=> Is anyone here working on an OSS route planner?
This is old news now, but I haven't seen it discussed here: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/09/happy-trails-with-google-transit.html Google Transit is actively adding cities, and asking for transit data from other cities. Cities don't have to pay anything beyond the cost of transforming their data to Google's format - which is under a Creative Commons. There are still some bugs, and GT sometimes suggest you walk on water: http://google.com/transit?f=q&hl=en&time=&date=&ttype=&q=930+nw+25th+pl+97210+to+4747+n+channel+ave+97217+8+am&ie=UTF8&z=13&om=1 The more competition in this area, the better. Already, GT is kicking some serious butt on UI alone. Is there any open source competition? I'm assuming Google's data format, being CC, will become the de facto standard for open source work. Does anyone have data in this format? Daniel. _______________________________________________ Geowanking mailing list [email protected] http://lists.burri.to/mailman/listinfo/geowanking
