Hi,
I was able to install drupal 8 successfully but now I'm stuck at the next hurdle. I want to build a little advanced route builder. Basically, you select two addresses on a map, and the Drupal CMS calculates the trip, based on the selected mean of transport (Car, foot, public transport). There should also be a generated report of the route, which is available as an email or PDF. It would be nice to include additional information into the report, for example gas station, restaurants or shops on the way.

Does somebody have an idea if there is a Drupal module to support me with this task oder how to tackle this quest?

Thank you for your support.

As far as I know (I am pretty familiar with google maps and mapping in general in Drupal, but I could be wrong), there is nothing that will give you exactly what you want. You are going to have to code something yourself using the google api. There are two modules that do part of what you want but it is only going to show the map part. But it will be a start for you.
