2. Identify the role that each leg of the journey plays (e.g., pick-up, line haul, delivery, etc.).
3. Identify the mode of transportation that is likely used.
4. Explain the routing between origin and destination (e.g., how much of a straight line between origin and destination).
5. Analyze the efficiency of the routing (e.g., why the company likely chose this routing).
