Hello all.
(And first: thanks to the ORS team and contributors for this great job!)
I’m using the bicycle routing on my project (POST https://api.openrouteservice.org/v2/directions/cycling-regular).
It works pretty well. However, I’m surprised with the durations calculated. The docs say that steepness of the way is considered, but I doesn’t seem to actually impact the travelling time. For instance, the following route (which goes uphill a lot) takes almost the same time when you reverse it: around 1 hour; whereas I would have expected something like 2hrs up, and 30min down.)
https://openrouteservice.org/map/#/directions/Saint-Geniez,France/Sisteron,France/data/{“coordinates”:“6.067265,44.228602;5.945306,44.185102”,“options”:{“zoom”:9,“profile”:“cycling-regular”,“preference”:“fastest”}}
I couldn’t find any parameter or option that should be specified in the api. Am I missing something ? Or maybe the feature is disabled on your public http service?
