I just checked out the Royal Mail site and buying the data is not too
expensive if the service is then sold. After seeing the state of
market segment on this, I am thinking of offering a service for this
(I will target Rightmove!).

Do you know how the road data is stored and where? Is that
OrdnanceSurveys?

I guess this is it: http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/products/

So it is a matter of working out the vector distances I assume? I
assume someone has worked out a theory for that?
