Organic Maps provide the users with powerful searching and navigation services in many countries. However, the built-in planner can only provide one route variant for each route search of a specific way of travel. The routes provided might be optimal in many conditions, but it cannot satisfy the requirements from all users. So, we need to modify the current planner (with built-in A* algorithm) such that multiple route variants with different features can be generated when the user wants to find a route. Deliverables: 1. A full stack implementation of the modified route planner that can generate different routes based multiple different criteria. 2. A detailed documentation of the features and their mechanisms
