Class Route

java.lang.Object
  ps2.Route

public class Route
extends Object

A Route is a path that traverses arbitrary GeoSegments, regardless of their names.

Routes are immutable. New Routes can be constructed by adding a segment to the end of a Route. An added segment must be properly oriented; that is, its p1 field must correspond to the end of the original Route, and its p2 field corresponds to the end of the new Route.

Because a Route is not necessarily straight, its length -- the distance traveled by following the path from start to end -- is not necessarily the same as the distance along a straight line between its endpoints.

Lastly, a Route may be viewed as a sequence of geographical features, using the getGeoFeatures() method which returns a List.

Specification Fields

• start - : GeoPoint // location of the start of the route
• end - : GeoPoint // location of the end of the route
• startHeading - : angle // direction of travel at the start of the route, in degrees
• endHeading - : angle // direction of travel at the end of the route, in degrees
• geoFeatures - : sequence // a sequence of geographic features that make up this Route
• geoSegments - : sequence // a sequence of segments that make up this Route

Derived Fields

• length : real // total length of the route, in miles
• endingGeoSegment : GeoSegment // last GeoSegment of the route

Constructor Detail

Route

public Route(GeoSegment gs)

Requires:

gs != null

Effects:

Constructs a new Route.

Method Detail

getStart

public GeoPoint getStart()

Returns:

location of the start of the route

getEnd

public GeoPoint getEnd()

Returns:

location of the end of the route

getEndingGeoSegment

public GeoSegment getEndingGeoSegment()

Returns:

the last GeoSegment of the route

getStartHeading

public double getStartHeading()

Returns:

direction (in compass heading) of travel at the start of the route, in degrees

getEndHeading

public double getEndHeading()

Returns:

direction of travel at the end of the route, in degrees

getLength

public double getLength()

Returns:

total length of the route, in miles. NOTE: this is NOT as-the-crow-flies, but rather the total distance required to traverse the route. These values are not necessarily equal.

addSegment

public Route addSegment(GeoSegment gs)

Creates a new route that is equal to this route with gs appended to its end.

Returns:

a new Route r such that r.end = gs.p2 && r.endHeading = gs.heading && r.length = this.length + gs.length

Requires:

gs != null && gs.p1 = this.end

getGeoFeatures

public List<GeoFeature> getGeoFeatures()

Returns a List of GeoFeature objects. The concatenation of the GeoFeatures, in order, is equivalent to this route. No two consecutive GeoFeature objects have the same name.

Returns:

a List of GeoFeatures such that

      this.start        = a.get(0).start
   && this.startHeading = a.get(0).startHeading
   && this.end          = a.get(a.length - 1).end
   && this.endHeading   = a.get(a.length - 1).endHeading
   && this.length       =  sum (0 <= i < a.size) . a.get(i).length
   && for all integers i .
          (0 <= i < a.size - 1 => (a.get(i).name != a.get(i+1).name &&
                                       a.get(i).end   = a.get(i+1).start))

getGeoSegments

public List<GeoSegment> getGeoSegments()

Returns a List of GeoSegment objects. The concatentation of the GeoSegments, in order, is equivalent to this route.

Returns:

a List of GeoSegments such that

      this.start        = a.get(0).p1
   && this.startHeading = a.get(0).heading
   && this.end          = a.get( a.size - 1 ).p2
   && this.endHeading   = a.get( a.size - 1 ).heading
   && this.length       =  sum (0 <= i < a.size) . a.get(i).length

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Returns:

true iff (o instanceof Route) && (o.geoFeatures and this.geoFeatures contain the same elements in the same order).

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

a valid hash code for this.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

a string representation of this.
