Energy efficient routing for electric vehicles

What is GreenNav

Green Navigation (abbreviated as GreenNav) provides driving directions for electric vehicles and predicts their cruising range. It is a client-server system: The client provides a platform independent web interface written in JavaScript. The server offers access to specialized algorithms written in Java via a REST interface. The aim of the project is to provide various tools for electric vehicles. There are two sides to the project:

For Drivers

On one side, we want to provide drivers of electric vehicles with practical solutions, that is, with optimal driving direction for their route. For that we are developing a platform independent navigation system.

For Scientists

On the other side, we want to develop tools for scientifically analyzing algorithmic solutions. For that we are developing tools for visualization of algorithms, for comparing their performance, we want to provide a generic API for custom algorithms and a lot more.

Ideas

Instead of working towards a specific electric vehicel, we want to leverage machine learning to derive the parameters automatically, getting better with every route.
