OpenStreetMap (abbreviated OSM) is a free, open geographic database updated and maintained by a community of volunteers via open collaboration. Contributors collect data from surveys, trace from aerial photo imagery or satellite imagery, and also import from other freely licensed geodata sources.
Local search (optimization) In computer science, local search is a heuristic method for solving computationally hard optimization problems. Local search can be used on problems that can be formulated as finding a solution that maximizes a criterion among a number of candidate solutions. Local search algorithms move from solution to solution in ...
Web Mercator, Google Web Mercator, Spherical Mercator, WGS 84 Web Mercator[1] or WGS 84/Pseudo-Mercator is a variant of the Mercator map projection and is the de facto standard for Web mapping applications. It rose to prominence when Google Maps adopted it in 2005. [2] It is used by virtually all major online map providers, including Google ...
Search algorithm. In computer science, a search algorithm is an algorithm designed to solve a search problem. Search algorithms work to retrieve information stored within particular data structure, or calculated in the search space of a problem domain, with either discrete or continuous values. Although search engines use search algorithms ...
Website. project-osrm.org. The Open Source Routing Machine or OSRM is a C++ implementation of a high-performance routing engine for shortest paths in road networks. Licensed under the permissive 2-clause BSD license, OSRM is a free network service. OSRM supports Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, and Mac OS X platform.
Geohash is a public domain geocode system invented in 2008 by Gustavo Niemeyer [1] which encodes a geographic location into a short string of letters and digits. Similar ideas were introduced by G.M. Morton in 1966. [2] It is a hierarchical spatial data structure which subdivides space into buckets of grid shape, which is one of the many ...
GraphHopper is an open-source routing library and server written in Java and provides a routing API over HTTP. [1] It runs on the server, desktop, Android, iOS or Raspberry Pi. [2][3] By default OpenStreetMap data for the road network and elevation data from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission is used. The front-end is open-source too and ...
2-opt. In optimization, 2-opt is a simple local search algorithm for solving the traveling salesman problem. The 2-opt algorithm was first proposed by Croes in 1958, [1] although the basic move had already been suggested by Flood. [2] The main idea behind it is to take a route that crosses over itself and reorder it so that it does not.
