Overview

The UIC Campus Geographic Graph System prompts users to input their given .osm file to use as the UIC campus. After, the users most imput the building they are starting at and the building they want to go to.

This application allows user to:

• Input their starting and ending UIC buildings on campus
• Automatically compute the shortest path to and from
