Routing Preferences
Arvee supports various routing settings which allow you to indicate your preferences when routing between two destinations.
To configure your rig settings, click your email address in the upper-right hand corner of the application after logging in. Then, click on the Settings menu item.
This will bring up the Settings Dialog. Click the “Routing” item on the toolbar to bring up the routing preferences screen.
Available Routing Preferences
If no route is available that avoids a particular stated preference, under some circumstances we may route through that preference anyway. For example, if you have avoided dirt roads but the destination requires a dirt road to get to.
Drive Time
The drive time setting in Arvee is a powerful one, which allows you to quickly and accurately identify destinations that should be reachable from a given starting point under normal driving conditions.
For more information on Drive Time ranges, visit the Drive Time / Distance Estimates page.
The drive time radius also is used to help you at a glance identify legs of a trip’s itinerary that exceed your preferences. These warnings can be found in a trip’s itinerary highlighted in red.
Carrying Propane
The Carrying Propane option instructs the router that your vehicle has propane on board, and as such is subject to various restrictions on what routes can be taken for legal and safety reasons. For example, some tunnels do not permit vehicles that have propane on board to use them. By enabling this setting the router will make best efforts to route around such restrictions automatically.
Avoid Ferries
Enabling this setting will instruct the router to prefer trips that do not use a Ferry for transportation.
Avoid Tolls
Enabling this setting will instruct the router to avoid roads that charge a toll.
Avoid Dirt Roads
Enabling this setting will instruct the router to prefer routes that do not require a dirt road.
Avoid U-Turns
Enabling this setting will instruct the router to prefer routes that do not require a u-turn.
Avoid Tunnels
Enabling this setting will instruct the router to prefer routes that avoid the use of tunnels.
