Graphast is a framework tool that allows developers to compose a number of network models, data importing/exporting services as well as query services, in order to quickly build applications on time-dependent networks. The main goal is to allow developers to implement solutions to different types of problems on time-dependent networks using spatial queries, such as nearest neighbor queries, optimal sequenced routes, etc. Graphast allows the combination of facilities provided by the framework via a public API and/or the building of new facilities, e.g., a new query processing algorithm, and incorporate those into Graphast for others to use them as well. In this paper, we discuss Graphast's architectural components and how one can create/store instances of those components in order to build an application. The steps necessary for building a real world application are also presented.
