Hi to all,

I'd like to know if is possible to calculate the variation altitude in a route with map point, what are the classes, methods?
Is it possible to choose kind of street for a route, what are classes method.
Could you give me an example or remind me to the documentation.

Thank you,

Francesco

Hi Francesco,

The altitude of a poin ? As far as I know the answer is no. Sorry.

Preffered roads for a route ? Yes. Look at Route.Driverprofile, there you set preferred roads and speeds.

Hi Wilfried,

Thank you for your answer.
Yes, i'd like to know if in a route i have many climb and fall(slope variation).
If not is possible in your opinion, can i ask you if
MapPoint Spatial Data Import COM Add-in
MapPoint Spatial Data Import COM Add-in (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms980069.aspx)
can help me to load high-end Geographical Information Systems (GIS)
obtain points altitude.
Am I right?

Hi Francesco,

I never tried it. But the mappoint API stay the same. Possible the data can contain altitudes but again how to access it? I have no idea... I _think_ it is not possible, but if it is I hope someone drops in here.
