[This has already been announced on the talk-gb list, but obviously there is likely to be interest here as well.]
I have written a routing algorithm that uses OSM format data as its input and calculates either the shortest or quickest route between two points. You can select from any of the major OSM transport types (foot, bicycle, horse, motorbike, motorcar, goods, hgv, psv). For each of the OSM highway types (motorway, trunk, primary, secondary, tertiary, unclassified, residential, service, track, path, bridleway, cycleway, footway) you can select whether to use them and if so what speed limit. Restrictions on one-way streets, weight, height, width and length are also options. The router takes into account private/public/permissive restrictions on highways as well as tagged speed limits. What it doesn't do is barriers (gates, bollards) and turn restriction relations (which I have heard about but never seen). More information about the software and source code (Affero GPLv3 license) can be downloaded from here: http://www.gedanken.org.uk/software/routino/ An online demonstration of the router for the UK is available as well: http://www.gedanken.org.uk/mapping/router/router.html -- Andrew. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew M.
