Abstract
This work shows the application of the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (CVRPTW) to collect different cargo-demand in several locations with low time disponibility to attend any vehicle. The objective of the model is to reduce the routing time in a problem with mixed vehicle-fleet. The initial step is the creation of a distance matrix by using the Google Maps API, then cargo capacities for every vehicle and time-windows for every demand point are included in the model. The problem is solved with Google-OR tools using as firt solution aproximated algoritm and as second solution one metaheuristic algorithm for local search.
