Hello Paul, I am certainly gonna try to create a route is OsmAnd but I prefer creating routes on a large pc screen and myrouteapp.com is very nice route planner. But importing always gives problems. For example, the version of the openstreetmap that myrouteapp.com uses is a little bit older then the version of OsmAnd. I found a difference in one route because of this.
I made two tracks with routepoints in myrouteapp.com. I checked the tracks on OsmAnd and improved the tracks The smaller track (100km) has some problems. It is not possible to let OsmAnd create a route that matches the track completely. The problem in my last message was easily solved by adding an extra routepoint. But there were other situations where OsmAnd insisted on an other route then the track. The longer track (400)km was easier. There were a numbers of problems that were easily solved my repacing a routepoint or adding a routepoint. There was only one situation were the route could not match the track and that was a situation were the map of myrouteapp was different from the map of OsmAnd. So OsmAnd is capable of showing the track on the screen and that looks good. Also OsmAnd is able to calculate a route based on the routing points in the gps-file. So why does is go wrong in the recalculating process. And recalculating is necessary because there could be roadblocks or other reasons to change the route. during driving. The problems mostly start after recalculating. But I also am going to try to let OsmAnd do all the work (no import). I let you know how it goes.
