Research Routing rendering options #23

Open jmankhan opened 7 years ago

jmankhan commented 7 years ago

KML files seem to be the popular option.

Look into open source routing renderers and see how they do it. Remember we don't want general navigation, more just rendering preset paths.

We may need to include an image processing module to accommodate this, so keep that open as well.

Current plan: Create a KML file that will basically be a list of GPS coordinates some x meters apart (probably 10 or 20). Detect if we are within range to render said point, and render any pavement in those bounds. KML provides additional metadata options like shape tracking, so we can account for intersection as well I believe. Let's focus on straight lines for now. We will also need to consider out of view pavement, e.g. tall grass or rock blocking path.
