[HOT] Disaster Routing

[kandler at gc-i.de]

Thanks for the input - much appreciated.

@Milo
Yeah, I thought about that. With the new ORS QGIS-Plugin one could  
easily set it up to work in QGIS, I assume. But I am not sure if an  
online API would be a good idea, given fragility of internet  
connections. One hour internet outage in a year would excellent  
service on behalf of the ISP - but in the wrong hour …

@Denis
Thanks for the hint about OSRM. I will check it out, certainly.

@Blake
Great ressource, I should've stumbled upon before turning to the list,  
but I appreciate it even more. Also, thank you very much for practical  
pointer - always preferable to have a starting point.

I will do some research and maybe prototyping. Maybe I can contribute  
back to the HOT community.


Thanks again & all the best
Thomas
