Re: How to tell OsmAnd to ignore a missed waypoint?

Dumb question: Does OSMand make a distinction between waypoints having the semantics of "this is my preferred route" and ones that have the semantics of "this trip has multiple destinations?" If indeed you have a trip where Alice wants to stop at point P to pick up Bob, and then proceed to their

Traffic controls - how to map?

I have a question about work that's largely upstream of OSMAnd, but I'm having trouble finding an effective place to ask. The question regards traffic controls, specifically STOP and GIVE WAY. I want to map an intersection where one way faces STOP signs, where the other way is uncontrolled.

Re: Route problems with gpx exported from JOSM

I'm not a cyclist, but I've had good success with exporting walking routes from waymarkedtrails.org. I give it the route relation, like https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id=4286650, and let it create GPX from it. On Sun, May 7, 2017 at 10:51 AM, wrote: > Think so

Re: Incorrect Altitudes

For what it's worth, a smartphone WITH a barometer (and an altitude correction model on board, which I think is wired into Location Services on Android) is quite a robust altitude indicator. The GPS altitude can be compared with the barometer, integrated over a very long time - relative to
