[Routing] Need info about route planners

[Daniel Kastl]

Hi,

Probably you will get a response of several projects, so I will do for
pgRouting:

> - can it's code be accessed for being modified in order to develop new
> services?
svn checkout http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/svn/pgrouting/trunk
It's GPL.

> - can it be used with different maps (google maps, yahoo maps, osm,
> custom maps, etc) or is it associated to one map type?
It's a library and made to work with PostgreSQL/PostGIS and it's up to
you how you want to use it.

> - can it's routing core be modified for offering routes in public
> transport?
Yes, it should be possible. I heard that Camptocamp (a company) is
working on this currently.

> - is there any route planner around the world who uses any of this
> planners?
Probably more than I'm aware of. If you find some more, you could add
theme here: http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/wiki/pgRoutingDemo

> - can they be used for developping a web service?
Yes. http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/wiki/tools/WebRoutingService

>
> Any other additional information will be wellcome!!

You're welcome.
