Hi!
I am the third year student who is currently working on the route
planner for cyclists. The idea is to create application which will
calculate the route based not only on cost weighted from road types and
distance, but also to employ SRTM elevation data and use it as the of
the factors in calculation process.
I am going to use OSM, and import it to Postgres with Postgis and
PgRouting Extension. Postgis because it can describe ways in 3d and
PgRouting because it already make a use of Postgis and contain routing
algorithms such as A* and Shooting*.
So, the question is: is there any similar project ready or under
construction? Are there any (commercial or not) applications out there
which do routing for cyclists? The only one I know of is
www.yournavigation.org.
I need this information for my background research and would be really
grateful for any help.
