Biking and Hiking (Trails)
  • Vote Up0Vote Down wolfowolfo
    The original OSM-Maps contain a lot of biking/hiking-trails.
    Is it possible to make them visible in "Navigator Free" i.e.
    by changing some parameters in "album.style"?

    Additionally it would be perfect if they could be usable
    for navigation in the pedestrian-(biker)-mode.

    P.S.: Right now the footpaths (minor roads) have the colour blue
    and can be easily mixed up with small rivers ...

    Thanks in advance for your help - Wolfo

    You can use default colors - I think that blue ones are only in UK color scheme??

    Regarding the trails - if they have tag "highway" you should see them in Navigator and be able to compute route. If there is some global description like recommended trail from A to B than this is not converted yet.

    Thanks for your advice regarding the colour-scheme -

    I see the biking/hiking-trails now - as you wrote they look like highways

    and they act like them when navigating by car
    ...


    To bring more clearness in what I mean I attached the 2 follwing screenhots -
    1st is Navigator Free - the 2nd is the "offical" OSM-Map.

    Maybe there is a way to make the difference between trails and highways
    also visible in Navigator Free:

    I see - this is some other problem (!), sorry. Long time ago (several months) we added different drawers for footpath and stairway. Can you please delete your teleatlas.map and album.style (on PC in
    "c:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Navigator\11.0", on PDA/PND next to the application), so it will use newer defaults?
    I hope this will help
       please, let me know - thank you

    Thanks, I did it and the footpaths are marked red now which is
    in any case much better than blue or grey ;-)

    Anyway I would prefer the dotted lines used by OSM-Standard (screenshot above),
    so that footpaths or biking-trails cannot be mixed up with any kind of highways -
    what do you think about it?

    Kind regards - Wolfo

    You can experiment with teleatlas.map and album.style ... but these files become too big and may need revision. Not all drawers are possible ... but you may try it.
    thanks
