  • KevNav UK Route Finder for RISC OS

    From Kevin Wells@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jan 6 21:46:10 2022
    Hi

    I have released a brand new application for RISC OS called KevNav a UK
    route finder.

    KevNav will give a route from one post code to another post code with
    the distance in either Imperial or Metric measurements and the
    approximate time it would take for either small private vehicles e.g
    small vans, cars or motorcycles and push bikes.

    The data can be saved as either plain text, html or kml file formats,
    and if an application that can read kml files like the excellent Risc
    OSM then a map of the route can be viewed.

    Only the shortest available route is covered at the moment but if the
    API changes to allow more options that will be looked at in future
    versions.

    It can be downloaded from:

    <http://kevsoft.co.uk/#KevNav>

    Or

    <https://kevsoft.wordpress.com/2022/01/06/kevnav-released/>

    It requires a working internet connection and wget to work:

    With the data coming from the Transport API site:

    I have also uploaded a short YouTube video of it in action:
