Marble routing in U.S.

Sat Apr 16, 2011 1:13 am
My understanding was that marble routing only worked in Europe until KDE
version 4.5 or 4.6.

I am unable to achieve routing in the U.S.

I'm running on FreeBSD 8.2 and KDE 4.6.2.

I'm trying to use Monav and I downloaded kentucky_motorcar and
indiana_motorcar, but it doesn't route.

FreeBSD doesn't have a port of gosmore. Marble has a gosmore routing
profile,
but does it depend on an install of gosmore?

Hi,

OpenRouteService is limited to Europe. It's the only backend used in KDE 4.5 and one of the backends in KDE 4.6 and later.

Yours (available in KDE 4.6 and later) works world wide, but the server stopped responding some weeks ago. Marble 1.1 (released outside of KDE in the last days) uses a different (albeit slower and less robust) Yours server therefore.

The offline routing backends (monav, gosmore and routino) all need the appropriate application installed alongside Marble: For monav that is monav-routing-daemon or MoNavD, the others have identical names. Note that for monav you need version 0.2, not a recent svn snaphot since the data format changed.

Did you checkout monav for freebsd from https://monav.googlecode.com/svn/tags/release-0.2 and compile it? The MoNavD application must be accessible in the PATH.
