Heya, congrats on getting on the HN front page! I'm Bence, one of the judges from hack.travel, where I believe this project originated. (Note for bystanders: the project got first place at that hackathon.)
I wonder what's been up with the project and why the sudden activity? Have you been doing anything cool behind the scenes?
- mfbx9da4 6y agolol no and thanks! I recently posted an email validator I built about a year ago with not much thought https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25440220 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25440220 Today, I noticed my github stars went through the roof on that repo so I thought I should probably post some of my other repos too!
- karussell 6y agoKudos - well done :) If you still like the topic of path finding you can checkout GraphHopper - we always look for contributors :)
- peterburkimsher 6y agoGraphHopper is great, especially for Map Matching. The IoT startup I work for in New Zealand was struggling with fuzzy-matching routes with Google Maps and ESRI. When I tried GraphHopper, it gave excellent results, and when I had more questions, email replies were extremely punctual. Another friend in Germany is using GraphHopper for some research on tram lines. So just to echo what karussell says: GraphHopper seem like a great team, with wonderful tech and friendly people. So if you have an interest in maps, it's worth chatting to them!
