Session
Turn OpenStreetMap data into routing insights with openrouteservice and QGIS, no servers, no sign-ups, no code.
In this 90-minute hands-on session for newcomers and intermediates, you’ll:
- See how OSM tags become a routable network and why popular routing engines offer directions, isochrones & matrices per default and what they do.
- Connect the ORS-Tools QGIS-plugin with the public openrouteservice API with API-keys we hand out on the spot.
- Build multiprofile routes around the SotM venue, calculate hospital service areas in Manila, and solve a medicine delivery to every of those hospitals with the help of easy to access vehicle optimisation.
You’ll walk away with a reusable QGIS project, a tutorial, and the confidence and knowledge to repeat the workflow anywhere, anytime.
