Height truck and route calculation
  • When I create a vehicle type truck and set parameter height to 3 meters, MF still makes a route over a street with OSM max height of 2,5 meters. I am using win CE. What can I do to get a route without a street with max 2,5 meters height???

  • truck attributes are frequently missing in free maps, routing would not be reliable.
    you would need to buy professional TomTom maps .

  • Hi Pidie, can you tell the coordinates of this road?

  • Hi tomas,

    just as Pidie wrote: The road he mentions is correctly tagged in OSM with a height of 2.5 m. So it is not a problem with missing attributes in OSM but a problem with wrong routing in MFN.
  • it is also correctly tagged in Navigator and higher vehicles would not pass this restriction
    please check your vehicle settings
  • Even when I ceate a new truck vehicle with the standard parameters it will not work well
  • I am using free maps with version 25.0.0
  • as I wrote, truck attributes are frequently missing in free maps, routing is not going to be reliable
    that is not fault of Navigator, please go for professional TomTom maps if you need truck version
  • I understand Thomas. I only need it for a van i sometimes ride with a height of 3.3 mtr. Just want to find out how i can make it work.
  • you can contribute to OSM maps
  • Tomas, it seems you don't understand or don't want to understand: the road Pidie ist talking about is already tagged correctly with maxheight=2.50 since about 13 years. There is no other attribute to assign a height limit to a road, so why don't you accept that fact and that the error is MFN and not OSM.
  • I understand perfectly
    Navigator will recognise this restriction, providing licence key includes truck, which standard free maps key does not
  • Is my conclusion right that the OSM on MF does not have the data with hights of roads?
