Probably the simplest distinction is that various programs treat
"unclassified" as a fast country road (eg, 100+kph), and "residential"
as a quiet residential street (eg, 50-60kph). Take your pick.
Could you provide some examples of such "various programs" because
this distinction is new for me.
So it means that a slow speed road serving industrial or retail areas
are for you "residential roads" ? My definition of residential road is
following what says the wiki "for roads accessing or around
residential areas", indepently of the speed limits.
that's the correct approach. explicit, accurate maxspeed values are best.
we as mappers have no control over how the different routing systems
select default speeds. we should not be making assumptions about that.
