Introduction
===============================================================================

pgRouting is an extension of `PostGIS <https://postgis.net>`__ and `PostgreSQL
<https://www.postgresql.org>`__ geospatial database and adds routing and other
network analysis functionality. A predecessor of pgRouting – pgDijkstra, written
by Sylvain Pasche from `Camptocamp <http://camptocamp.com>`__, was later extended
by `Orkney <http://www.orkney.co.jp>`_ and renamed to pgRouting. The project is
now supported and maintained by `Georepublic <https://georepublic.info>`__,
`Paragon Corporation <https://www.paragoncorporation.com/>`__ and a broad user community.

pgRouting is part of `OSGeo Community Projects <https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Community_Projects>`__
from the `OSGeo Foundation <https://osgeo.org>`__ and included on `OSGeoLive <http://live.osgeo.org/>`__.
