Hi Richard,

Are you aware if they have a terms of use for these services? I can't find any on the link you sent, or on the MapQuest Open Platform Web Services page. I have an academic research project that this is perfect for, but I don't want to abuse my privileges. :-)

Is there some kind of application that can help me with plotting the

Imagine a salesman, who has to visit 10 locations. Is there some
software that can assist me in visiting these 10 locations the smartest
and shortest way?.

Any pointers?.
This is called the "traveling salesman" problem. ;-)  Have a look at the wiki:

and the service built on OSM data at MapQuest
