title: ArcGIS Server - compare routes
body: <p>I've got a list of points, and a route that an external provider has generated through those points. </p>
  
  <p>I would like to generate a route using those same point with my own road network. </p>
  
  <p>Then I want to be able to detect if there is any significant difference between the two routes. </p>
  
  <p>One suggestion is that for the 2 routes, we find out what road segments they travel across, and compare the list of road segments?</p>
  
  <p>Is this a valid approach?
  How do we go about getting the list of road segments given a route?</p>
  
  <p>I am using ArcGis server 9.3 with Java 5 and Oracle 10g. I am using the ST functions and NetworkAnalyst via the java api.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
