Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Mapping at the border

[Alan Bell]

my expectation (informed speculation, no more than that) is that most
border crossings will be green channel crossings for people with nothing to
declare. Those crossing with goods to declare will have to use designated
red channel crossings and routes to somewhere they can place goods under
customs control for inspection and release into the market for general
circulation. The A5 crossing near 54.3999142,-6.9771758 would be a good
example of a place that might be suitable for a red channel crossing.

I expect there would be a mapping requirement for some of the changes, and
if I am right about what they do it might be worth thinking about how to
tag the crossings as green/red or whatever.

Alan.

Re: [OSRM-talk] getting into Oxford Street

[Alan Bell]

that is great thanks, I think it wasn't showing as pink because it isn't
fully isolated (it is a source, you can leave, but not get there) and it
was isolated by turn restrictions rather than barriers or one ways. I think
the facts on the ground are that it is only for buses and taxis, but I will
try and visit there at some point over the next few weeks and survey it
properly.
Off to London protesting against Brexit at the weekend, so maybe I will
have a quick peek then!

[OSRM-talk] getting into Oxford Street

[Alan Bell]

Hi all

there is a segment of Oxford Street in London from about the Park 
Street/Portman Street crossing to Regent Street where the turn 
restrictions prevent you from going straight on into it, or turning left 
or right from any of the crossing roads.


http://map.project-osrm.org/?z=15=51.514218%2C-0.130098=51.515313%2C-0.140419=51.514525%2C-0.147876=en=0

so without any one way street issues, this is an area of perfectly good 
road from which you can exit but never enter.


I am not entirely sure what the facts on the ground are (it isn't a very 
sensible place to be driving) but is there something that can be done in 
the profile or by editing the map to avoid that bit of road if it has 
actually been pedestrianised or something?

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] North Dock area of Dublin

[Alan Bell]

> what would you consider the modern 'North Dock' to be?
have to admit I am not a local, I just admin a system that sends delivery
vehicles there. My best guess is that it is the superset of the three
electoral districts, but I will see if I can ask the opinion of the drivers.

Re: [OSRM-talk] Erratic route(s) being returned via router.project-osrm.org

[Alan Bell]

oh, same issue I was reporting. that point is the closest road in 
California to your waypoints in Africa, it doesn't know about any roads 
inbetween at the moment.

Hi all,

The API is currently returning the same erratic route for any query 
(mostly in Africa).


The behaviour can also be seen at the demo site (Washington): 
http://map.project-osrm.org/


For example:

http://router.project-osrm.org/route/v1/driving/-24.8184,27.3306;-25.7449,28.1882

The way point location points to:

location:Array[2]
0:-114.129368
1:34.259809


Any ideas on when this will be resolved?

​thanks,

Johan
