[MAPSERVER-USERS] Routing Algorithm Confusion !

2008-05-15 Thread Ritesh Ambastha

Dear Readers,

I use Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm for route computation. I am
satisfied with the accurate result it gives. Still, I feel for road segments 
~ 200Million, the route computation will take a lot of time. So, is there
another algorithms exist as best practices for route computation(like
A*,TSP,etc)? Or, geeks write their own algorithm for route computation? 

Thanks and Regards,
Ritesh Ambastha

I guess there are several research papers on fast/quick routing on road
networks ... most of them modify dijkstra's ...
there are citations on *parallel* dijkstra's if you want to scale ..to large
number of nodes ...

Thanks
Sandeep

Thanks Sandeep, 

Yeah I know that there are few algorithms exist to solve this case. 
Please let me know few names(links) of good algorithms which are followed to
solve this problem

Regards,
Ritesh

Ritesh,

FWIW a long time ago I wrote a route finding algorithm for a  
commercial desktop mapping product (Personal Navigator I think it was  
called)
At the time I decided on the A* algorithm - which seemed to work quite  
well on the UK road data 1:5


I believe this is one of the algorithms available in the PgRouting  
package, although I haven't tested this implementation myself


regards
Tim
