Calculation of distances between cities and laying a route by car

Any trip by car requires you to first measure the distance between cities and plot a car route on the map. To do this quickly, simply and conveniently allows a special online service "Calculation of distances between cities".

The distance calculation service is designed to determine the route and distance between settlements, as well as the duration of the journey and fuel consumption. With it, you can calculate the distance between the cities of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan and other CIS countries, as well as Europe.

The calculation of the optimal route is performed in accordance with road maps and consists in finding the shortest, in terms of time or distance, path between two points.

Using the appropriate settings, you can build a car route according to your wishes and needs. The service allows you to exclude specific settlements and sections of the road from the calculation, as well as list intermediate points through which it is necessary to lay a route on the map. You can specify the driving speed for each type of road to get a more accurate timing.

What is good about this service?

To calculate distances between cities online, you only need access to the Internet, without installing programs, without being tied to a specific computer, anywhere where there is access to the network.

calculates international distances

You can calculate the distance on the roads not only within a certain country, but also find out the distance between cities different countries if you are planning an overseas trip.

gives accurate calculation of distances

provides additional calculation settings

You can set additional parameters for the calculation (bypassing countries, cities and highways, including certain settlements in the route, indicating the speed on different roads), and as a result, create the best route taking into account all the criteria.

Laying routes and calculating distances by road will help when planning a trip on vacation or on a business trip. If you are going on a trip abroad using your own transport, then in the service you can calculate the distance between countries.

Distance and Fuel Calculation is a useful travel cost calculation tool that you can use to easily calculate the cost of a route. Specify fuel consumption and price to calculate the amount of fuel needed for the entire route and its cost.

Going on vacation in your car, you get an excellent opportunity to drive around the nearby attractions. Here again, online calculation of distances and routes is useful, you can lay out in advance detailed itinerary travel and plan (in terms of time and financial costs) trips to interesting objects and cities near your vacation spot.

Using the calculation of the route between cities will also be useful when sending cargo using a transport company. With the help of the distance calculator you will be able to determine the mileage to the destination and estimate the cost of delivery in accordance with the carrier's tariffs. If you yourself carry out cargo transportation, the calculation of distances is simply necessary for you.

So, what does the distance calculation service offer:

You can build an optimal route, look at the map on the map and, if necessary, print the result of the calculations. You can find the distance between two points directly, or change the direct route by specifying waypoints to bypass or, conversely, add and create a route with waypoints.

Find out the distance between settlements

How to calculate the route between cities

To calculate the distance between settlements, start typing the name of the starting point of your route in the "City from" field. Select the desired city from the drop-down list. In the same way, fill in the "City where" field and click on the "Calculate" button.

The word "city" is used only as the name of the form fields, here you can specify any settlement and, for example, calculate the distance between villages or towns, etc.

As a result, you will get the shortest distance between the two settlements that you specified. The route will be displayed on the map and in the table. The table lists the sections of the route (tracks) and indicates the distance between cities along the roads on each segment of the laid route, as well as the time and total length of the path.

Calculation of distance and fuel

As mentioned above, the service allows you not only to determine the distance between two points directly, but also to plot a route with intermediate points and exceptions specified by you. To calculate the route of movement by car according to your parameters, open the "Advanced settings for calculating distances" window.

Calculation of car distances with additional parameters

Fill in the fields of additional settings you need.

Here you can specify the countries and cities that you want to travel around, then they will be excluded from final route. And also list through which settlements you need to pass so that they are added to the calculation car route. Leave these fields blank if you only need to know the distance between two cities, just enter your departure and arrival points in the appropriate form fields.


Calculation of road distance between cities

In the advanced options window, you can change the driving speed for different types of roads to get more exact time on my way.


How to calculate the fuel consumption of a car? Fill in the form fields with your data, indicate in them the average fuel consumption of your car and the price of fuel. The service will calculate the volume and cost of fuel needed for this route and display in the table the calculation of the consumption of gasoline or diesel fuel in liters and rubles.

Online fuel consumption calculation

Well, the last setting, it allows you to calculate the optimal route by time or length. Set the value you need: "Fastest route" to get a road with the minimum travel time or "Shortest route" to calculate the shortest route by distance.

Route calculation

After the additional parameters are set, click the "Calculate" button again to calculate the distance and time for the new route.

If you want to remove specific sections of the route from your route, check the box next to them in the route calculation table and click the "Exclude marked" button. The online program for calculating distances between cities will create a route around the specified routes.


Distance in kilometers between cities

The online service "Calculation of distance between cities" offers the calculation of distances between cities by highways RF, Europe and CIS. It allows you to calculate the distance and fuel consumption in seconds, plot the shortest route and, if necessary, print the result.

In addition to determining the distance between cities, the calculator shows the following travel parameters:

  • Route mileage from point A to point B (cities in Russia, CIS, Europe, Ukraine, Belarus);
  • Average travel time;
  • Intermediate points between the main stops;
  • Marks of hotels, hotels, cafes and gas stations on the map;
  • Fuel consumption depending on consumption per 100 km, gasoline costs;
  • Detailed route with display on the map;
  • List of intermediate stopping points;
  • Names of federal highways;
  • A complete list of driving directions on federal and regional highways.

Fuel consumption of a car and determining the distance between cities

In addition to the fact that the service accurately determines the distance between cities, it also plots a detailed route between cities on the map. To determine the above parameters, fill in the fields "From", "To", as well as fuel consumption per 100 km of travel and speed on the road (highways, regional, territorial), then click the "Calculate" button.

Also in the form, you can mark the cities and towns where you plan to stop or stop along the way (intermediate points). The route from one city to another will be built based on all the entered data. Additionally, by specifying the cost of fuel, the application also calculates the consumption of gasoline for the entire journey.

In addition to the results of calculating distances, the application will plot a route in the form of a blue line on the Yandex map and show the exact distance from one city (point) to another. Above the map you will see the following parameters: distance, travel time, as well as gasoline consumption. Below is a detailed list with directions of movement, taking into account federal highways. Using the buttons on the map, you can zoom in, as well as switch to satellite mode to determine your current location.

Use the "Intermediate points, speed" option to determine the route taking into account the required stops, as well as calculate the traffic parameters for each segment of the route and a separate city separately. On the right there are checkboxes for selecting hotels, hotels, cafes and gas stations to see their location on the map.

Note:

The online service for calculating distances and routes works on the basis of accurate satellite data. Distances in kilometers are determined by an algorithmic method using the coordinates of roads, settlements, cities (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, other European countries).

The application is provided by the well-known site www.avtodispetcher.ru, and also takes data from the Yandex Directory of organizations that are marked on the map, so the information displayed is up-to-date and correct.

Who benefits from the service? As well as other services for calculating the route

This online application is useful not only for truckers, but also for ordinary car owners for planning their long journeys, trips around the cities of Russia. Also, this online distance calculation is useful in determining the cost of transportation or, for example, delivery of goods by courier.
On our site there is also an extended version online service for detailed construction of the route of travel and determining the distance between cities. The developer of this professional module is Flagma Calculation.Ru.

Note:

You can calculate the distance between cities for free using our website. Calculation of the distance between cities is performed by the shortest paths. At the same time, the fuel consumption is shown in parallel depending on the type and brand of the car.

The calculation can be useful in such situations:

  • planning a private vacation trip with the whole family by car or determining the best route for a business trip on a business trip. The calculator will help calculate the cost of fuel on the way (we know the average fuel consumption and its price);
  • professional drivers long distance help to lay a route between cities;
  • Calculator options are useful for shippers when determining the cost of transportation services (kilometers are determined by the calculator, tariffs are given by the carrier);

How to use the distance calculator?

It will not be difficult to set and lay a route between cities. To do this, you will need to enter the starting point along the route in the "From" field. Created convenient way choice of cities. The field of arrival along the given route is filled in the same way. After selecting the cities, the button for the calculation is pressed.

A map will open with a plotted route and an indication of the starting and ending points of movement, cities. They are marked with red markers. The route by car between cities is drawn with a red line. As background information The following information is provided on top of the map:

  • estimated route length;
  • travel time;
  • how much fuel is required for the trip.
  • what type of roads are on the route;
  • the route is divided into separate sections, indicating the length and travel time.

This route data can be printed and received in a convenient A4 format. If necessary, you can make adjustments to the calculation. Set the parameters you need for the trip and re-request to make a calculation.

Additional settings allow you to make adjustments to the speed calculation for each type of road surface. There is an option to choose transit settlements.

The fuel calculator will be very useful. Substitute in it the parameters of the car (average fuel consumption) and the current average prices for 1 liter of fuel. This will allow you to find out the required amount of fuel and its cost.

Alternative routing methods

If you have a road atlas handy, then you can use it to approximately determine the route on the map. Curvimeter, if available, will help to determine a fairly approximate distance between cities.

Finding out the time spent on the trip will be more difficult. It will be necessary to distribute the entire route into fragments with the same type of roads. Knowing how fast you can go on each class of roads and knowing the length of such sections, you can calculate the travel time.

Data from reference books, atlases on distances between cities can also come to the rescue. Please note that in such tables, as a rule, large cities are indicated.

Algorithms for calculating distances between cities

The route calculation is based on an algorithm for finding a path according to the shortest principle. Distances between cities by car are determined based on satellite binding of the coordinates of settlements and roads. As a result of reading all the data on the computer, the result is given as a simulation option. Don't be lazy when planning long trip take care of your backup options.

In practice, there are two main methods for calculating distances between settlements:

  • exclusively on existing roads, taking into account entrances;
  • in a straight line (like a bird flies - straight and free). The distance is less, but in practice it has no practical significance - there are no roads along this route.

Our program uses to calculate the distance between cities along highways, roads.

The distance calculation for autotravel routes is based on Dijkstra's Algorithm. This is an algorithm that calculates the shortest path by exact coordinates. settlements and the highways laid between them received from satellites. It breaks the entire path into segments with the same type of roads, measures the sum of the lengths of the road segments of each class. And sums up the average speed on each of the existing road classes.

All calculations are done by computer. The algorithm models its own road based on the received data, but then you yourself understand that such modeling cannot be perfect. Because extraneous factors always intervene - changes in roads as a result of man-made and natural interventions, repair of highways, extraneous circumstances.

Therefore, my advice to you - when laying a route and calculating distances, calculating the required amount of fuel and preparing a travel budget - always lay in additional reserve resources - money, fuel. time and strength

How else can you get a route and calculate the distance

Those who do not like such computer calculations and do not trust such services will probably wonder what can replace the Distance Calculation Service?

What can I advise them - only three options.

1. Buy a road atlas, find out the length of the route from it and calculate the travel time, the amount of fuel and the autotravel budget manually. Here you need to look at the year of issue of the atlas. and think what has changed on the track for recent times. Not an option))))

2. Lay your route on the map manually and measure its length with a thread (each bend) or with a curvimeter. Can be a line. but you know, it's more difficult. time will be spent much more. Also not an option

3. Find distances between cities and countries in the Web or reference literature and, based on these data, calculate the cost of fuel and its cost on your own or on a calculator. Travel time cannot be calculated. therefore, as a rule, the class of roads is not given in such collections. I personally don't like this option at all.

4. To go just at random, not knowing where there are gas stations, motels, roadside cafes and, most importantly, gas stations. Well ...... I sing glory to the madness of the brave))))) Especially if such madness is done when a family or a child is in the car.

Therefore, think for yourself, decide for yourself - to use the distance calculation service or not to use it. Ideal options to calculate the whole path simply do not exist!

and I'm just offering you the simplest, most time-consuming and more or less reliable way to make it easier to calculate the path of your auto trip.

Have a good road trip and easy roads!
