The Network extension enhances the value of advanced tools and models created with the ArcGIS Network Analyst extension for ArcGIS Desktop GIS by putting them to work in repeatable enterprise applications, improving productivity and increasing data analysis capacity for your organisation. You can deliver Web services for:
- Multipoint optimised routing for saving time and fuel on deliveries, inspections, and service appointments
- Time-sensitive, turn-by-turn driving directions for improving customer satisfaction through accurate and prompt deliveries or scheduling of multiple service responses
- Allocation of service areas for establishing jurisdictional responsibility or potential coverage across a street network based on road conditions and other characteristics such as speed limits or time of day
- Determining the fastest fixed route to the closest facility or providing multiple location response scenarios for dispatching the closest resource or getting to the closest facility based on travel distance or time
