Having a delivery job really enables you to do some serious tracklogging indeed. Isn't every truck equipped with a company gps as well? If so, would it be possible to get an anonymized copy of available tracklogs? That would add an awful lot of traces...

Every DIAD board has a GPS unit in it, but I do not believe that they use tracks. They are just in there so the supervisors can see where you are at the moment, not where you have been. Even so, I don't have the authority to grab all the track logs, if they did track them.

Well, you could ask ... ;-)

Cool, I hope to be able to do some tests this weekend. Do you have a source or 64bit executable somewhere for download?

Ehhh.. It was not my intention to publish the source. And if I had that intention -maybe in the future- I first had to clean it up (undo from windows stuff and not for this project needed code and so on).

64 bit ?? I hear it now...

Compiled (a world of warning messages) and linked (not a single message; just refused(well until I got the right setup)) it under an old Mandrakre distribution which surely isn't 64 bit. Would that run on your system though ?

Further my plan was to first let you try it out before it becomes public. So I wanted to send you the executable, a runtime lib (an old mandrake c++lib. On two modern live systems the executable would not run because that needed library failed. I did not yet test with that library supplied), and for about four countries the transliteration table files and boundary .gpx files.

Ok, if you don't want to release the code that's ok, it's just that there are so many operating systems around that it might be simpler for you to provide the code instead of having to compile an executable for each os. For what it's worth, if your application works well then I can imagine that it would be really be appreciated if you'd supply the source, so others can use and contribute to it as well.

Sorry that I didn't tell you that my machine runs 64 bit (which I need because memory usage of many of the OSM applications requires more then 2GB), but afaik 32bit applications should work on a 64bit system. We'll see soon enough when I try.
