[postgis-users] Routing with POSTGIS question

[Daniel Kastl]

For pgrouting you need to have a suitable road network and so you have to
use osm2pgrouting for example to split your long OSM roads.
If you want to know how cloudmade does, you probably need to ask them. But I
don't think they take a raw OSM file as it is either.

PS: you probably better ask on the pgRouting mailing list if you have
pgRouting related questions
