| Geofencing in Mappoint Is there a possibility to receive all the point on a route or a point every x m? I need to write an application which does some basic geofencing. I receive a location (decimal coordinates) of a truck and must check if that point is on the route or x km of . To do that I need a lot of points on a route, more then the once I get in the direction object. Is it possible to retrieve such a list?         |

Hi, you have al the interception points when you calculate a route. a workaround for what you want is to calculate all points by pretending if all points are connected with a strait line. of course all roads in between are not strait, but I think that is the best you can do. Maybe others have better ideas?

The directions have locations associated with them, but these are intended for a "best view" - ie. there is no guarantee that the point is on the route. If your route is a "shortest" route and not a "fastest" route, then you could add frequent rest stops - every minute or so. The rest stops in the list of the directions have their locations set correctly. Richard
