  The pgDijkstra algorithm assigns to each RoadSegment a unique EdgeID in graph. While assigning EdgeID, it expects that road segment start and end point to be unique.  This worked fine for our sample data (a small area of Basingstoke) but in London some road segments have the same start and end point (with a number of additional points in the middle which are different).

   

  For example two distinct road segments: 

  LINESTRING(524107.31 185330.493,524106.899 185325.348,524112.444 185319.119,524118 185318)

  LINESTRING(524107.31 185330.493,524111.088 185329.479,524111.761 185329.298,524117.382 185322.233,524118 185318)

   

  What can we do to overcome this problem?
