Long Distance EV Routing

Service version: 1
Last edit: 2024.01.10

Purpose

The Long Distance EV Routing service calculates a route between a given origin and destination, passing through waypoints if they are specified. The route contains charging stops that have been added automatically based on the vehicle's consumption and charging model.

  • Each charging stop results in an additional leg in the route response.
  • Each additional leg contains a chargingInformationAtEndOfLeg element in its leg summary.
  • Both the route summary and the leg summary include a remainingChargeAtArrivalInkWh element.
  • The route summary includes a totalChargingTimeInSeconds element.

The chargingInformationAtEndOfLeg field consists of:

  • target battery charge
  • charging time
  • details about the charging stop

Run this endpoint

You can easily run this and other endpoints. Go to the TomTom API Explorer page and follow the directions.

Differences to calculateRoute

This document assumes familiarity with the Calculate Route service and only describes how calculateLongDistanceEVRoute differs from it.

Prerequisites for Long Distance EV Routing support

There are two important prerequisites needed that differ from the Calculate Route service:

  • The Electric Consumption Model must be set.
  • The Charging Model must be supplied in the request.

Unsupported calculateRoute features

As opposed to the Calculate Route service, the following features are not supported in Long Distance EV Routing:

  • Waypoints
    • Circle waypoints are not supported.
    • The parameter computeBestOrder and the option routeRepresentation=none are not supported.
    • routeType values other than fastest are not supported.
  • alternativeType values other than betterRoute are not supported.
  • travelMode values other than car, motorcycle, bus, or van are not supported.
  • computeTravelTimeFor is not supported.

Deprecation notice

March 15, 2024

  • Value tollRoad for the input parameter sectionType as well as the respective response section type TOLL_ROAD have been deprecated.
  • This section will be withdrawn following a 12 months deprecation period.
  • The planned withdrawal date is March 15, 2025.
  • Following withdrawal, requests for toll road section may result in an HTTP 400 error in the response.

We recommend using toll and toll vignette sections instead.

Request parameters

The following table only describes the parameters of calculateLongDistanceEVRoute that differ from the calculateRoute endpoint.

  • Required parameters must be used or the call will fail.

Required parameters

Description

minChargeAtDestinationInkWh
float

The battery level upon arrival at the destination of the resulting route will be at least this much.
Minimum value: 0.0
Maximum value: maxChargeInkWh

minChargeAtChargingStopsInkWh
float

The desired minimum battery charge level upon arrival at each charging station. However, the remaining charge at the first charging stop may be lower.
Minimum value: 0.0
Maximum value: 0.5 × maxChargeInkWh

Optional parametersDescription

chargingStopsStrategy
string

This feature allows EV drivers to manually choose the charging stops along their itinerary, while optimizing charging times for minimal ETT. Possible values are:

  • automaticFastest: the service automatically generates charging stops that minimize the total ETT, including charging time.

  • manualFastest: the service doesn't add charging stops to the route.

    • It calculates the fastest route visiting charging and non-charging waypoints, optimizing charging times at the former to minimize the total ETT, with respect of the minimal charge at charging stops and destination when possible.
    • Since no additional charging stops are added to the route, it may happen that arrival charges at waypoints and destination are below the corresponding minimal charge, or even null or negative.
    • When a charging stop or the destination is unreachable, the target charge at the previous charging stop, when it exists, is set to 100% of the vehicle's charge capacity.
Default value:automaticFastest

ChargingParameters

Required parameters

Description

batteryCurve
array

A piecewise-constant function which maps a state of charge (SoC) of a battery to the maximum charging power supported for this state of charge. It is used to compute the charging times of the vehicle. It must contain zero to up to 20 (inclusive) JSON objects each containing the properties stateOfChargeInkWh and maxPowerInkW. The stateOfChargeInkWh of each entry in the curve defines the lower bound (included) of the half-open interval this maximum charging power applies to, with the possible exception of the interval corresponding to the lowest SoC, which is implicitly extended towards a state of charge of 0.


The following requirements must be fulfilled:

  • stateOfChargeInkWh must be larger than or equal to zero.

  • None of the stateOfChargeInkWh values from such an object may equal the stateOfChargeInkWh value of any other object.

  • maxPowerInkW must be larger than zero.

If an empty curve is provided, the charging power will be limited solely by the maximum power of the specified connectors and the charging facility's supported charging power.

chargingConnectors
array

Must be a non-empty array of chargingConnector elements. No chargingConnector may be equivalent to another, where equivalent chargingConnector elements:

  • have the same currentType

  • share at least one element of plugTypes

  • have an overlapping voltageRange

chargingConnector.currentType
string

One of the values AC1, AC3 for single- or three-phase alternating current, or DC for direct current.

chargingConnector.plugTypes
array of plugType

A non-empty list of plugType elements. See the plugType values table for possible values of plugType.

Optional parameters

Description

chargingTimeOffsetInSec
integer

A constant time offset in seconds added to the computed charging time at each charging stop planned along the route. If not specified, the default value 60 applies. It must be larger than or equal to zero.

chargingConnector.efficiency
float

Optional efficiency factor applied to the power provided by a charging facility and the maximum charging power for each point of the battery charging curve. If not specified, the default value 1.0 applies. It must be larger than zero and smaller than or equal to one.

chargingConnector.baseLoadInkW
float

An optional base load considered when determining the available charging power. The base load is subtracted from the power provided by the charging facility prior to applying the efficiency factor. If not specified, the default value 0.0 applies. It must be larger than zero.

chargingConnector.maxPowerInkW
float

Sets an upper limit for the charging power. The resulting charging power is the minimum of the charging power supported by the respective charging facility and this value. It must be a positive number or zero, where 0 implies the power is only limited by the charging facility. If not specified, the default value of 0 applies.
Note: If a non-empty battery charging curve is specified, a potentially lower maximum charging power at a given state of charge according to the curve takes precedence over the maximum power specified here when calculating the predicted charging time.

chargingConnector.maxVoltageInV
float

Sets an upper limit for the voltage when charging. The resulting voltage is the minimum of the voltage supported by the respective charging facility and this value. It must be a positive number or zero, where 0 implies the voltage is only limited by the charging facility. If not specified, the default value of 0 applies.

chargingConnector.maxCurrentInA
float

Sets an upper limit for the current when charging. The resulting amperage is the minimum of the amperage supported by the respective charging facility and this value. It must be a positive number or zero, where 0 implies the amperage is only limited by the charging facility. If not specified, the default value of 0 applies.

chargingConnector.voltageRange
object

Specifies a voltage range as a right-open interval for the connector, defaulting to the range [0, infinity) if not specified.
It must contain the fields minVoltageInV and maxVoltageInV specifying minimal (included) and maximal (excluded) voltage values.

  • minVoltageInV must be a positive number or zero.

  • maxVoltageInV must be a number greater than minVoltageInV or 0, which is treated as infinity.

Note: Explicitly specifying the voltage range of a connector may be necessary when the vehicle supports multiple connectors with the same current type (typically DC) and plug type, with each connector supporting different maximum charging powers depending on the voltage.
