  • Preview Data Sources on the map, and upload new data source types
  • Use Data Sources in custom street modifications for road congestion, slope-adjusted biking times, ridehail service, custom cycling level of traffic stress, and more (experimental)
  • Edit reroute modifications more easily, with less distracting auto-zoom behavior

Using a network bundle for the first time with the newly released routing engine (v6.7) may take a few moments, as a fresh network is built.

Additional improvements include:

We have a few upgrades and bugfixes to announce this month:

  • Streamlined transit mode selector and support for extended GTFS route_type values (👋 🚝 🚎).
  • Re-enabled JSON download of the scenario used in a regional analysis.
  • Clearer errors when attempting to analyze a deleted project, scenario, or bundle, and better logical checks to prevent this error in the first place.
  • Cleaner directional markers along modification alignments.

We're excited to announce these updates in the Conveyal platform and routing engine v6.5. This release makes it easier to:

  • Group modifications into different combinations, using a new scenario table:
    Scenario table with different modifications activated

  • Create aggregation areas with better progress reporting and validation, using the new Data Sources panel. In an upcoming release, this panel will also handle spatial datasets for custom origins, destinations, and modifications.
  • Save and Undo changes to modifications.
  • Inspect travel times to specific destinations, with the improved destination marker (click in the travel time legend)
  • Avoid certain timing errors on connections experiencing high latency to our central servers.
