Recently a new “
OSM Tools
Plugin” for
QGIS had been developed by Nils
Nolde. It replaces the original
OSMroute plugin for QGIS by
Riccardo Klinger, which is now deprecated, as he unfortunately
lacks the time to maintain it. Thanks a lot to Riccardo and Nils
for their wonderful efforts and contributions so far!
The new
“OSM Tools” Plugin is compatible
with the
recently introduced new ORS API.
The plugin provides some of the most relevant functions of the
ORS API for QGIS users, such as
geocoding/reverse gecoding,
routing, as well as
accessibility analysis (i.e. creating an
isochrone map). The ORS API is continuing to grow with many
further options that can be integrated into the open source
plugin.
Have some fun with using ORS from your favourite GIS
System.
