What makes the Pathfinder Routing Engine different from others on the market?
Logistics managers look to minimize the risk of late arrival or missed connections, so the focus must be on factors that insure shipments arrive on time. Such factors include analysis of multiple origination/destination airports, routing to or away from certain airports and/or airlines, adequate connection times to insure that shipments get transferred among planes, possible elimination of multiple carriers, proper equipment, and other numerous other factors. Pathfinder-XML provides a dynamic, optimized routing engine that lets you set objectives, identify those factors that most effect your shipment, and optimize your search such that the results you see are the results that are important to you. The routing engine generates connections dynamically in direct response to user-defined settings. This yields a list of flights that are “scored” for each route, with a higher score indicating a route that better matches your needs relative to other alternatives.
