RIGIS Routing + Mileage includes both a User Interface and Application Programming Interface (UI/API) and is built by authoritative data from railroads, with data updates quarterly (at a minimum).

Key features of the application include:

  • Data spanning the entirety of North America
  • Ability to search an origin/destination pair
  • Displays viable routes, carriers involved, and breaks down miles traveled in each state
  • Ability to enter preferred carriers to increase the accuracy of the route
  • Ability to build your own route by selecting multiple routing locations
  • Option to include required junctions at interchange locations, creating a more intelligent route

All of the functionality in the UI is accessible through the API, including the ability to return the route geometry.
