Routers can't then tell their users how long it is going to take without that data. As far as I know we don't have schedule capability within OSM and it is something that the routers have not pulled not even the big G. The big G is listing the route as being "Mon-Sun: 7 AM–11:30 PM · every 60 min" This is a safe comment even though the schedules change seasonallyI agree. However, it would be nice to have it show the route. Somehow we can route via bus using GTFS. I wonder if ferry routes have a similar spec?
and there are places (for example, Ocracoke Island on the outer banks) which are only accessible via ferry and thus can't be routed to by apps that don't handle ferries. richard -- [email protected] Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search
