[mkgmap-dev] Driving on Trail

Mon Nov 17 11:37:01 GMT 2014

Hi Gerd,

Here's an example area:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/305805056#map=19/41.27951/-73.49803

The sidewalks are generally parallel to the road, but are sometimes set
back quite a way, as is the case on Main Street. The planned route won't
send me onto a sidewalk, but if I'm driving without a route set, it will
try to place me onto the nearest street. I thought the following rule would
disallow this when not in pedestrian mode:

highway=footway|highway=path|highway=steps [0x16 road_class=0 road_speed=0
resolution 23]

I haven't tried putting the nuvi into pedestrian mode, but I'm assuming it
would try to route you on these types of roads.
