Overview

About

Maintained by Josiah ParryCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Bindings to the ArcGIS Routing REST API (https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/routing/) for solving network analysis problems. Plan routes and generate driving directions, measure travel time and distance with origin-destination cost matrices, build service areas, find the closest facilities, route fleets of vehicles, and snap GPS tracks to roads. Both synchronous requests and asynchronous geoprocessing jobs are supported, returning simple features ('sf') objects ready for analysis and mapping.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("arcgisrouting", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("r-arcgis/arcgisrouting")

Development version from r-arcgis/arcgisrouting. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-arcgisrouting

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-arcgisrouting

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
