||
|
||
This parameter is available for directions requests only on profiles that have been created using the required encoder | ||
option set at graph build time. **This feature is still in experimental state and is currently not available on our | ||
public API for any profile**. You can use this feature on your [own openrouteservice instance](/run-instance/) | ||
by [enabling it for the profile](/run-instance/configuration/engine/profiles/build.md#encoder-options) in the | ||
`encoder_options`. | ||
|
||
The `custom_model` parameter is a JSON object, the following example shows the structure within a request body for the | ||
directions endpoint: | ||
|
||
```json | ||
{ | ||
"preference": "custom", | ||
"coordinates": [ | ||
[ | ||
8.681495, | ||
49.41461 | ||
], | ||
[ | ||
8.687872, | ||
49.420318 | ||
] | ||
], | ||
"custom_model": { | ||
"speed": [ | ||
{ | ||
"if": true, | ||
"limit_to": 100 | ||
} | ||
], | ||
"priority": [ | ||
{ | ||
"if": "road_class == MOTORWAY", | ||
"multiply_by": 0 | ||
} | ||
], | ||
"distance_influence": 100 | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Available parameters | ||
|
||
| Parameter | Type | Description | | ||
|----------------------|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | ||
| `distance_influence` | Number | Time saved in seconds to require for each kilometer of [detour accepted](#weighting-function), determining [distance influence factor](#weighting-function) | | ||
| `speed` | Array | Set of [rules](#speed-and-priority-rules) determining [speed factor](#weighting-function) | | ||
| `priority` | Array | Set of [rules](#speed-and-priority-rules) determining [priority factor](#weighting-function) | | ||
| `areas` | Object | Map of [GeoJSON Features](#areas) used in area-based [rules](#speed-and-priority-rules) | | ||
|
||
## Basic principle | ||
|
||
Custom models invoke a special weighting function for each edge in the graph and replaces the `shortest` or `fastest` | ||
weightings normally used during calculations with a combined weighting function that takes into account the custom model | ||
parameters. | ||
|
||
The priority weightings of openrouteservice for foot and bike profiles (that represent preference of designated | ||
footpaths or designated bicycle paths over car roads and so on) can be combined "on top" of the custom model weighting. | ||
Therefore, possible values for the `preference` parameter of a route request with a custom model are `custom` and | ||
`recommended`. If a request is made with the `shortest` or `fastest` preference AND a custom model value, the preference | ||
value will be IGNORED. | ||
|
||
## Weighting function | ||
|
||
The weighting function for each edge is calculated as follows: | ||
|
||
weight = distance / (speed * `speed factor` * `priority factor`) + distance * `distance influence factor` | ||
|
||
where `speed factor`, `priority factor` and `distance influence factor` are values derived from the respective | ||
parameters of the custom model, and distance and speed are values stored in the graph for each edge. | ||
|
||
The `distance_influence` parameter is used to calculate the `distance influence factor` that influences the weight of | ||
the edge based on the travel distance. If set to zero, the distance will not be taken into account in the weighting | ||
function. If set to a value greater than zero, the distance will be multiplied by the derived factor before being added | ||
to the weight. The result of this is that a ratio of preference between distance and speed can be set. The value | ||
provided in the custom model is used such that it corresponds to the required time saved in seconds per kilometer of | ||
detour. If you e.g. set `distance_influence` to 60, that means a faster route by travel time is only returned if it | ||
saves at least a minute for every additional kilometer of distance travelled, therefore a detour to take the highway | ||
instead of ordinary roads that adds, say, 2 kilometers, is only returned as "better" route if this saves at least 2 | ||
minutes of time. | ||
|
||
The `speed factor` and the `priority factor` are multiplied with the edge speed. Both are calculated based on the rules | ||
provided in the corresponding parameters `speed` and `priority` in the custom model, the difference being that the | ||
`speed factor` also changes the travel time computation, while the `priority factor` is only used to influence the | ||
weight of the edge during route computation and does not change the travel time. Both parameters expect an array of | ||
objects, where each object is a rule consisting of a condition and an operation to be applied. These are described in | ||
more detail in the next section. | ||
|
||
## Speed and Priority Rules | ||
|
||
The parameters `speed` and `priority` are arrays of rules that are applied to the edge speed and priority, respectively. | ||
All rules within the arrays are applied in the order they are provided. Rules are defined as objects of the following | ||
structure: | ||
|
||
```json | ||
{ | ||
"operation_key": "operation_value", | ||
"condition_key": "condition_value" | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Operations | ||
|
||
The `operation_key` is a string with two possible values. The `operation_value` is a number. | ||
|
||
| `operation_key` | `operation_value` | | ||
|-----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------| | ||
| `multiply_by` | Factor to multiply with travel speed, e.g. `0`, `0.5`, etc. | | ||
| `limit_to` | Speed limit in km/h, e.g. `70` | | ||
|
||
If the key is `multiply_by`, the value is interpreted as a factor that gets multiplied to the speed stored on the edge | ||
for determining the weight of the edge. | ||
|
||
If the rule is in the `speed` array, the factor is also applied to the speed value used in the travel time calculation, | ||
so a value of `0.5` would mean to travel at half the normal speed on the affected edges. | ||
|
||
If the rule is in the `priority` array, the factor is only applied to the weight of the edge, not to the time | ||
calculation, and you can think of the number as a factor determining how favorable the affected edge is. A `0` would | ||
mean to avoid the edge completely, a `1` would mean indeterminate; any number in between can denote degrees of | ||
favorability, smaller numbers meaning less favorable. | ||
|
||
If the key is `limit_to`, the value is interpreted as a maximum speed that can be travelled on the affected edges. Edges | ||
with a higher speed will have their speeds adjusted, edges with a lower travel speed stored in the graph will not be | ||
affected by this rule. | ||
|
||
### Conditions | ||
|
||
The `condition_key` is a string with the possible values `if`, `else_if` and `else`. `else_if` and `else` require a | ||
preceding rule with `if` or `else_if` as condition key, and are applied only if the preceding rule's condition did NOT | ||
match. | ||
|
||
The `condition_value` can be a string or boolean value. If it is a string, it can either have the form | ||
`in_[AREA_NAME]` (see [section below](#areas) for details) OR describe a logical statement that can evaluate as true or | ||
false. The logical statement can be a simple comparison of a variable and a value, e.g. `road_class == MOTORWAY`, or a | ||
more complex statement using Java boolean operators, e.g. | ||
`max_width <= 2.2 && (road_environment == TUNNEL || roundabout)`. | ||
|
||
The variables that can be used in those statements are called `encoded values`, and different ones are available for | ||
different profiles. The available `encoded values` can be found in the response to the [status endpoint](/api-reference/endpoints/status/), in the array | ||
`profiles.<PROFILE NAME>.encoded_values`. Below is a list of example `encoded values` and their possible values that are | ||
available. Note that this list is incomplete and the available variables depend on the profile in question. | ||
|
||
| name | Type | Description | | ||
|--------------------|-----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | ||
| `road_class` | Enum | MOTORWAY, TRUNK, PRIMARY, SECONDARY, TRACK, STEPS, CYCLEWAY, FOOTWAY, ... | | ||
| `road_environment` | Enum | ROAD, FERRY, BRIDGE, TUNNEL, ... | | ||
| `road_access` | Enum | DESTINATION, DELIVERY, PRIVATE, NO, ... | | ||
| `surface` | Enum | PAVED, DIRT, SAND, GRAVEL, ... | | ||
| `smoothness` | Enum | EXCELLENT, GOOD, INTERMEDIATE, ... | | ||
| `toll` | Enum | NO, ALL, HGV | | ||
| `roundabout` | Boolean | Whether edge is part of a roundabout | | ||
| `get_off_bike` | Boolean | Whether edge is marked as "requiring to get off bike" | | ||
| `max_speed` | Numerical | Max speed in km/h | | ||
| `max_height` | Numerical | Max height in m | | ||
| `max_width` | Numerical | Max width in m | | ||
|
||
Enum type encoded values can be used with the `==` and `!=` operators, while numerical encoded values can be used with | ||
the | ||
`==`, `!=`, `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=` operators. Boolean encoded valued do not require an operator, but can be used with the | ||
`==`, `!=` and `!` operators. | ||
|
||
### Areas | ||
|
||
Area-based rules are defined by using a `condition_value` in the form `in_[AREA_NAME]` in the `priority` ond/or `speed` | ||
arrays and providing a corresponding named object in the `areas` object of the custom model. | ||
|
||
Each area object is required to be a GeoJSON `Feature` object. The `bbox` member and other foreign members such as | ||
`properties` are NOT supported. The `geometry` member of the feature object must be of `"type": "Polygon"`. | ||
|
||
The following is an example of a custom model with an area-based rule that sets the priority to zero (avoid completely) | ||
for all edges within the area defined by the polygon: | ||
|
||
```json | ||
{ | ||
"priority": [ | ||
{ | ||
"if": "in_custom_area_1", | ||
"multiply_by": 0 | ||
} | ||
], | ||
"areas": { | ||
"custom_area_1": { | ||
"type": "Feature", | ||
"geometry": { | ||
"type": "Polygon", | ||
"coordinates": [ | ||
[ | ||
[ | ||
8.7062144, | ||
49.4077481 | ||
], | ||
[ | ||
8.7068045, | ||
49.4108196 | ||
], | ||
[ | ||
8.7132203, | ||
49.4117201 | ||
], | ||
[ | ||
8.7139713, | ||
49.4084322 | ||
], | ||
[ | ||
8.7062144, | ||
49.4077481 | ||
] | ||
] | ||
] | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Further Examples | ||
|
||
Below are some examples of custom models that illustrate how the `custom_model` parameter can be used. | ||
|
||
#### A general speed limit of 80 km/h, e.g. for car profiles | ||
|
||
```json | ||
{ | ||
"speed": [ | ||
{ | ||
"if": true, | ||
"limit_to": 80 | ||
} | ||
] | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
#### Try to avoid motorways and tunnels (even more), avoid applying both rules to motorways within tunnels | ||
|
||
```json | ||
{ | ||
"priority": [ | ||
{ | ||
"if": "road_class == MOTORWAY", | ||
"multiply_by": 0.7 | ||
}, | ||
{ | ||
"else_if": "road_environment == TUNNEL", | ||
"multiply_by": 0.5 | ||
} | ||
] | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
#### Avoid having to get off the bike | ||
|
||
```json | ||
{ | ||
"priority": [ | ||
{ | ||
"if": "get_off_bike", | ||
"multiply_by": 0 | ||
} | ||
] | ||
} | ||
