NAME Geo::Gosmore - Interface to the headless gosmore(1) SYNOPSIS First install gosmore(1), e.g. on Debian: sudo aptitude install gosmore Then build a gosmore.pak file: wget http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/europe/british_isles.osm.bz2 # pv(1) is not needed, it just shows you the import progress bzcat british_isles.osm.bz2 | pv | gosmore rebuild Then use this library, with $gosmore_pak being the full path to your new gosmore.pak. my $gosmore = Geo::Gosmore->new( gosmore_pak => $gosmore_pak, ); my $query = Geo::Gosmore::Query->new( flat => '51.5425', flon => '-0.111', tlat => '51.5614', tlon => '-0.0466', fast => 1, v => 'motorcar', ); # Returns false if we can't find a route my $route = $gosmore->find_route($query); my $distance = $route->distance; DESCRIPTION Provides an interface to the headless version of the gosmore routing library. When compiled with headless support it provides a simple interface to do routing. This library just parses its simple output and provides accessors for it. This is experimental software with an API subject to change.
