      intent: Calculate a travel time matrix between locations
      effect: read
      questions:
      - Can I get travel times and distances between every origin and every destination in one request?
      - Which pricing tier do I need for matrix routing in Azure Maps?
      - Is it possible to compute a route matrix for trucks with a given vehicle weight?

      effect: read
      questions:
      - How do I get turn-by-turn directions between two coordinates with Azure Maps?
      - Can I request alternative routes and avoid toll roads in a simple directions call?
      - What's the quickest way to get an ETA with live traffic for a route given as a coordinate string?
