Output
Cost-quantified plans

Operations research on real city data: plan a drone reconnaissance flight over Montreal, then route snowplows to clear the detected snow — a Chinese-postman-style optimization over OpenStreetMap road graphs.

Cost- and time-constrained variants are solved and compared, with generated route plots and a written cost analysis for each borough.
