  <p>My goal is to run data analysis relating to food security issues within North American cities.  I want to run hundreds of thousands of routing queries. This is why I need the whole North American dataset.  I want to do comparisons between various cities.  My understanding of GIS &amp; node theory is sufficient and I'm a pretty good PHP coder, however my Linux skills/understanding are marginal.  Any help would be appreciated.  If someone has a VMware machine instance which I can get a copy of, that would also be a solution.</p>
