Map update - closed road

openrouteservice directions
1

Hi all,

in OSM, a Street is currently inaccessible due to an construction for about an year.

In the direction-map, the closed road in not “active” by now.

Example:
https://maps.openrouteservice.org/#/directions/Freiwillige%20Feuerwehr%20Altenberge,Altenberge,Deutschland/Bahnhofstraße,Altenberge,Deutschland/data/55,130,32,198,15,97,4,224,38,9,96,59,2,24,5,192,166,6,113,0,184,64,118,0,232,1,96,21,148,226,6,96,17,128,26,82,2,100,32,6,98,205,96,110,35,136,3,154,128,217,251,224,9,204,34,163,30,60,27,210,108,212,179,6,205,243,240,172,217,191,98,194,66,209,1,0,3,170,120,17,19,97,202,15,116,8,0,205,224,1,183,75,132,44,104,240,1,185,32,14,96,22,128,5,135,215,218,32,22,232,86,232,208,232,136,96,14,120,225,144,0,182,113,17,176,232,176,129,250,134,198,166,230,150,54,246,0,250,122,200,208,200,113,89,32,225,152,168,46,96,25,38,184,160,62,200,0,94,113,104,184,86,200,182,152,232,0,190,125,58,77,80,113,184,212,60,125,64,0,0

How often is the map updated?

Hi @Ralf

Update interval, see e.g.:

Regarding your request:
it would be good if you provide the OSM id of the closed road, or at least the street name.

Best regards

Hi @amandus,

the closed road is “Boakenstiege” (Way: ‪Boakenstiege‬ (‪97413031‬) | OpenStreetMap)

Hi again,

I see, it will take some time for it to be reflected in the backend.
It will take at least until next monday or the week after, depending if your change is included in the osm data we used for building our graphs.

Hi,
by using the isochrone-service i have similar problems, maybe it’s also a problem in the map:

  1. 50.264765, 8.327465; Road is K714 from Esch to Steinfischbach; it looks like the road is defined as closed.
  2. 50.282539, 8.345146; Road is L3030 in the north of Steinfischbach; same problem
  3. 50.282539, 8.345146; in reality there is no problem to reach this point in 5 minutes. Maybe it’s a general problem.

Example:
https://classic-maps.openrouteservice.org/reach?n1=50.229796&n2=8.314333&n3=16&a=50.235597,8.311917&b=4a&i=1&j1=9&j2=3&k1=en-US&k2=km

Is there any chance to update the map?
Thank you!

Hi @Markus_Hies,

Probably due to this segment which has a tracktype of grade4 and should results in a speed of 15km/h for that segment. The tracktype doesn’t seem accurate.

However, it shouldn’t completely ignore the way. That would only be the case, if the highway value would be track as then the maxTrackGradeLevel of 1 would take effect for the hgv profile.

Removing the tracktype in the OSM data might already adjust the result. Will take time to reflect the changes in ORS though, as stated in previous responses.

Best regards

Thank you for your fast response. The 3 examples are classic roads between 2 villages or in a village.
I think “highway=service” or “highway=unclassified” would be correct.

Best regards!

Hi!

Comparing ORS with OSM maps, I found a difference.
Am Schellengraben, Wurzburg

ORS map shows a path, while OSM has stairs, which are actually there, so it’s inappropriate for a bike trip.

Hi Wolfgang,

thanks for your feedback! In fact, you can specify to avoid steps in the avoid features, see here.

Cheers,
