Field Details

• isDirtRoad

  public boolean isDirtRoad

  Indicates whether the navigable segment is paved. Paved is primarily used for map display and routing by assigning higher penalties to unpaved roads. Paved roads are made of concrete, asphalt, cobblestone or brick. Unpaved roads do not have a solid surface, e.g. are made of gravel, dirt or grass.

• isTunnel

  public boolean isTunnel

  Identifies an enclosed (on all sides) passageway through or under an obstruction. This attribute can be used for display or route guidance.

• isBridge

  public boolean isBridge

  Identifies a structure that allows a road, railway, or walkway to pass over another road, railway, waterway, or valley serving map display and route guidance functionalities. Bridge is published on segments that represent significant bridges and/or overpasses; elevated roads are not published as bridge.

• isRamp

  public boolean isRamp

  Range is a ramp: connects roads that do not intersect at grade. Ramp allows explication of maneuvers involving ramps (e.g., “Take the ramp”) and for route guidance when determining if sign text should be used.

• isControlledAccess

  public boolean isControlledAccess

  Controlled access roads are roads with limited entrances and exits that allow uninterrupted high-speed traffic flow. For example, the Interstate/Freeway network in the United States or the Motorway network in Europe. Controlled Access can be used for map display, avoidance of freeway/motorway, publishing speed limits, and route guidance timing.

• isPrivate

  public boolean isPrivate

  Private identifies roads that are not maintained by an organization responsible for maintenance of public roads. Allows for unique cartographic representation of roads that restrict public use. May be used to avoid routing through a private road.

• isNoThrough

  public boolean isNoThrough

  Identifies a no through road. This can also be a part of the route you can only enter or leave if it’s a waypoint.

• isTollway

  public boolean isTollway

  Identifies a road for which a fee must be paid to use the road. Tollway may be used for map display (e.g., different rendering of toll roads) and routing. Tollway is flagged on roads that require a fee for traversal.

• isDividedRoad

  public boolean isDividedRoad

  Indicates if there is a physical structure or painted road marking intended to legally prohibit left turns in right-side driving countries, right turns in left-side driving countries, and U-turns at divided intersections or in the middle of divided segments.

• isRightDrivingSide

  public boolean isRightDrivingSide

  Indicates if vehicles have to drive on the right-hand side of the road or the left-hand side. For example, in New York it is always true and in London always false as the United Kingdom is a left-hand driving country.

• isRoundabout

  public boolean isRoundabout

  Indicates the presence of a roundabout.

• isBuiltUpArea

  public boolean isBuiltUpArea

  Indicates if the navigable segment is a built up area.
