Hi everyone!

I do some contributions to OSM and wonder why it’s not building “shortest” possible way (marked as green?

Also, will OSM - OrganicMaps\CoMaps will introduce any time soon ability for public transport routes?

I try OsmAnd+ but didn’t really like it 😥

Upd: Path is diffenetley mapped

Thanks

P.S. The BENCH IS DIFFENETLY NOT ON THE WAY

    So, two things are to consider here:

    1. Is the underlying OSM mapping data correct? This is something we can not deduct from the screenshot. If it is not to privacy violating you might share the exact location.
    2. Is the routing algorithm working correctly? Once we made sure that the underlying data is correct, we can see, if it is working. Then we could file a bug report if still something is off.

      I will share locations after ~7 days, will see if time load\change things a bit first For now bicycle on that trail works ok, but when i change to “walk” it does path that showed on picture, despite i added tag for trail walk - yes, bicycles - yes

    I’d say it depends on the heuristic of the path planning algorithm, eg. if road surface is taken into account and the road it chose is asphalt while the other one is dirt then that path makes sense.

    What application are you using to find this path? OSM in itself doesn’t do path planning if I’m not wrong, it’s just the map’s structured data

      Yes, there’s a dirt, but in another place not specified , but still, it does not put way… i also selected a line where OSM do lay path on - and it just same as mine 1:1 by parameters

      Logic of algorithm quite strange. It’s not an option of user somehow? Like i don’t mind if there’s a dirt, i just want cut my way to get faster from point A to point B

    It always takes a few minutes for the map to render the updates (and often requires you to clear the cache: on the browser at least). For the routing to take the new path into consideration, it usually takes about a day or something, so I wouldn’t be waiting for that; just try again tomorrow and it should work. ;)

    Which direction is the path? If it’s marked as a one-way road, it may not consider it. Or, as somebody else pointed out, the routing application might not have the up to date map. Give it a day or so.
