Guided tour group rotation calculator

Calculate nonconflicting guided rotation and final tour completion with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use nonconflicting guided rotation and final tour completion to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Calculation method

Calculation method

Nonconflicting guided rotation (JSON)

Input-order groups choose earliest-free guide; each stop start=max(group arrival from prior stop,stop free); reserve guide until final stop end.

Final tour completion (minute)

Latest final stop completion.

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • All groups visit the same single-capacity stops in the same order; guide remains with group. Waiting between stops is permitted. Supported limits: All numeric inputs and computed intermediates must remain finite. Supported numeric input magnitude is zero or 1e-12 through 1e12 in absolute value; reject values outside this bounded range. All lists/JSON record tables are limited to 100 records unless a stricter bound is stated; reject malformed record arity and wrong member types. Group ready times nondecreasing; positive stop durations; guides 1..20; <=100 groups/stops. Fixed route and input group order; heuristic makes no minimum-wait claim.
