Using Routino as a free offline route planner
|
Conclusion
For daily use, Routino shows itself to be very quick and reliable. However, you should keep in mind that the validity of this observation is based on a number of variables, including the OSM files that have been loaded to the database and the section of the map that is selected. For regions that are less well mapped, the program delivers quite meager results. For urban areas that have been mapped out in detail, the software generates reliable routes. The functional design and the ease of use for the tools make a positive impression. This is one of the reasons that the program QMapShack utilizes the tools for local calculations.
