INTRODUCTION

pgRouting extends the PostGIS/PostgreSQL geospatial database to provide geospatial routing and other network analysis functionality.

This library contains following features:

• All Pairs Shortest Path, Johnson’s Algorithm
• All Pairs Shortest Path, Floyd-Warshall Algorithm
• Shortest Path A*
• Bi-directional Dijkstra Shortest Path
• Bi-directional A* Shortest Path
• Shortest Path Dijkstra Family of functions
• Shortest Path Dijkstra Cost Family of functions
• Driving Distance
• K-Shortest Path, Multiple Alternative Paths (Yen's algorithm)
• Traveling Sales Person (TSP)
• Turn Restriction Shortest Path (TRSP)

Additionally, ready for testing and to be part of 2.5 official version:

• Shortest Path Dijkstra With Points Family of functions
• Shortest Path Dijkstra Cost With Points Family of functions
• Driving Distance With Points
• K-Shortest Path With Points, Multiple Alternative Paths (Yen's algorithm)
• Dijkstra Via (Vertices)

and many more.

Family of functions include:

• one to one
• one to many
• many to one
• many to many
