[OpenLayers-Users] Formatting Routing Directions from Tiger data PostGIS

[Erik Uzureau]

Hi Chris,

Out of curiosity, what sort of system is providing your data?

I'm really interested in making working solutions to routing in
OpenLayers and have been talking with different people about some
strategies for doing this.

Would be interested to know what sort of system you are using. Is it OLS? [2]
Do you know about pgRouting? [2]

OGC Open LS standard in used by a lot of vendors, as you can see in
the OLS implementations page of OGC site:
http://www.opengeospatial.org/resource/products/byspec
and a lot more are going to implement this stardard in next year,
according to OGC studies:
