Route optimization guides#

What Is Route Optimization?
Understand how route optimization reduces miles, saves time, and increases delivery capacity.
How Route Optimization Works
Learn how optimizers evaluate constraints like travel time, schedules, and capacity.
Time Windows & Scheduling
How to route with customer delivery windows, service times, and driver working hours.
Multiple Vehicles (Fleet Routing)
Optimize across multiple drivers and assign stops across vehicles using dispatching modes.

Dispatching, Tracking & Execution#

Route optimization is only valuable if routes are executed correctly. These guides explain how TrackRoad handles dispatching, live driver updates, and proof of delivery.

Live Dispatching
Dispatch optimized routes and monitor drivers in real time.
Driver Tracking
Track vehicle locations and route progress during execution.
Proof of Delivery (POD)
Capture delivery confirmation, stop history, and accountability.

Developer API documentation#

TrackRoad provides REST APIs for routing and logistics integrations. Use your X-API-Key (TrackServiceKey) and call APIs directly without REST login/logout.

Route Optimization API (Reference Overview)
REST + SOAP overview: dispatching, time windows, multi-vehicle optimization and constraints.
Dispatch API
The core optimization endpoint that turns vehicles + stops into optimized routes.
Geocoding API
Convert addresses into coordinates with match confidence scoring (MatchCode).
Routing API
Use Route to generate directions route.

FAQ#

Do I need to login to use the REST API?
No. Modern TrackRoad REST calls use your X-API-Key (TrackServiceKey) from your TrackRoad account. REST Login/Logout exists for backward compatibility only.
Where can I find the complete REST schema?
Swagger is the source of truth. Open Swagger UI at ts6.trackroad.com/swagger/ui/index.
What if stops are missing or unassigned?
This usually means constraints are infeasible: time windows too strict, vehicle working hours too short, or insufficient vehicles/capacity. Add vehicles, widen windows, increase TimeOut, or reduce service time.
What topics does the TrackRoad Knowledge Center cover?
The Knowledge Center covers route optimization, delivery routing, time windows, multi-vehicle fleet routing, dispatching, driver tracking, proof of delivery, and TrackRoad REST API documentation.
