R: Re: R: Re: [pgrouting-dev] pgRouting render

Steve,

my idea is to write my app in C/C++ but, for time reason, I could decide to
render my maps in a browser.
What is your advice?

Thanks,
regards.

Daniele,

as a follow on to my previous response, I would recommend starting with
the pgRouting tutorial if you haven't already worked through it:

http://www.google.com/#q=pgrouting+tutorial
http://www.google.com/#q=pgrouting+tutorial+foss4g

so you can understand some of the pieces and how they fit together, then
you need to decide how you can use these pieces in your desktop
application or if you need to replace one of them with something better
suited for your application.

My application is a desktop application, and I work on Fedora 14. How
your web application works?

So as a desktop application you have to decide if you want to build the
UI based on a browser application using something like I did or if you
want to code it in C/C++ or some other toolkit based language.

I will describe my web application, but for another direction you need
to ask how to do generic things for whatever toolkit you are using.

Browser
o OpenLayers
o mapserver
o render base map
o render vectors from routing DB
o ajax (PHP) to get route results
o make route request
o PHP gets request queries pgRouting
o PHP formats results as XML back to OpenLayers
o javaScript parse XML create route feature and populates directions

pgRouting does not currently do the driving directions. This is custom
code that I wrote for this application. I have explained how to do this
on the list so check the archives. You can look at the demo web page to
see how I glued OpenLayers and the Ajax requests together and in FireBug
you can view the XML streams of the Ajax request.

-Steve

Thanks, regards.

Thanks for the answer. Actually I'm using QuantumGIS, but I'd
like to use an engine like Navit.

Probably need to ask this on the QuantumGIS and/or Navit list. In
general, your question is given a polyline, how do I display that
in XXXXX?

pgRouting computes the route and gives you a polyline, the rest is
up to you to feed it into rendering package. Your rendering package
will depend on what you application development platform is, like
Web 2.0 or desktop application, iPhone or Android application, etc.
each of these will have different answers and constraints.

You can look a web application that I built here:

This has a lot of custom code added to pgRouting but pgRouting is
being used to compute underlying route.

Hope this helps, -Steve

Is this possible?

Thanks, best regards.

2011/6/21 danielerusso19@libero.it<danielerusso19@libero.it> Hi
all!

I would like to render my route (planned with pgRouting) in a
graphical way (2D or 3D, is the same). Is this possible? In which
way?

There are plenty ways to do so, but in the same manner as you
would render data in a PostgreSQL/PostGIS database, for
example:Mapserver/GeoservergvSIG, QGISOpenLayers (see the
workshop)Best regards,Daniel Thanks to all, regards.
