By default this repository sets up routing for Jamaica. You can those by editing the file names on the gh-update.bat file and the docker-compose.yml file accordingly. By doing so, you can explore data from various regions using their corresponding .osm.pbf files. This data will then be utilized to generate a routing network for those specific regions. For downloadable data related to different areas, you can find relevant resources for example at http://download.geofabrik.de/. The default settings use car, foot, biking and hiking as travel modes. Change those in the gh-config.yml file.
For quick activation, the server will initially use historic routing data.
To use up-to-date routing data, run ./gh-update.sh on Linux or gh-update.bat on Windows.
The scripts are identical (hard linked) and perform the following tasks:
- Download new OSM data if needed
- Calculate new routing data
- Start or restart the GraphHopper server, as appropriate, with the new routing data
The scripts can also be run periodically or after changing the gh-config.yml file.
