[pgrouting-users] dijkstra for MANY sources

[Daniel Kastl]

Hi Brian,

I would use the pgr_drivingDistance function starting from your 11 schools
(containing the area of your 15.000 students):
http://docs.pgrouting.org/latest/en/src/driving_distance/doc/pgr_drivingDistance.html#pgr-drivingdistance

Then you get the distance for each point in your network area to each
school, and you jut need to select the school with the minimum distance.

Best regards,
Daniel
