[pgrouting-users] best/fastest way to calculate thousands of trsp routes

Thanks Steve

The function to get the source and target points on to the nearest edges gives a much better result than using nearest node.  Now I just need to work out how to get the geometry of the route from these projected points.

Thanks very much for the help

Ross

Yes, this sounds reasonable.

Here is a function that might be useful, or you might modify it for your specific needs. tol is maximum search distance in degrees, you can estimate this degrees = meters/111120.0. It returns the edge_id, pos on the that edge and these can be used to args to trsp.

create or replace function pointToEdgePos(edge_table text, lon float8, lat float8, tol float8, OUT edge_id integer, OUT pos float8)
     returns record as
$body$
-- ASSUMPTIONS
-- * edge_table as columns "gid" and "geom"
-- * edge_able.geom uses srid=4326
declare
     rr record;
     pct float8;
     pnt geometry;
     geom geometry;

begin
     -- create a point from lon, lat
     pnt := st_setsrid(st_makepoint(lon,lat), 4326);

     -- set the error condition
     edge_id := null;
     pos := -1.0;

     -- find the closest edge within tol distance
     execute 'select * from ' || _pgr_quote_ident(edge_table) ||
             ' where st_dwithin(''' || pnt::text ||
             '''::geometry, geom, ' || tol || ') order by st_distance(''' || pnt::text || '''::geometry, geom) asc limit 1' into rr;

     if rr.geom is not null then
         -- deal with MULTILINESTRINGS
         geom := rr.geom;
         if geometrytype(geom)='MULTILINESTRING' THEN
             geom := ST_GeometryN(geom, 1);
         end if;

         -- project the point onto the linestring
         pos := st_line_locate_point(geom, pnt);
         edge_id := rr.gid;
