I'm writing a program to prevent gerrymandering by providing an
objective clustering solution to the problem of redistricting voting
districts.
I'm programming on python or perl on Win7.
I have latitude/longitude data for the centroids of apx. 3000 census
tracts in my state (California).
I could use easily those to get great circle distances between tracts,
but that wouldn't take account of physical barriers, like mountains,
rivers, etc.
I would like to use osrm's drive time (or road distance) algorithm to
give me a more relevant distance metric. Is there some way it could be
callable from one of the programming languages I'm using. I understand
that python can also link to C subroutines.
Is there some way I could do that?
Another question: Is anyone interested in helping on this public benefit
project?
