v3 - turns out they handle ferry routes in a similar fashion as to unpaved roads so I've added support for avoiding them (when route=ferry tag is present) - untested here due to paucity of ferries in Cheshire but I have verified that the unpaved stuff still works. --------- v2 - sans syntax error --------- Bloody typical, you wait around for ages hoping for a new routing capability to be added to mkgmap and then two come along on the same day. I've been trying to discover how unpavedness is encoded for at least 6 months. Every now and again, I return to think about it some more. Check and re-check the same old data structures. Very frustrating, no progress. Damn those cunning bastards at Garmin.... However, a month or two ago, I discovered that Table C contains more than just turn restrictions. I still don't know many of it's little secrets but, today, having exhausted all other possibilities, I finally twigged that Table C contains the key to understanding "unpavedness". Gotcha! The attached patch allows you to add either unpaved=yes/true/1 or paved=no/false/0 to a way and then it will be ignored for routing purposes when the GPS has been told to avoid unpaved roads. Not sure if those are the best tags to use - any thoughts? BTW - the unpaved road line type 0x0a has nothing to do with unpavedness, it's just a routable way that gets drawn as a dashed line (default rendering). Feedback, etc. Mark
