Title.
Enriching the Traveling Salesman Problem with GIS Facilities
Gloria Cerasela Crişan, PhD lecturer at the Faculty of Sciences,
Vasile Alecsandri University of Bacău, Romania.
Abstract.
The academic Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) benefits now from
the new features provided by the Geographic Information Systems
(GISs).
The solutions to such enriched TSP instances have more accurate
representations on Earth and can develop the connections between
the research in Combinatorial Optimization and Logistics,
Transportation, Geoinformatics and Geoengineering.
This work presents the first national GIS-enriched TSP instance,
its exact solution and its representation with an online free
tool.
