Introduction

pgRouting is an extension of PostGIS and PostgreSQL geospatial database and adds routing and other network analysis functionality. A predecessor of pgRouting - pgDijkstra, written by Sylvain Pasche from Camptocamp , was later extended by Orkney and renamed to pgRouting. The project is now supported and maintained by Georepublic , iMaptools and a broad user community.

pgRouting is part of OSGeo Community Projects from the OSGeo Foundation and included on OSGeo Live .
