Thanks :)
I'm not really sure how to work things yet, if you have the code for searching
street names it would be a good place to start. From there, selecting a street
and clicking 'select target' would fire up the routing functions, create a
track file and load the track file.
Other than formating the results into a track file, all this should use the
functions already in place and a few sql commands so it seems the simplest
place to start.
Having a look at tsearch2 at the mo, the database still needs lots of tidying
so now would be the time to get some advanced search functions in there too.
Searching for street names, then using the results to search for nearest towns
etc. will be a resource hog, the database is going to take a long time to
build no matter what so may as well add a few more hours to enable fast
searches. Also have to keep in mind some kind of framework for directions, ie.
'take the next left, roadname, roadnumber', the tsearch tables may be useful
here.
I'm happy working away at this and learning quite a bit doing it, but it
really needs someone who knows databases to check the layout when it's ready
for testing, it seems to me I'm entering the same stuff 3 times in slightly
different formats :)
cheers
