Hi Marco, Like Arne, I believe that too many roads are mapped and it such semi-desertic open space, we should not map all the traces that we observe on the ground. The network of roads connecting between villages should be simplified. We should not see two, three higway=unclassified between two small villages.. Plus, it is essential that all these roads are connected one to the other (ie. they share a node) to let the routing softwares calculate properly the shortest distance.
On your image, the three residential areas are all part of Mula. People and cattle can walk in all directions. We dont need to had highway=path between these three residential areas. If we want to add paths or track going to fields, it is important to connect these ways to the rest of the network. If we zoom-out and observe the area, it is very difficult to understand the highway network. Too may roads classified highway=unclassified going from one village to the other. Also, the way coming from Madizo is a a dead end in Mula. It should be connected to other roads. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/507523499#map=15/11.9407/14.4975 Routing results Albineba to Mula show the detour the software are taking since they dont use the way from Madizo. https://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=graphhopper_car&route=11.9390%2C14.4631%3B11.9366%2C14.5037#map=14/11.9518/14.4886 regard Pierre De : Arne Kimmig <arnekim...@icloud.com> À : mbranco <mbran...@gmail.com> Cc : hot@openstreetmap.org Envoyé le : lundi 31 juillet 2017 10h50 Objet : Re: [HOT] landuse=residential and routing problems Hi Marco, Looking at your pictures I’d say that in both the highways are mapped too detailed. My suggestions for mapping these: -The main path is the one east of the res area. It is clear that it near to the res area and you don’t need to map every small access path to the village. -also the two small villages to the west are nearby and IMHO don’t need extra access paths mapped, May be they could be included to the existing res area -assuming that the path in the east leading out of the village leads to another village then, I think, it should be connected with the main path I mentioned above even we cannot discern it in the imagery. In such a case I assume a „virtual“ path meandering between the houses and connect it to the main path. I’m mapping also in #2768. Feel free to have a look at the squares in the NE edge of the project. Suggestions are always welcome. Best, Arne
