OR-Tools, VROOM & Nextplot: Open source vehicle routing and visualization
OR-Tools and VROOM are popular open source options for solving vehicle routing problems (VRPs). Getting visual (and shareable) feedback when developing decision algorithms is critical. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to plot stops, clusters, routes, and more on a customizable map with just a few commands? Enter: Nextplot, an open source CLI tool for visualizing JSON input/output data. Use Nextplot with OR-Tools or VROOM to plot points on a PNG and interactive HTML. See a demo of this tool in action with OR-Tools and VROOM. Learn more at www.nextmv.io
