That's great!

1. There is an open source database calles postgresql that had a module called postgis to store spatial data 2. postgresql has another "add on" calle pgrouting which enhances the postgis database with routing
3. There is a open source desktop GIS called qGIS
4. You can create webbased solutions with openlayers

I am lead developer for a dispatch-web- GIS (911 or 112 as it is called in the Netherlands) where we use this combination to show moving vehicles and do dynamic dispatching. For us this was all possible with a complete open source chain of products.

Kind regards,

Milo van der Linden
