Wasn’t sure how to search for this as didn’t know what it would be down as.
Just out of interest and maybe help with a UR and for future reference, what the best way to deal with a group of houses which are onto a main road but have a collective name? So you might have Hook Road as the main road but then have 6 houses called 1-6 spring gardens. Is it best just to create a private road (something like I have on my attached screenshot) off the main road and then name that? Would you list it as Spring Gardens, Hook Road or just Spring Gardens in the street name field?
Just want to be absolutely clear on this because I always have to check when mapping these. @ianhouse suggests to use a Walking Trail but the example on the Wazeopedia page shows a Pedestrian Boardwalk. You can tell by the colour of it. My example is similar - I’m mapping a couple of houses which have different addresses to the main road.
Walking Trail is actually the non-localised name of all Footpath types so Iain may be generalising…
The UK Wazeopedia page does state the difference between the 2 and why Pedestrian Area (Pedestrian Boardwalk) is preferable for parallel mapping. When using a Pedestrian Area (Pedestrian Boardwalk) the suggested route will take you to the closest point on the routable segment that is in line with the footpath of a different name.
Using a Footpath (Walking Trail) in parallel to a routable segment may allow the app to place the user on the Footpath (Walking Trail) segment if GPS accuracy is poor, causing unwanted / confusing instructions. The suggested route will only take the user to the end of a Footpath (Walking Trail) as it expects to be able to route along it.
