Estimate Driving Time & Distance for Logistics with OpenRouteService

Automates truck route calculations from Google Sheets using OpenRouteService API, fetching distance, duration, and steps for logistics optimization.

This n8n workflow streamlines logistics operations by integrating Google Sheets with the OpenRouteService API to estimate driving time, distance, and route complexity for truck shipments. It reads departure and destination coordinates from a spreadsheet, processes each route pair via a loop, queries the API with a 'driving-hgv' (heavy goods vehicle) profile tailored for trucks, extracts key metrics like distance in meters, travel time in seconds, and number of route steps, then updates the sheet
