I believe most GPS systems use path costing algorithms. Each road will have a time cost in terms of its length and its speed. The idea of the route planner will be to find the cheapest cost between the two points. There's a PDF here which has a section about routing algorithms: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~pr10/publications/cga00.pdf --- G O Jones _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
