osm-routino

One Routino routing database over all your regions, for routes on foot

  • Version recorded: station
  • Categories: navigation-maps
  • Upstream: https://www.routino.org/
  • Needs first: osm-regions, routino

What it does

Builds one Routino database, prefix hammunition, over every region you have set: each region parsed in turn, then processed once, as the operator in a staging directory. Installed under /usr/local/share/hammunition/data/osm-routino/, where QMapShack's launcher points its Routino router.

Why you would want it

Routing on trails with no network. One database over all regions is what lets a route cross a region boundary, which Routino cannot do across two databases.

Before it will work

osm-regions with at least one region set, and routino. With no regions set this unit is deferred by name.

How it installs

  • converted from osm-regions by routino-planetsplitter (ODbL-1.0, https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright)

Known problems

One region that fails to parse fails the whole database, and the step names the region and why; the database already installed is left as it was. Measured on one region on 2026-09-28: parsing 22 s, processing 83 s, the database 0.67 times the download, and the staging directory peaking near 5 times it. Routino's foot profile does not read sac_scale. Whether a route across two regions' boundary works has not yet been measured on hardware.

Keeping it current

  • probe: none
  • strategy: reinstall
  • Rebuilt whenever the set of regions or any region's snapshot changes; otherwise left as it is.
