Re: [algogeeks] Project on finding an optimal route given a map.

@Anand:
 Let me know your input we can modify it accordingly.
I have already mentioned it in previous posts.. for your sake I ll do it
again..
Input is a a map of a small area..(some college campus)..it can be in the
form of an image, osm format (www.openstreetmap.org) or in the kml format (
maps.google.com) for that particular region...
So creating distance matrix is the problem.. I do not want to do it
manually(ie finding the distance of each node/dept from other nodes manually
and then updating the distance matrix).. so i was thinking of writing an
algorithm which takes the input and creates the distance matrix... which is
the main challenge in this project.
I request you to join the group..(http://groups.google.co.in/group/*
optiroute* http://groups.google.co.in/group/optiroute ) so that we discuss
about this there..instead of spamming this group..

@Sidhartha: we will face following problems if we use open Route Service:
  1) we ll have to zoom in to the place everytime we
open/refresh the page.
  2) and the main thing is it works only for Europe.
thanks for the help by the way. why dont you also join the group..

 I have a map..of a small area (say a college campus).. in
 OSM(openstreetmap) format or it could also be in kml (google map) format..
 Now the application is supposed to take two points on the map as input and
 display the optimal/shortest route between them..
 For ex: consider any college campus.. user enters ITY dept as the source
 and CSE Dept as the destination.. then our application is supposed to
 display the shortest/optimal path.
 We can also take into account the modee of transport..
 Right now.. I am going through the OSM maps.. my idea is to classify the
 map into nodes, ways etc.. then applying the algorithm to find the shortest
 path..
 The problem which i am facing is to classify the map into nodes, ways,
 finding out the distance between each node..
 some of you might be having a better idea in implementing this... I request
 you to share it here..


Have you looked at Open Route Service ?  I think it would solve most of your
problem. If it doesn't please elaborate what are its deficiencies or
drawbacks.




 Guys we have discussed lot of algos here.. but this requires the
 application of whatever we have learned...so please come forward and lets
 implement this...
 hoping for a positive response...

 Regards,
 Abhishek

When you have learned to snatch the error code from the trap frame, it will
be time for you to leave.

@ Abhishek,

Initially to start with let's take every Dept as Nodes and find the shortest
route between them. if this works we can extend it further for other areas
also.
