Any plans for GIS map integration?

Hello,

there is more and more need for complex supply chain simulations. So far it was sufficient to put a map as a background image, but going forward it would be very handy to have a GIS map integration. It does not need to be Google maps, but any free online Geo Information System. It would be great to have search function for cities and the actual routing calculation between them. Also would be amazing to choose between walking, driving, train, vessel or airplane as mode of transport. So that transport and supply chain models can be very easily created in Flexsim as well.

Thanks, Kat

Please, create a post as an Idea (instead of a question) This allows others to vote on it. And it will be seen by the developers as a new idea.
