# Route

In Routes, you can evaluate the feasibility of missions along a defined path. By leveraging the same evaluation tools—[NOW](/nova/missions/results/now.md), [AWARE](/nova/missions/results/aware.md), and [CAST](/nova/missions/results/cast.md)—you’ll receive an in-depth analysis of flight feasibility, along with an overview of your set limit parameters.

In addition to weather parameters, the Route evaluation also provides information on the energy levels during each flight phase, as well as your height [AMSL](/nova/glossary.md#amsl) through an altitude profile.

When [creating a Route mission](/nova/get-started/create-a-new-mission.md), you can set waypoints and altitudes as needed, allowing you to design complex flight paths that are perfectly tailored to your flight profile.

{% hint style="info" %}
Unlike Local-Flight and Multi-Location missions, where weather data is retrieved from predefined altitudes, in Route missions, the weather data is determined based on the flight altitude.
{% endhint %}

## Use cases

Scenarios for which this mission type is suitable could include:

* **Infrastructure Inspections**: Inspections of power lines, pipelines, and other infrastructure along specific routes.
* **Surveying**: Data collection along defined routes for mapping and planning purposes

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.unisphere.io/nova/missions/types/route.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
