Reply To: Updating Road Priorities in Rural Areas

Hi Mike, to elaborate on what Ben has posted so far – sort of unfortunately at the moment, indeed, the road types within Map Creator are currently being used globally and thus, are not necessarily applicable enough for all of our UK and Ireland countries. Along with that, the functional class system we use does not match as closely as it should to the road types and descriptions in Map Creator – to try and ensure it is as simple and straight forward for a Map Creator user, without going into our extensive internal specifications to ensure automotive grade. The ones you mention marked as ‘residential’ Mike would be ‘FC5’ and correct to the areas to have them as this functional class – for routing and navigation purposes primarily of course.
We are currently working on changes to the road types and their respective descriptions within Map Creator to try and reflect better each countrys specific road network.
Thanks
