Getting the Shape Points of a Route
With the fetchRouteShape operation you can retrieve the shape points of each route segment of a calculated route. The shape points represent the route's geometry.
General structure of the operation in the WSDL file of the Map24 Routing Service:
...
<message name="fetchRouteShapeRequest" >
<part name="RequestHeader" type="tns:RequestHeader" />
<part name="FetchRouteShapeRequest" type="tns:FetchRouteShapeRequest" />
</message>
<message name="fetchRouteShapeResponse" >
<part name="FetchRouteShapeResponse" type="tns:FetchRouteShapeResponse" />
</message>
...
<portType name="Map24RoutingPortType" >
<operation name="fetchRouteShape" >
<input message="tns:fetchRouteShapeRequest" />
<output message="tns:fetchRouteShapeResponse" />
</operation>
...
</portType>
