Ronan,
Didn't I see that GRASS can do layers and it can also read SHP files?
I also believe that it can use the TIGRE data, in which case all of the
street data is in there, you just have to find the street data and
display it.
I am going to have to get GRASS going on a machine and start playing
with it.
By way I installed RH 9 told it to install the db stuff which is said
it did but then when I try to start either MySQL or PostrgreSQL, using
WebMin (I am remote from the machine that has the db stuff on it) it
comes back saying that it appears that the db has not been installed.
This is all new to mew getting a db up and running so I am going to
have to figure out what is going on there.
